Did they ever release a Pokemon game dealing with the Orange Island League?

I was thinking and I remembered that each Pokemon anime series followed the
same route as the games as far as getting the badges, but I wanted to know if
they ever released a Pokemon game that dealt with Ash's adventures in the
Orange Islands.

If they did what is the name of the game? If they didn't, why not?

Was there ever a Pokemon game based off the Orange Islands?


There is no game located in the Orange Islands. Perhaps the closest game would
be Fire Red/Leaf Green where the player could explore Sevii Islands. There are
arguments that this was inspired by the Orange Islands, but I haven't found
any proof.

There have been player modded games fitting in with the Orange Islands -
[Example](http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=225147), but no
official release. [Reference](http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Orange_Islands)

[According to this answer on another
site](http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100525190130AANMhtE), the
Orange Island plot was half-hearted and this probably meant that there was no
real push for a related game on that end.

I think it's more plausible that there was no game made because there was no
real idea how many pokemon there was at the time(150 kanto, 250 jhoto). also
there was only four gym leaders each with diffrent obstacles to go through the
challenges would be to hard to mimic on the gameboy though it would be easy
and fun on the ds. The other factor that puzzles me is the orange league
champion Drake uses a dragonite, drake is the same name they used in the kanto
games and the jhoto games he is the charater you face after the elite four and
he records you and your pokemon just as they did for ash after he defeated the
orange league champion. In red blue yellow is known as chapion in jhoto he is
also known as the dragon master. HE wears a pokeball around his neck just
video game drake meaning that they must be the same person. So in a way they
even though they don't have orange island gym leaders they still have the
chapion drake which makes the game partly related to orange island. Though
everything is just speculations And no one will no for sure but what we know
is that the longer they continue to air Pokemon the more fans will become
confused.

By the end of the first season, Pokemon: Gold and Silver (Johto games) was
still unreleased so the anime had to create a filler arc involving the GS ball
and the Orange League to stall time. The Pokemon anime is based on the games
and therefore could not go straight ahead and do the Johto saga if the game
it's based on isn't released yet.

The Orange Islands is probably loosely based on the Sevii Islands from FireRed
and LeafGreen but still debatable.

There are no official games made by Nintendo about the Orange Islands. Some
romhacks have been made/are under construction about them though.:
