Lost Link island
All cards featured in the Japanese Lost Link subset are from a floating island rising up from the sea, which features forested areas, a lake at its center and a few mountains around it.
A vortex is present in the sky above the island, seemingly close to engulf it as seen in the Lost World artwork. Some of the Pokémon within the island are able to manipulate energy fields similar to the vortex's appearance, all which share having effects related to the Lost Zone.
The Seeker, which carries the Lost Remover, is the only known human inhabiting the island.
Furious Fists arenas
Furious Fists has five different arena settings into many of its cards' illustration: the Training Center, Mountain Ring, unnamed street plaza and beach arenas and the Fighting Stadium.
According to the Pokémon Trading Card Game Illustration Collection artbook, the Fighting Stadium gathers fighters who have made it through battles in each of the other regions.
Parallel Worlds
- Main article: Parallel Worlds (TCG)

Gear Palace
The Gear Palace is a location featured in many of Steam Siege's illustrations. According to its blurb, the Gear Palace endured years of stability until being attacked by Shiny Mega Gardevoir along with "a host of greedy forces" (possibily represented by the Japanese Cruel Traitor set), while Volcanion and supposely the Pokémon from the Japanese Fever-Burst Fighter set are defending the siege.
Ultra Space
Ultra Prism is stated to take place in "an alternate version of Sinnoh, one of the twisted parallel regions that players can reach by traveling through an Ultra Wormhole"[1]. Some of its cards feature an Ultra Wormhole at the top of a mountain, being unclear if said spot is Mt. Coronet; the card released in this set featuring this location is noticeably missing it, though.
The English Booster pack artwork for Lost Thunder featuring Blacephalon decipts what appear to be its domain in the background.

The Peaceful Park is a setting featured in the illustration of many cards through the Sword & Shield Series. TODO: change Narratibve Illustration reference to a cardlist template below
