Holon: Difference between revisions

'''Holon''' is a region shown in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG]] that is presumed to be north of [[Kanto]], considering that it seems to be close to [[Eidolon Forest]], in which case it would be near [[Kanto]]. It is the only officially revealed and acknowledged region where δ Delta Species Pokémon can be found.

THe Holon region was first revealed to the public in the 2005 release of the {{TCG|EX Delta Species}} set. The location came to be known as "Holon" because nearly all the cards the described region was shown on had "Holon" in the title.  Fans recognized the area as a secluded town where scientists were feverishly attempting to catch the elusive '''Mirage Pokémon''', {{p|Mew}}, presumably tracking its present location by use of the city tower's electromagnetic waves. However, the electromagnetic waves apparently caused the local Pokémon to mutate into abnormal types inconsistant with their genes elsewhere, with their highest evolved forms typically having {{TCG|Metal}} as a type. The affected Pokémon came to be known as [[Δ Delta Species|Delta species]].

*In {{TCG|EX Delta Species}}, the main landscape was city walkways with the Holon tower spewing out electromagnetic radiation in the background.

*In {{TCG|EX Holon Phantoms}}, the main landscape is a lake, surrounded by marshes. Although perhaps it is pure coincidence, the set also features a [[Alternate Coloration|Shining]] {{p|Gyarados}} card, [[Gyarados ☆ δ (EX Holon Phantoms 102)|Gyarados]] [[Image: Shiningsymbol.gif]] δ.  There was also an [[Alternate Coloration|alternately colored]] {{p|Gyarados}} in the [[Lake of Rage]] in the second-generation video games.  The [[Gyarados ☆ δ (EX Holon Phantoms 102)|Gyarados]] [[Image: Shiningsymbol.gif]] δ in this set may be implying the presence of another [[Alternate Coloration|Shining]] {{p|Gyarados}} in the Holon lake, similar to that in the [[Lake of Rage]].

*In {{TCG|EX Crystal Guardians}}, the main landscape consists of islands bearing strange crystals. Although the precise location of the islands is unknown, it can be concluded that they are near the rest of the Holon region because the Pokémon are Delta Species, and thus reached by the afforementioned electromagnetic waves.

*In {{TCG|EX Dragon Frontiers}}, the last set to contain Delta Species Pokémon, the main landscape seems to be mountainous area so high up that often only clouds are seen down below.
