Florio Island

Florio Island Illumina Spot
"This is part of the ruins we've found throughout Florio. We haven't been able to reconstruct their original shape yet, so we're not sure what purpose they once served."

Belusylva Island

Jungle	Forest	Belusylva Island Illumina Spot
"We found these ruins at the base of an enormous tree in the jungle. I wonder if the energy from these ruins had something to do with how the tree managed to grow so huge."	"These ruins were deep in the forest. Judging by how widely they were distributed, it seems likely they used to be part of a group of relatively small structures."	"We found these ruins submerged in the lake. It looks like the lake formed in a deep recess created by some kind of tremendous impact."

Maricopia Islands

Undersea
"This is part of the ruins we found on the seabed. We suspect they used to be on dry land and possibly served as a sort of altar where rituals were held to quell...something."

Voluca Island

Volcano	Voluca Island Illumina Spot
"This is part of the ruins we found inside the volcano. Those arches we saw may have served as an entrance to a deeper inner sanctum."	"This is part of the ruins we found in the crater. They were mostly buried, but they seemed similar to the arches we saw earlier in the volcano. How did the people who built them get here?"

Durice Island

Snowfields	Cave	Durice Island Illumina Spot
"These ruins were in the ice cave in the snowfields. They seem to have been built with the cave's natural structure in mind. It's a shame they've been sealed shut by all that ice."	"We found these ruins deep beneath the earth. I suspect the glowing stones in the ceiling were also part of the ruins. Perhaps their light helped nourish the surrounding plant life."	"We found this roughly 2,000-year-old mural deep inside the cave. Unfortunately, because that center-right piece of the image is missing, we can't tell what the mural depicts."

Aurus Island

Ruins	Aurus Island Illumina Spot
"That's the entrance to the Ruins of Remembrance. The ruins themselves practically span the entire island, and they're in beautiful condition. I hope to uncover all their secrets someday."	"This mural depicts a scene from the legends. It shows the six Illumina Pokémon coming together to stop the meteorite. It seems to be the same as the mural in Outaway Cave."
