Pokémon World Locations

Iron Island (Japanese: こうてつじま Steel Island) is an island off of the northwestern coast of Sinnoh, which is only accessible by boat from Canalave City.

It was once a prosperous ore mine, but was shut down after the ore reserves dried up. Since then, it was kept open as a training area and habitat for wild Pokémon. Byron, Riley, and the members of the Canalave Gym come here to train, as did Roark in his childhood. Galactic Grunts are also found within the abandoned mine.

Riley

When entering Iron Island for the first time, Riley will offer to travel through the mine with the player, participating in wild double battles with his Lucario. At the end of their travels, he will give the player a Riolu egg, if the player has a space for it in his/her party; if not, he will wait until the player returns with an empty space. Like all stat Trainers, he will fully heal all of a player's Pokémon after each battle.

In the anime

Iron Island was featured in the anime in Steeling Peace of Mind! and Saving the World From Ruins! where Team Galactic, led by Mars, was trying to activate the ruins present in the island with the Spear Key to search for Spear Pillar in Mt. Coronet.

Trivia

• Worker Noel calls himself as a "working class hero", which may be a reference to John Lennon's song Working Class Hero.
• The island has the same chemical compound as Veilstone City's meteorites.
