The '''Seven Grapefruit Islands''' (Japanese: '''ザボン七島''' ''Seven Zabon Islands'') are a chain of seven tiny isles in the eastern region of the [[Orange Archipelago]]. The islands grow grapefruits, and is the only place where they grow them in the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]]. The people on these islands also make the grapefruit peels into candies.


Although the islands are famous for their grapefruits, they were not grown naturally. The people on the island grow the grapefruit. Each island is covered in grapefruit trees. The grapefruits on the islands, although are very delicious, are very difficult to eat because of the tough peels. The grapefruits grown on the islands are larger than a regular grapefruit.
Although the islands are famous for their large grapefruits, it is actually people who grow them. Each island is covered in grapefruit trees. During the winter, each tree is covered in straw for insulation, sprayed with insect repellent and weeded. {{p|Butterfree}} are imported from surrounding islands to help pollinate the grapefruit trees' white flowers, and the fruit develops during the warmer months for picking and processing.
   
   
When a hungry {{AP|Snorlax}} traversed the islands in search for food, {{an|Ruby}} put the area on lockdown because she feared for the survival of the grapefruit.
In ''[[EP094|Snack Attack]]'', a hungry {{p|Snorlax}} had devastated the first island and it was later discovered that it could swim to reach the other islands. {{an|Ruby}} immediately put the area on lockdown because she feared for the survival of the grapefruit. {{Ash}} eventually In {{pkmn2|caught}} {{AP|Snorlax}}, which save the Grapefruit Islands' groves from its gluttonous appetite.

===Grapefruit Headquarters===
The headquarters of the Grapefruit Islands. In here, there is an electronic map of the seven islands, and when grapefruit is being stolen, the island on the map starts to glow and blink. It is where {{an|Ruby}} watches the Grapefruit Islands for poachers stealing her grapefruit. Outside, the building looks like a warehouse. It is also a place where grapefruit can be stored. The building is located on Grapefruit Island No. 3. Ash and his friends built a stage for {{an|Jigglypuff}} here.

This building is mentioned in the {{pkmn|anime}}, but not shown. It is not known what it does, or what island it is on.
