*'''Mysterious Island:''' Described as an island far offshore from Holon, its main feature is large crystals, which naturally grow there and are said to grant special powers if used correctly. Normal Pokémon and δ Delta Species Pokémon cohabit the island, and there is little human activity there. It is the main focus of the {{TCG|EX Crystal Guardians}} expansion.

*'''Distant Island Chain:''' Described as being beyond the horizon, these islands are a habitat where natural Delta Species Pokémon thrive. This is reflected in the cards featured in the {{TCG|EX Dragon Frontiers}} expansion, as fully evolved δ Delta Species Pokémon remain purely one type, as opposed to being partially Metal-type. A floating island with a mountain range can be seen from here, visible on the Offense and Defense of the Furthest Ends packaging and some cards from the set.
