Let's see...

Kinnow Island is the site of "The Joy of Pokemon," where Ash and Tracey help out a Nurse Joy who rows from island to island to take care of injured Pokemon.

Mandarin Island North is the site of the city in "Pikachu Re-Volts," where Butch and Cassidy used a radio transmitter to broadcast their Drowzee's hypnotic waves over the island (in order to take control of all the Pokemon on it except Ghost-types).

Ash broke Snorlax's Poke Ball on Butwal Island and spent the majority of the episode ("Pokemon Food Fight") trying to force Snorlax over a mountain and to the island's Pokemon Center in order to get the ball fixed. (From what I remember, it was only sparsely populated. There were people, but it was mostly wilderness. Haven't seen this episode in awhile, though.)

Ascorbia Island, site of "Pokemon Water War," was the location where Ash met a team of firefighting Wartortle that Squirtle attempted to compete against. (It also has its own city.)

Cleopatra Island (where "Charizard Chills" takes place) seems to be largely uninhabited and is where Ash spent the night trying to take care of Charizard after a nasty fight with a Poliwrath.

Fairchild and Tarroco, according to my sources, haven't actually appeared in the anime.

I've got no information on the others. Sorry.

Ah, thanks a lot!
Tarroco Island, Millsweet Island and Fairchild Island are the ones I still don't know about. But no problem :P
I think I have enough info on the Orange Islands right now.
Anyway, so is there really only 4 gym leaders and then Drake? or is there any gyms else that never appeared in the Anime?

edit: I remember now, there was an Island where there was a cave full of Kabutos believed to be extinct. Could this be Tarroco Island?

Yep. Tracey says early in the season that a trainer can't battle the final Gym (Drake's) until he beats everyone in the Orange League. Because Ash only beat four Gyms, that means that those four Gyms are the only ones in the league. (I'm not sure if this was a mistranslation, but at least, that's what the dub says.)

edit: I remember now, there was an Island where there was a cave full of Kabutos believed to be extinct. Could this be Tarroco Island?

I highly doubt it. Look at this map. The episode you're talking about takes place right after Ash battles the Gym on Mikan Island and a few before he battles the one on Navel Island. He'd be traveling due east to reach Navel Island, whereas if he went to Tarroco Island, he'd first have to travel about half the distance to the northeast (or north-northeast) first, which would be incredibly odd, assuming the number of episodes between the two Gyms imply anything about the length of time that passed on Ash's journey from Mikan to Navel. Additionally, because Kumquat (a short distance to the southeast of Tarroco) has its own Gym, it wouldn't make much sense for Ash to pass that island up and then come back to it later on in the series.

All the info I got on the Orange Islands I've got some from Wikipedia and other sites.
If you look at wikipedia swampert22, you'll see at the end theres a list of islands where there is no info about them ;)
and I'm trying to get information on those.
But I think I've gathered enough information already :D
Thanks ya'll
