What indices of the original sequence are retained in the output of the decimate function?

I am using the decimate function y = decimate(x,r) and I need to know to which index in x the value y(i) corresponds.
This is not explicitly addressed in the documentation. In the first example the number of points is k*r+1 and according to the code it seems y(1) corresponds to index 1 in x, while and y(length(y)) correponds to index length(x) in x.
In the second example of the documentation, where length(x) is not of the form k*r+1, it seems y(length(y)) corresponds to the last index of the original vector x.
Is that always the case? Would that depend on the type of filter applied (e.g. Chebyshev vs FIR) ?
Thanks for any input on the matter.
Regards.

For convenience, here is the second example of the documentation:
r = 13;
n = 16:365;
lx = length(n);
x = sin(2*pi*n/153) + cos(2*pi*n/127);
plot(0:lx-1,x,'o')
hold on
y = decimate(x,r,5);
stem(lx-1:-r:0,fliplr(y),'ro','filled','markersize',4)
legend('Original','Decimated','Location','south')
xlabel('Sample number')
ylabel('Signal')
And the associated graph, showing correspondance between last element of x and last element of y:
