Pokémon Ranger is a role-playing game which is designed in a format radically different than that of traditional Pokémon RPGs.The player controls a Pokémon Ranger in the Fiore region. You catch the pokemon by using a device called a styler,which is your stylus.You need to loop the pokemon a certain amount of times to capture them.The storyline revolves around a single Pokémon Ranger — Lunick or Solana depending on the player's choice. In addition to the male, female and professor protagonist characters in the game, several other Pokémon Rangers are part of the Ranger Union. Each ranger leader holds domain over that town's rangers. These rangers are named Cameron, Elita , Joel and Spenser A professor named Professor Hastings also plays a significant role in the game, as the Chief of Technology for the Ranger Union.The new villainous group,the Go-Rock Squad has four sub-leaders called the Go-Rock Quads,the leader's three sons and daughter. Similar to Jessie and James of Team Rocket,the Quads have a motto they repeat every time they are encountered.Their original plot is to use the Power Styler, a more powerful version of the original Styler that resembles an organ, to take control of Entei,Suicune,and Raikou to attack citizens of Fiore.They would then command them to stop, leading people to believe the Go-Rock Squad were heroes.They would then command Pokémon to start other problems and charge money to solve the problem. After this plot failed and the Go-Rock Squad disbanded,some members have attempted to resurrect the Go-Rock Squad by capturing Rayquaza,as in Extra Mission 3.
Pokémon Ranger is set in the Fiore region. The region's name originates from the Italian word for flower.The region itself doesn't appear in the Pokémon anime series,although the female protagonist of Pokémon Ranger,Solana, has made an appearance.The Go-Rock Squad is the resident crime syndicate of this region. Fiore itself doesn't have any native Pokémon,but has many Pokémon from other regions.It also does not have any Pokémon Trainers.All people who live with Pokémon keep them outside of Poké Balls,like pets,as Pokémon are never trained here.Fiore is located quite some distance from the other regions of the Pokémon world up to the third generation.It is a relatively small island region that is quite mountainous. There are four major settlements in Fiore,each named after the season it constantly experiences — Ringtown (spring) to the west,Fall City (fall) to the east, Wintown (winter) at foot of mountains to the north and Summerland (summer) on an island to the south.The Krokka Tunnel connects Fall City and Ringtown.From there,one can also get to the Panula Cave,which is also accessible from Summerland's harbor via water vehicle (aka the AquaMole),which is the coldest spot of Fiore,hence ice pokemon appearing there,including the legendary Regice.It leads to Wintown,located on the foot of the Sekra Range.The Sekra Range is a 6500 foot high mountain range that is notable for having a waterfall that can "fill the Capture Arena 23 times in one minute"; housing the Go-Rock Squad's base;a house high up where the residents inside will recharge the player's Styler;"Shiftree",a tree where five Shiftry live in and will attack the player all at the same time;and the Fiore Temple,an ancient temple mountain currently home to a lot of wild Pokémon,but with a strange door that will only open when you capture the 3 wanted pokemon;where the game's climax takes place,located at the very summit of the Sekra Range.On the same island where Summerland is located on is a big jungle called the Olive Jungle. Numerous Bug- and Grass-type Pokémon live here,and in the center is a ruin,with the same symbols on Kyogre,called the Jungle Relic.In the past,Rangers came to the Relic to test themselves.There are four Challenges involving Dragon Pokémon,each representing one of the four classical elements:the Challenge of Destruction (Earth),the Challenge of Wind (Air),the Challenge of Fire,and the Challenge of Water.These pokemon are Kingdra,Salamence,Flygon and Charizard,as on the cover of Pokemon Ranger.It is said that should all four be cleared,a catastrophe will befall Fiore.
A few episodes of the Pokémon animated series have included Pokémon Rangers. They seem to go on special missions to help preserve Pokémon and human relations, and they are closely related to Pokémon breeders. They also have a device that allows them to temporarily control wild Pokémon; this device also allows them to scan Pokémon, check how healthy they are, and make sure that they are not being interfered with by outside forces. Solana herself has appeared in three episodes of the Pokémon anime.
Several Pokémon Rangers can also be battled in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, FireRed, LeafGreen, Emerald, Diamond, and Pearl and are depicted as protecting the environment and wild Pokémon. These Rangers own pokémon which they keep in pokéballs, and act very much like Pokémon Trainers.
