Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs (ポケモンレンジャー 光の軌跡 Pokémon Ranger: Locus of Light) is a spin-off action-adventure game for the Nintendo DS and the sequel to Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia. It is part of the Pokémon Ranger series of spin-off games.
Basic information
- The game takes place on the archipelago known as Oblivia.
- The antagonists are a group of Pokémon kidnappers known as the Pokémon Pinchers.
- Non-player characters from the first two games, Professor Hastings and Murph, make appearances once again.
- Players are partnered with the Ukulele Pichu (Japanese: ウクレレピチュー).
- The legendary beasts, the legendary birds, Celebi, and Latios/Latias play important roles in the game.
- Special downloadable missions allow players to receive a Deoxys, whose form is determined by how fast it's captured (multiplayer only), a Manaphy egg, a Shaymin met in a fateful encounter, and a Heatran with Eruption to their Generation IV games.
New features
- The Ranger Sign feature allows players to draw runes on the ground to summon Pokémon, such as the three Legendary Beasts and an Eon Pokémon.
- Pokémon now also appear on the field for Poké Assists, and they maintain the Assist until they are attacked.
- Certain targets now require the use of Field Moves by multiple Pokémon.
- Up to four players may tackle missions together via a multiplayer mode. These missions are accessible after Celebi takes the player into Oblivia's past.
- Certain Pokémon now have the Fly Field Move, which allows the player to roam Oblivia's Sky and capture various Template:Type2 Pokémon. By speaking to Supurna in the Aqua Resort, Pokémon captured in the Sky can be added to the player's party. It is also possible to fly directly to locations that the player has already visited.
- Occasionally the player will be required to play with their DS vertically to complete certain tasks.
- Sometimes, wild Pokémon will be "agitated" and the player will need to deplete an agitation meter with Poké Assists before it can be easily captured with the Capture Styler.

Trivia
- This game bears slight similarities to Pokémon 2000, taking place in an archipelago, and the plot involves waking the Legendary Bird Trio which causes havoc and a member of the Tower Duo (in this case Ho-Oh) is needed to quell the birds. This birds even dwell on their own islands. Faldera Island houses Moltres like Fire Island does in the movie, Sophian Island houses Articuno just like Ice Island, and Zapdos dwells within Layuda Island in the game just like it's home was Lightning Island in the movie.
