'''Lake Acuity''' (Japanese: '''エイチ{{tt|湖|こ}}''' ''Eichi Lake'') is a location in the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]], and part of the [[Alabaster Icelands]] in the [[Hisui]] region. At the center of the lake, there is a cave that is named '''Acuity Cavern''', which is home to the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Uxie}}, the guardian of the lake and the Being of Knowledge.


'''Lake Acuity''' (Japanese: '''エイチこ''' ''Eichi Lake'') is home to the [[legendary Pokémon]], {{p|Uxie}}.
According to [[Volo]], the lake contains seawater, though nobody knows whether this is due to something in its geography or because of a Pokémon.
 
During the events of {{pkmn|Diamond and Pearl Versions|Pokémon Diamond, Pearl}}, {{pkmn|Platinum Version|Platinum}}, {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl}}, [[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 [[Spear Pillar]]{{sup/4|DP}}{{sup/8|BDSP}}/ in the [[Distortion World]]{{sup/4|Pt}}, Uxie returns to the Acuity Cavern in the middle of the [[lake]].
 
In {{game|Platinum}}, accessing Lake Acuity and its [[Acuity Lakefront|lakefront]] requires using {{m|Rock Climb}}, which cannot be used outside of battle before earning the {{badge|Icicle}} from [[Candice]] at the [[Snowpoint Gym]].
 
In [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], the player, [[Volo]], and [[Adaman]] or [[Irida]] come here during [[Task#Missions|Mission]] 16: "The Trial of Lake Acuity" to obtain [[Uxie's Claw]] to forge the [[Red Chain]].

[[Image:Acuity_lakeview.jpg|thumb|right|Lake Acuity in the anime]]
===Main series===
The lake was mentioned by {{an|May}} and [[Zoey]] in ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]''.
[[File:Lake Acuity anime.png|thumb|250px|Lake Acuity in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
[[File:Lake Acuity winter anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Lake Acuity during the winter]]
Lake Acuity was first featured in ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'' when it was mentioned by {{an|May}} and [[Zoey]] as the location where one of the {{an|lake guardians}} is known to live.
 
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} were going to the Lake Acuity in ''[[DP130|Frozen on Their Tracks!]]'', but due to [[Team Galactic]]'s actions, the train was stopped at a fixed signal until the end of the episode.
 
The lake was the main setting of a [[Full Battle]] between Ash and [[Paul]], which took place from ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'' to ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]''. The battle was refereed by [[Olivier]], who was called by [[Reggie]] to preside over the match. Despite his efforts and the [[evolution]] of his {{p|Chimchar}} into {{AP|Monferno}}, Ash ended up losing to his [[rival]].
 
After the battle, Ash and his friends stayed at Lake Acuity's [[Pokémon Center]] so that [[Nurse Joy]] could take care of {{cat|Ash's Pokémon}}. In ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]'', a silhouette of {{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Uxie}} appeared at the lake and showed itself to {{an|Brock}}, who was trying to find {{Berries}} to help Ash's Monferno.


{{Ash}} and {{ashfr|co.}} were going to the Lake Acuity in ''[[DP130|Frozen on Their Tracks!]]'', but due to Team Galactic's actions, the train was stopped at a fixed signal until the end of the episode.
In ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', it was explained that Lake Acuity, and indeed all three of Sinnoh's lakes, are the entrances to another world where the lake guardians reside, although they do not live in the lakes themselves.


The lake was the main setting in ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'' and ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]'', where a [[full battle]] between {{Ash}} and [[Paul]] took place.
During the Team Galactic finale, [[Professor Carolina]] was stationed here, helping [[Professor Rowan]] with trying to keep Uxie safe.


In ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]'' a silhouette of {{p|Uxie}} appeared at the lake.

Lake Acuity appeared in a flashback in ''[[PE05|The Rival]]''. {{ga|Barry}} and his {{p|Prinplup}} fought against [[Jupiter]] and her {{p|Skuntank}} at the lake, but wound up getting defeated, allowing [[Team Galactic]] to get away with {{p|Uxie}}.

== Trivia ==
==In the manga==
* At each of Sinnoh's lakes, a TM can be found containing a powerful move of a different elemental type. Lake Acuity's TM is {{type2|Ice}}.
===Pokémon Adventures===
* Lake Acuity is the only lake in Sinnoh where a member of the {{p|Starly}} evolutionary line is not available. {{p|Noctowl}} however, is available.

* Lake Acuity is the only lake in Sinnoh where [[Team Galactic]] isn't fought. Instead, {{ga|Barry}} fought [[Jupiter]].
===={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}====
In ''[[PS377|Hurrah for Rapidash]]'', {{adv|Platinum}} parted ways with {{adv|Diamond}} and {{adv|Pearl}} and headed to Lake Acuity in order to protect {{DL|Lake guardians (Adventures)|Uxie}} from [[Team Galactic]]. Accompanied by [[Maylene]] and [[Candice]], she arrived there in ''[[PS395|Stopping Sableye]]''. Upon arriving, Platinum recalled how [[Mr. Berlitz|her father]] had told her that she had been to Lake Acuity before, despite her not remembering anything about it.


==Name origin==
The three were almost immediately confronted by {{tc|Commander}} [[Jupiter]], who was easily able to defeat them, despite two of them being [[Gym Leader]]s. After the Galactic Bomb was detonated at [[Lake Valor]] in ''[[PS398|Tackling Tangrowth]]'', Uxie emerged from the Acuity Cavern and was quickly captured by Team Galactic.

Lake Acuity appeared in ''[[DPA13|The Battle Rages On]]'' and ''[[DPA14|A Novel Test!!]]'', where [[Mitsumi]] battled and defeated [[Jupiter]] there. However, by bringing up Mitsumi's past as a [[Team Galactic]] member, Jupiter was able to throw off Mitsumi and shock {{OBP|Jun|DPA}}, allowing her to take the latter hostage. She then contacted [[Cyrus]], who ordered her to bring Mitsumi to the [[Team Galactic HQ]]. Mitsumi refused at first, but Cyrus was able to change her mind, and she reluctantly left with Jupiter, leaving Jun behind in the snow, where he was later found by [[Hareta]].

==In the TCG==
[[File:LakeAcuityLostOrigin160.jpg|200px|thumb|Lake Acuity in the TCG]]
{{main|Lake Acuity (Lost Origin 160)}}
'''Lake Acuity''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Stadium card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Sword & Shield Series (the Japanese Sword & Shield Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|Dark Phantasma}} subset and the English {{TCG|Lost Origin}} expansion, with artwork by [[Oswaldo KATO]]. It makes all Pokémon that have any Water or Fighting Energy attached take 20 less damage from attacks from the opponent's Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* At each of Sinnoh's lakes, a TM can be found containing a powerful move of a different type. Lake Acuity's TM is the {{type|Ice}} {{TM|14|Blizzard}}.
* Lake Acuity is the only lake in Sinnoh where [[Team Galactic]] isn't fought. Instead, {{ga|Barry}} fights [[Jupiter]], losing and vowing to become stronger.
** Accordingly, Lake Acuity is used as {{mas|Barry}}'s [[a:File:Barry Mindscape.png|mindscape]] in [[Pokémon Masters EX]].
* When Lake Acuity was first mentioned in the anime, it was shown to be covered in snow. However, in all subsequent appearances, there was no snow present.
 
===Name origin===
Acuity means "sharpness of wit". This is fitting, as {{p|Uxie}} is the Knowledge Pokémon.
Acuity means "sharpness of wit". This is fitting, as {{p|Uxie}} is the Knowledge Pokémon.
Eichi is from 叡智 ''eichi'' (wisdom, intellect), as indicated by a signpost in {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}} that provided an annotation of its name fully written in kanji as 叡智湖.
