As explained in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|Pokémon SoulSilver}}, the Whirl Islands used to be one large island. At some point in time, there were two countries fighting over the island. Lugia, the guardian of the island, got upset and cast lightning bolts to tear the island into four pieces. It then disappeared into the deep end of the waterfall basin, longing for the invisible trust between people and Pokémon to manifest once more. | As explained in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|Pokémon SoulSilver}}, the Whirl Islands used to be one large island.

The depiction of the islands is far different in the anime. Far from being deserted, it contains many towns and other inhabitable areas. The Whirl Islands are home to the [[Whirl Cup]], a competition for {{t|Water}} [[Pokémon Trainer]]s held once every three years. | The depiction of the islands is far different in the anime.
