Climate - Rainforests?

On a side note, this has been on my mind for a while, but is there an example of the opposite effect of the rainshadow? To where the extremely wet area is to the east, compared to it being on the West?

It's the prevailing winds that determine the which side of mountains a rain shadow will be. if the wind is from the east, the rain shadow will be on the opposite side, to the west. If the rain is from the west, the rain shadown will be, again, on the opposite side, this time on the east.

Thank you, that's what I thought.
