| Debut | The Evolutionary War! |
The A-B-C Islands (Japanese: イロハ諸島 Iroha Archipelago) are an anime-exclusive group of islands off the coast of Hoenn that appear in the episode The Evolutionary War!. The islands are located between Lilycove City and Mossdeep City.
Trainers who live on the islands have a rivalry with each other: one group believes Huntail are stronger and another group believes Gorebyss are stronger.
Island A has a Pokémon Center, which is also home to a school. On Island B, DeepSeaScales can be found and used to evolve Clamperl into Gorebyss, while on Island C, DeepSeaTeeth can be found and used to evolve Clamperl into Huntail. Racing their Huntail and Gorebyss between the islands, as a result, is a common occurrence for the Trainers who reside there.
