Latest insights disclosed for Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, Pokémon Shining Pearl, and Pokémon Legends: Arceus video games

In the latest addition to the Pokémon universe, two new Pokémon have been discovered: Hisuian Zoroark and Hisuian Zorua. Both Pokémon belong to the Normal/Ghost type and hail from the Hisui region, a historical version of the Sinnoh region.

Hisuian Zoroark stands at a height of 5'3" (1.6 m), and its Baneful Fox Pokémon category suggests a creature of malevolent and terrifying power. Its spiteful power projects illusions that can inflict physical harm upon foes, damaging their bodies from both inside and out. The illusions of Hisuian Zoroark are said to have expressions of utter malice, causing those who see them to be driven mad by the terror. However, despite its ferocious hostility and aggression, Hisuian Zoroark has a compassionate streak for those it considers close or like family.

Hisuian Zorua, on the other hand, is a Spiteful Fox Pokémon with a height of 2'4" (0.7 m). Its spiteful power emitted from its long fur on head, neck, and tail creates ghostly mimicries that can inflict physical harm upon foes.

Early-Purchase Bonuses for Pokémon Legends: Arceus

For those who preorder Pokémon Legends: Arceus, there are early-purchase bonuses available. The Hisuian Growlithe Kimono Set and Baneful Fox Mask are among these bonuses. To claim these bonuses, players need to connect their Nintendo Switch system to the internet and have a Nintendo Account.

Launch Dates and Preorders for Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl

Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl were both released on November 19, 2021, and are currently available for preorder with special early-purchase bonuses. These games will take players back to the Sinnoh region, where they will encounter three lakes filled with bountiful water: Lake Acuity, Lake Verity, and Lake Valor. It is said that Legendary Pokémon slumber at the bottom of these lakes.

In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl, players will encounter the Boss and Commanders of the Mysterious Team Galactic: Cyrus with Weavile, Mars with Purugly, Jupiter with Skuntank, and Saturn with Toxicroak. Gym Leaders Volkner, Candice, and other trainers will also be present, with their teams consisting of Electric-, Ice-, and other types of Pokémon.
