Name Origin
Most of this is obvious but I figure we should add it anyway-
Poké Pelago comes from archipelago
Isle Abeens, when said aloud, is identical to "Isle o' Beans" which is what it is, Isle Aphun is the same case as Abeens but it is "Isle o' Fun", and Isle Evelup is also the same but "I'll Level Up" or "Isle Level Up"

Isle Aplenny is "Isle o' Plenty" and Isle Avue is "I Love You", as well. - unsigned comment from disallowances (talk • contribs)

Assuming equal priority
Wowy: Re this. How is "assuming equal priority" confusing? It is not more efficient if one already has all the Pokemon they use in battle maxed out on affection and Pokebeans are used primarily for developing islands. Your wording is misleading and requires nuance. If you don't like the way I nuanced it, how would you prefer it be worded? Satorukun0530 (talk) 00:38, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
- I kind of think that addition was confusing also, but it was also confusing beforehand. It's been edited now. Tiddlywinks (talk) 00:57, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
- Yeah, the current wording solves my initial concern, but now it might have gone too far in the other direction. As far as I know, the Poke Pelago is the main way to get beans, so if Refresh is a priority then it isn't more efficient to trade in rainbow beans, since for Refresh the more rainbow beans the better. It may be that the indentation means that the whole point is meant to be read in light of Having Poké Beans inside the box on an island..., but that isn't really clear. Satorukun0530 (talk) 01:34, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
- The point makes no reference to Refresh. The point only talks about Poke Pelago. It doesn't need to talk about Refresh. People can decide on their own if they want to use Beans there instead. There is no objective comparison to make between them otherwise. Tiddlywinks (talk) 01:55, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
- I was just about to say the same thing (but got an edit conflict instead :)) --Wowy(토크) 02:01, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
- Meh. I guess if it doesn't explicitly claim that it's more efficient to use them for one or the other of developing islands or Refresh (which is how I read it at first) the there's no serious problem. I might have been biased in favour of mentioning that we are assuming Refresh is not a higher priority because the article as I first read it did make this assumption without explicitly stating so.

Experience in Isle Evelup
I just put pokemon through one play session on Isle Evelup at its second stage; the gain was 150 experience. I was going to edit the table to reflect that, but I'm not familiar with the format of the edit page and I'm not sure which line is which box in the table. Can someone either let me know, or make the edit themselves? Deepforest01 (talk) 19:31, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

Isle Aplenny quotes
Somewhere on the article, can we list all the possible messages that can appear when a Pokémon on Isle Aplenny is selected? sumwun (talk) 06:32, 25 June 2017 (UTC)
Shiny Encounters
Someone on Reddit confirmed that it is possible for Pokémon who can be caught on the Pelago to be Shiny. UxieLover1994 (talk) 10:40, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
Maximum number of Poke Beans
There is a fairly low limit to how many beans you can hold. You can hold 255 Rainbow Beans, 1785 Patterned Beans, and 1785 Plain Beans. 255 is obviously "2^8" (including zero). But the reason for it being the limit is more likely because it is the largest 2 decimal hex number: "FF." 1784 is just 7x more than that. 1784 = 255*7 => FF*7 = 6F9. I imagine that the F between the 69 is just a happy coincidence. MicManGuy (talk) 13:13, 26 October 2017 (UTC)
Isle Aphun items
The article currently describes their rarities using words such as "common" and "rare". Do those words correspond to real numeric probabilities? sumwun (talk) 18:57, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
Fossils on Isle Aphun
I think I found a hint as to the rarity of fossils. I traded Archen from my Moon to my friend's game, and I wanted to get another one from Ultra Sun. Now, of course the Plume Fossil is the last one I need, but I noticed something else interesting: I only got one of each other fossil on Aphun, barring some exceptions I'll note below. This leads me to think fossils follow the same rules as beans, where if you have 6 red beans and 5 of every other color, the next bean you get will be red. Does anyone think there could be something to this theory?
Several other points:
- I got a Dome Fossil last. Also, I restored some fossils recently, including that Dome Fossil, so I had 7/10. Right after that, I got another Root Fossil, and I suspect Dome will be next. I will let you know if I'm right. Finally, those last 2 fossils (Plume, Dome) are usually only available in (Ultra) Moon. Is it possible you get the 5 fossils from your game on Aphun first, then the 5 from the other game?
- I got 3 fossils at one time at one point, and if I remember correctly they were all fossils I got before, no new fossils. I'm not sure how this relates to the bean collection pattern.
