The Decolora Islands lay between the Kanto Region and the Unova Region.
"Decolora" was not the name of any single island, but the collective name for this cluster of neighboring islands.

Forests covered much of the island, with a town along the coast and steep isthmuses surrounding it.
Melo Town could only be reached by crossing the bridge connecting the port to the isthmus.
Apparently, legends of a gigantic Zoroark were widespread here.

Four long roads surrounded the towering circular structure, connecting it to several smaller buildings nearby.
One of them was the Pokémon Center!
All manner of stalls and small shops lined both sides of the roads.
Although the competition was still a day away, Meloetta Main Island...
