'''Forina''' (Japanese: '''ファウンス''' ''Fauns'') is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive location and one of the settings for ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. It is characterized by scrubs and {{wp|hoodoos|pillar-like rock formations}}. The area's mountainous terrain makes it difficult to access even on foot.


==In the TCG==
The caverns beneath the valley are where the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{OBP|Jirachi|M06}} hibernates for a millennium between the periods where it is awakened by the [[Millennium Comet]] for seven days. The power that Jirachi absorbs from the comet is said to maintain Forina's natural beauty.
In the Movie Promo set of [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], there are cards of Pokémon from Forina. The cards on the following list all belong to Forina.
 
[[Butler]] and [[Diane]] first visited the area and obtained Jirachi in the hope of restoring the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Groudon}} from a [[fossil]]. Butler somewhat succeeded, with Jirachi's power managing to unleash [[Meta Groudon]]. However, it began absorbing energy from Forina's landscape with its tentacles, consuming people and Pokémon alike. After a long {{pkmn|battle}}, Jirachi used {{m|Doom Desire}} to destroy the Meta Groudon. As a result, {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}}, {{TRT}}, Diane, Butler, and Forina's Pokémon were revitalized.
 
While Jirachi returned to its crystalline slumber, Diane and Butler decided to stay in Forina. In the ending credits of ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', [[Kidd Summers]] visited Forina and met up with Butler and Diane.
 
According to promotional posters, it is located just southwest of [[Hoenn]]'s [[Mt. Chimney]] and northwest of [[Lavaridge Town]].
