Hisui: Difference between revisions

The latest arrivals in Hisui were the [[Galaxy Team|Galaxy Expedition Team]], comprised of people from numerous other regions including [[Hoenn]], [[Alola]], and [[Galar]]. These settlers built [[Jubilife Village]] in Hisui's southwestern corner. The Galaxy Expedition Team had been assembled to evaluate Hisui's viability for settlers, and to that end it embarked on an ecological study of the island. A significant part of this study involved the creation of the first complete Hisuian [[Pokédex]] at the direction of [[Professor Laventon]]. Unlike the two clans that lived in Hisui prior, the people of Jubilife Village were distrusting of Pokémon. To capture and store Pokémon, the expedition team brought with them [[Poké Ball]]s, a newly-invented technology. Hisui plays a large part in the [[history of Poké Balls]].

The Diamond and Pearl Clans are immediate to go to the Galaxy Team after their Noble Pokémon have caused destruction to both themselves and the land of Hisui. The player character is then appointed to investigate the problems with these four Pokémon and quell their rage, on top of completing Hisui's first Pokédex. As they progress, the player teaches the people of Jubilife Village about Pokémon and companionship, as well allowing the Diamond and Pearl Clans to get along with not only each other, but with ideas from the Galaxy Team as well. The player quells all five Noble Pokémon, but soon, the sky turns red and the space-time distortions worsen, causing [[Kamado]] the Galaxy Team's leader, to distrust the player in assumption they were a part of the cause. The player is kicked out from the team and is no longer allowed within Jubilife Village, seeking help from either clan, who are unable to provide assistance. [[Volo]], a character who the player has met before, assists the player in their time of need and brings them to [[Cogita]], telling them to seek the [[Lake guardian]]s and form a [[Red Chain]]. [[Adaman]] and [[Irida]], the {{tc|Clan Leader}}s, assist the player in their journey to avoid any ill intentions with the Galaxy Team or their clans. They return to the [[Temple of Sinnoh]] that rests upon the top of Mount Coronet. After gaining the trust of the Gaalxy team again, the player summons either {{p|Dialga}} or {{p|Palkia}} and gains their respect. The [[Legendary Pokémon]] warns their respective Clan leader about their counterpart, who immediately follows in their Origin Forme. The raging counterpart destroys any remains of the Red Chain and the Temple of Sinnoh. The Clan Leaders, Professor Laventon, and the player then set out to create a special Poké Ball, made of left over pieces of the Red Chain and [[Origin Ore]] and use it to quell the raging counterpart at the Temple of Sinnoh.

[[File:Hisui.png|thumb|250px|In-game map of the Hisui region<br>Hisui is made up of five different sub-regions, each with it's own subclimate]]

Hisui's harsh environment and climate is much different from most regions of the modern day, leading to many Pokémon being uniquely found within the region as well. Many of which are also not found in the modern-day Sinnoh as well,implying that many of the Pokémon found in Hisui to have gone either extinct or migrate out of the region by the time the events of {{g|Diamond and Pearl}} happen. For example, {{p|Wyrdeer}} are a species of Pokémon evolving from {{p|Stantler}}, a species that still exists in the modern day, however, Stantler is not found in any of Sinnoh's Pokédexes, and its entry in the [[Paldea]] Pokédex for [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Violet]] specifically state that it used to evolve, implying that Wydeer had gone fully extinct. While the {{p|Qwilfish}} in Hisui are known to have migrated to other colder climates instead, according to the Pokédex at [[Blueberry Academy]]. Hisui's conditions have brought forth many [[evolution]]s and [[regional form]]s that are not found else where in the world. Many of these changes are related to Hisui's seasonal and colder climates, having the Pokémon adapt to new forms. Laventon's study of {{p|Decidueye}} confirms that evolution can be an influence on evolution, with the Pokémon in particular having to adapt to the cold. The regional forms first discovered in the Hisui region are described as [[Hisuian form]]s.

Hisui's vegetation is also an important part of the ecosystem and to the people and Pokémon who live there, with many plants growing only in Hisui and in no other locations. Similar to regional forms, Hisui also grows a unique type of [[Apricorn]] that other regions such as [[Johto]] may not, including [[Apricorn (item)|Brown Apricorn]]s. The many plants that can be used for food that grow in Hisui include [[Sand Radish]]es, [[Sootfoot Root]]s and many types of [[Berries]]. Many of the vegetation in the region is determined by sub-region, for example, [[Pop Pod]]s and a sea vegetable that grow only in the Cobalt Coastlands, while [[Sand Radish]]es will only grow in the Alabaster Icelands.

Among usage in food and delicacy, the natural elements found in the region are also used for [[crafting]], an important part of survival in the region. The usage of items are often used to to make other foods, but also items such as [[Poké Ball]]s, and [[Potion]]s. Balms for [[Noble Pokémon]] are often made with ingredients found around the location that the normal variants of that species would prefer, such as Lord {{p|Electrode}} preferring food made from [[Crunchy Salt]]. This salt often grows in Hisui's mountain tops where Hisuian Electrode tend to live. Many materials are also harvested from the Pokémon themselves, especially plant-like or [[Poison (type)|Poison]]-Type Pokémon such as {{p|Petilil}} whose leaves are used for medical care and {{p|Croagunk}} whose toxins could be used for similar purposes. [[Medicinal Leek]]s are a common vegetable found through out the entire region, and are also used for basic medical purposes and healing. These herbs are often mixed into Potions, but can also be applied directly.
