'''Shamouti Island''' (Japanese: '''アーシア{{tt|島|とう}}''' ''Earthia Island''; ''Arshia Island'' and ''Asia Island'' are also seen) is located in the [[Orange Archipelago]]. As depicted in [[M02|the second movie]], Shamouti and its surrounding isles, [[Fire Island]], [[Ice Island]], and [[Lightning Island]], are connected to the balance of nature via the [[legendary Pokémon]] {{DL|Legendary birds (M02)|Moltres}}, {{DL|Legendary birds (M02)|Articuno}}, {{DL|Legendary birds (M02)|Zapdos}} and their mediator {{OBP|Lugia|M02}}. | |||
Every year, Shamouti Island holds the annual Legend Festival. For centuries, the locals have performed a ceremony honoring the prophesied {{Ash|Chosen One}} that would tame the [[Legendary birds|birds of legend]] should they release their might on the world. The locals dress up in traditional attire, apparently for historical purposes, but some in the younger generation attribute the preservation effort to the resulting tourism. | |||
According to {{an|Professor Oak}}, ancient writings from many different cultures name the area around this region as the source of all the waters of the world and perhaps life itself. | |||

It is relatively modern; however, it retains its native traditions, with a totem pole at the town center. During the festival, a large bazaar is set up, where people can buy souvenirs for the occasion. | ||

A large shrine is present on the southern cliffs of Shamouti, facing Fire, Ice, and Lightning Islands, and is where the "Chosen One" is supposed to place the three treasures. Stone structures are set up around the altar in which the treasures are placed, and {{wp|hibiscus}} flowers grow all around. A {{pkmn2|talking}} {{p|Slowking}} makes his residence here. | A large shrine is present on the southern cliffs of Shamouti, facing Fire, Ice, and Lightning Islands, and is where the "Chosen One" is supposed to place the three treasures.

*In the Japanese version of the second movie, a tour guide mentions that Shamouti is located in the "{{tt|オレンジ諸島の海の果てよ|outskirts of the Orange Islands}}, | *During the production of the second movie, its beta name was '''フォーポイント島''' ''Fourpoint Island''. | ||
{{ | *In the Japanese version of the second movie, a tour guide mentions that Shamouti is located in the "{{tt|オレンジ諸島の海の果てよ|outskirts of the Orange Islands}}", but in the English dub, she states it is in the center of the archipelago. A TV reporter in the English dub also mentions that the unusual weather activity is originating from "the north-central region of the Orange Islands". Onscreen, a digital map of the archipelago shows Shamouti to be isolated in a northeastern region. | ||
{{ | **However, later maps look completely different from the movie version and show Shamouti to be in the center. In addition to being located at the very center of the archipelago, it also lies within the same meridian as Mt. Silver, if one were to view the [[Orange Archipelago]] map. | ||
