 ==In the main series==
-Five regions have appeared in the [[version|main series]] of Pokémon games. They are, in order of appearance, [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Sinnoh]], and [[Unova]]. Each region has been the setting of at least three games in the generation in which it debuts.
+Six regions have appeared in the [[version|main series]] of Pokémon games. They are, in order of appearance, [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Orre]], [[Sinnoh]], and [[Unova]]. Each region has been the setting of at least three games (only two games in the case of [[Orre]]) in the generation in which it debuts.
-The regions are structured similarly. Typically, a region will have its own [[Pokémon League]], comprised of eight [[Gym Leader]]s. Once these eight are defeated, Trainers can challenge the regional [[Elite Four]], which may or may not be shared with another, nearby region (so far, Johto is the only region not to have its own Elite Four; it shares one with Kanto). Each one also typically has a [[Pokémon professor]], who teach youngsters about Pokémon and give out [[starter Pokémon]] to them. There is usually a [[villainous teams|villainous team]] operating within the region, who uses Pokémon to further their goals.

Once these eight are defeated, Trainers can challenge the regional [[Elite Four]], which may or may not be shared with another, nearby region (so far, Johto and Orre do not have their own Elite Four; Johto shares one with Kanto and Orre seemingly lacks a Pokémon League altogether).

There is usually a [[villainous teams|villainous team]] operating within the region, who uses Pokémon to further their goals.
 Though there are many similarities between them, there are some major differences between the regions, such as what Pokémon are located there and what legends there are waiting to be uncovered. Visitors from another region quickly realize that the region they are visiting is far from their home, both in the way of the climate, and in the culture of the people there.
