Wailmer Island (Japanese: ホエルコ島 Hoeruko Island) is an anime-exclusive island located somewhere off the coast of Hoenn, between Slateport City and Ever Grande City. It appeared in Island Time.
Surrounded by dangerous whirlpools, it does not officially appear on any maps. The island's only known inhabitant, Robin gave it its name after his friend, Wailmer who saved him after he fell overboard from a ship a long time ago. Wailmer Island features a rocky coast dotted with sea caves as well as fruit and root vegetable filled forests.
Team Rocket had lured Ash and his friends onto their aircraft in a ploy to steal Pikachu. Though after their airplane ran out of fuel, James and Meowth were forced to land on Wailmer Island.
Team Rocket, Ash, his friends and their Pokémon converted the crashed aircraft into a ship to help themselves and Robin escape from the isolation of Wailmer Island. Team Rocket attempted to steal Pikachu and the makeshift boat, in turn hoping to leave Ash and his friends stranded. However Wailmer Island's whirlpools destroyed the vessel and Wailmer who later evolved sent them blasting off.
Wailord helped Robin and the group escape Wailmer Island, and they soon located a ship. While Ash and his friends decided to continue on their journey, Robin returned to Wailmer Island to enjoy the freedoms and self-sustainable lifestyle offered by the isolated island lifestyle.
