The Orange Archipelago (Japanese: オレンジ諸島 Orange Archipelago) is a large chain of tropical islands shown in the anime that is located south of the Kanto region. Pokémon Trainers come here to participate in the Orange League, but its tropical climate also attracts many tourists. One effect of the climate is the presence of alternately colored Pokémon.
Most of the scattered islands in the archipelago are named after types of oranges (or other various citrus), but many are deserted.
The Officer Jennys and Nurse Joys of the archipelago dress in slightly different attire than those of the other regions. Some also appear to have tans.
This region appears only in the anime and the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga. It is not accessible in any of the games.

League
- Main article: Orange League
Only four Orange League badges are required to participate in championship competition, held on Pummelo Island. Unlike Gyms in other regions, the Orange League requires participants to complete challenges for the leaders of the Orange Leauge, the Orange Crew. However, Luana and Drake's challenges are to compete in a double battle and a full team battle respectively. Double battles where not introduced yet, so the fact that Launa's challenge was a double battle would have been a challenge for any inexperienced trainer, however Ash Ketcum has had many double battles with Team Rocket, so he defeated Luana with relative ease.
