The '''Sevii Islands''' (Japanese: '''ナナシマ''' ''Nanashima'') are an archipelago of nine large islands and several small islands surrounding them far south of mainland [[Kanto]], and are home to several {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]]: {{p|Moltres}}, {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, and {{p|Deoxys}}. They resemble the real-life {{wp|Izu Islands}} and {{wp|Bonin Islands}}. The main islands' only game appearance was in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, but the two event islands, [[Navel Rock]] and [[Birth Island]], later appeared in {{game|Emerald}}. The Sevii Islands also appeared in various other media based on these games.
