Location of Tarroco Island in the Orange Archipelago

Tarroco Island (Japanese: バンペイユ島 Banpeiyu Island) is an island in the Orange Archipelago. It is a large island that is strictly a 'No-capture zone', meaning Pokémon cannot be captured around the area. A lot of its houses are similar in design to the ones on Mandarin Island South, but newer. An Officer Jenny patrols the streets of Tarroco Island.

Because the island is a 'No-capture zone', it is a very common place for pirates to appear and poach the Pokémon on the island.

Its English name refers to the tarocco (blood orange), while its Japanese name is another term for the pomelo.
