As depicted in [[M02|the second movie]], Shamouti and its surrounding isles, [[Fire Island]], [[Ice Island]], and [[Lightning Island]], are connected to the balance of nature via the [[legendary Pokémon]] {{DL|Legendary birds (movie 2)|Moltres}}, {{DL|Legendary birds (movie 2)|Articuno}}, {{DL|Legendary birds (movie 2)|Zapdos}} and their mediator {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}. | ||
Shamouti Island appears to be a cultural center for the Orange Archipelago because of its many island holidays. One such holiday is the annual Legend Festival. For centuries, the locals have performed a ceremony honoring the prophesied [[Ash Ketchum|Chosen One]] that would tame the [[Legendary birds|birds of legend]] should they release their might on the world. The locals dress up in traditional attire, apparently for historical purposes, but some in the younger generation attribute the preservation effort to the resulting tourism. | Shamouti Island appears to be a cultural center for the Orange Archipelago because of its many island holidays.

The town is the centerpiece of Shamouti Island's annual festivities honoring the Chosen One who is supposed to bring harmony to the fighting legendary birds and help the beast of the sea quell their fighting. It is relatively modern, however, it retains its native traditions, with a totem pole at the town center. During the festival, a large bazaar is set up, where people can buy souvenirs for the occasion. | The town is the centerpiece of Shamouti Island's annual festivities honoring the Chosen One who is supposed to bring harmony to the fighting legendary birds and help the beast of the sea quell their fighting.

A large shrine is present on the southern cliffs of Shamouti, facing Fire, Ice, and Lightning Islands, and is where the "Chosen One" is supposed to place the three treasures. Stone structures are set up around the altar in which the treasures are placed, and {{wp|hibiscus}} flowers grow all around. A {{pkmn2|talking}} {{p|Slowking}} makes his residence here. | A large shrine is present on the southern cliffs of Shamouti, facing Fire, Ice, and Lightning Islands, and is where the "Chosen One" is supposed to place the three treasures.
