Location from pokemon-kanto by
A protected Orange Archipelago island where every Pokémon is mysteriously pink — protected from trainer capture by Officer Jenny's special island ranger force.
Pinkan Island's Pokémon have been dyed pink through centuries of eating the island's native Pinkan berries. The effect is permanent and only occurs on this island — making its population irreplaceable. Poachers have repeatedly targeted the island; Officer Jenny's rangers maintain a small protective force. Ash, Misty, and Tracey stumbled onto the island during their journey and helped defend it from a Team Rocket poaching attempt.
A small wooded island ringed by pink-bermed beaches. Every Pokémon visible is pink — pink Rhydon, pink Pidgey, pink Nidoran. Warden's cabins and ranger stations dot the edge, all marked with a large 'Protected' sign at the landing dock.
