Each location in [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] has its own identification number used internally by the game, mostly to display where a Pokémon was caught. In contrast to the handheld games, a Pokémon's met location in these games is stored in a two-byte number. These values are enumerated below.

When a Pokémon originating from [[Orre]] is traded to a handheld game, those games will display "met in a trade" in the Pokémon's met info. If they are transferred to [[Generation IV]], the met info in those games will describe it as being from a "distant land", the same as for Pokémon from the handheld Generation III games.
There are also a couple of special cases where the games will disregard the met location value entirely and instead display unique text. In Pokémon Colosseum, if a Pokémon is {{p|Espeon}} or {{p|Umbreon}} and its Original Trainer and origin data matches the player and Orre, then their met info will say "<Player>'s old friend." In Pokémon XD, if a Pokémon is {{p|Eevee}} or one of its evolutions and its Original Trainer and origin data matches the player and Orre, then their met info will say "Obtained from <player>'s dad."

If a Pokémon from the handheld [[Generation III]] games is traded to one of the GameCube games, the GameCube game will display "met at a distant land"{{sup/ss|Colo}} or "met in a distant land"{{sup/ss|XD}}. The same applies for any location index numbers not listed below.
 
Any numbers not listed below will either display "met at a distant land" or "met in a distant land", depending on the game.
