      Explore the Hisui region—the Sinnoh of old 

      Your adventure takes place in the expansive natural majesty of the Hisui region, where you embark on survey missions from your main base in Jubilife Village.  Mount Coronet rises from the center, surrounded on all sides by areas with distinct environments.  

      Build the region’s first Pokédex

      You are tasked with studying Pokémon to complete the region’s first Pokédex. To do this, you’ll need to catch wild Pokémon by sneaking up and throwing a well-aimed Poké Ball™. You can also toss the Poké Ball containing your ally Pokémon near a wild Pokémon to seamlessly enter battle.  

      Pick your first partner Pokémon

      Cyndaquil  

      A Fire Mouse Pokémon from the Johto region.

      Oshawott  

      The Sea Otter Pokémon from the Unova region. 

      Newly discovered Pokémon

      In this era—long before the events of the Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl games—you can discover newly added types of Pokémon. 

      New regional forms 

      Find newly discovered Pokémon like Wyrdeer, an evolution of Stantler, and new regional forms like Hisuian Growlithe, Hisuian Zorua, and Hisuian Zoroark. 

      Noble Pokémon 

      Encounter noble Pokémon, special Pokémon in the Hisui region that have received a mysterious blessing. These nobles are particularly powerful and are revered by the people of the region. 

      Ride across untamed landscapes 

      During your adventure, you’ll receive a Celestica Flute. You can play the flute to summon special Pokémon that will let you ride them. Riding these Pokémon on land, across water, or even through the skies will help you more freely explore the Hisui region.

      Uncover the mystery surrounding the Mythical Pokémon known as Arceus
