'''Lake Acuity''' (Japanese: '''エイチこ''' ''Eichi Lake'') is home to the [[legendary Pokémon]], {{p|Uxie}}.
During the events of {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, [[Jupiter]] of [[Team Galactic]] captures the Legendary Pokémon living in the lake, easily defeating {{ga|Barry}} who had tried to defend it. After [[Cyrus]] has been defeated at the [[Spear Pillar]]{{sup/4|DP}}/[[Distortion World]]{{sup/4|Pt}}, Uxie returns to the Acuity Cavern in the middle of the lake and can be {{pkmn2|caught}} there.
