Its name is {{wp|Italian language|Italian}} for "flower". It may be somewhat far from the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]], since in the in-game Manaphy event, [[Professor Hastings]] suggests sending the {{p|Manaphy}} Egg to Sinnoh as a response to the term "somewhere far away." | ||
The relationship between humans and Pokémon is substantially different in Fiore than it is in the regions of the main games. In Fiore, there are no Trainers that capture and battle. The people that have the most interaction with Pokémon are the Pokémon Rangers. Since the Rangers enforce a strict rule of releasing Pokémon after using their help, Fiore does not host a form of Pokémon competition in the vein of the other regions' [[Pokémon League]]. However, they do have capture challenges that are open for Rangers to hone their skills. [[Poké Ball]]s are not sold or used in the Fiore region. People who befriend Pokémon are encouraged to keep them by their side, outside of Poké Balls at all times. | |||
==Design concept== | |||
Fiore is likely based on the {{wp|Prefectures of Japan|Japanese prefecture}}s {{wp|Okayama Prefecture|Okayama}} and {{wp|Hyōgo Prefecture|Hyōgo}}, as well as {{wp|Shodo Island}} of the {{wp|Kagawa Prefecture|Kagawa}} prefecture. | |||
