Nuestras predicciones totalmente infalibles para las formas Hisui en Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Kantō: Alakazam, Reinicio de Kanto, or Gengar

Three of the original trade evolutions, Alakazam, Reinicio de Kanto, and Gengar haven’t gotten the love other members of their generation have—excluding the Mega Evolutions Game Freak bestowed Alakazam and Gengar almost 10 years ago. Generation I’s other trade evolution, Los bloques Froglight emiten luz., received an Alolan form, sin embargo. It’s time Golem’s compatriots caught up.

An Alakazam as an old hermit hiding in out-of-the-way caves? A Machamp as a master of a traditional fighting style? Gengar before it became a ghost? Our predictive powers tell us at least one will happen.

administración: Raikou, Entei, and Suicune

150 years prior to the events of Pokémon Oro y Plata, lightning struck the Brass Tower in Ecruteak City. The flames killed three unnamed Pokémon before a severe downpour put out the fire. Ho-Oh then revived the Pokémon into Raikou, Entei, and Suicune, granting each the power of the lightning bolt that struck the tower, the flames that consumed it, and the water that put the fire out.

Some have speculated that the three Pokémon that perished were Jolteon, Pokémon x Oso Caminante, and Vaporeon respectively, but it’s never been confirmed. As these events took place in the Pokémon world’s ancient history, the original forms of the three legendary dogs making an appearance in Hisui isn’t Farfetch’d.

Hoenn: Flygon

Fans have clamoured for some love for Flygon since it was snubbed for a Mega Evolution. A Hisui form that shifts around its stats and gives it a new typing, perhaps Bug/Ground or Bug/Dragon to better fit its insectoid appearance, will finally do justice for the fan favourite that has lived in Salamence’s shadow since 2003.

Sinnoh: Mamoswine

Generation IV introduced third stage evolutions for a bevy of Pokémon, including Magnezone, Rhyperior, Porygon-Z, Electivire, Magmortar, and Mamoswine. A handful of these Pokémon or their pre-evolutions have already been spotted in trailers, including Magmortar and Rhyperior, which both would have made good guesses for a Hisui form.

Of these, our predictive powers surmise that Mamoswine will get Hisuified. While the game doesn’t take place in an ice age, a mammoth Pokémon that evolves knowing the move Ancient Power fits thematically.

Unova: Volcarona

Generation V’s pseudo-legendary Bug type makes for an easy prediction. Its Pokédex entries state that ancient people feared it and referred to it as ‘the rage of the sun.’ It’s also said to have rescued Pokémon that were suffering from the cold. What are two things we know Hisui has plenty of? That’s right – ancient people and cold weather.

What that Pokémon would look like, sin embargo, we cannot see in our Crystal Ball of Speculation, as the Bug/Fire type suits Volcarona perfectly. Perhaps Volcarona could fill the unused Fairy/Fire-type, allowing its Bug typing to take a back seat the same way the Dragon-type does for Gyarados and Charizard.

Kalos: Aegislash

The Royal Sword Pokémon is one of the more iconic designs to come out of Generation VI. Both thematically and aesthetically, Game Freak gave these Pokémon a lot of love. Aeglislash’s signature ability, Stance Change, is too unique not to see a return in Hisui.

But European style swords don’t really fit in a world modelled after ancient Japan, derecho? Aegislash redesigned as a katana does, and instead of Stance Change switching between a sword and shield form, Aegislash will flip between katana fighting styles as a Steel/Fighting type.

Eso, or our inner-anime fan has clouded our prescient judgement.

Alola: Passimian and Oranguru

No sabemos de ti, but the regions inspired after America – Unova and Alola – being home to a bunch of monkey-themed Pokémon rather than the Japanese-inspired regions (other than Mankey and Chimchar), doesn’t sit well with us. Really, there aren’t any monkeys indigenous to Hawaii, yet Alola has two monkey Pokémon!

This is less of a prediction and more of a call on Game Freak to right a grievous wrong.

Hisui deserves a few more primates. A swap between Passimian and Oranguru’s types – Fighting and Normal/Psychic respectively – would make for an interesting twist and help populate Hisui’s forests.

Galar: Duraludon and Dragapult

Much like the monkeys, the more Dragon types in Hisui, el mejor. Our fortune-telling powers tell us Game Freak will historically walk back both Generation VIII dragons the same way they reverted Voltorb into an Electric/Grass type to match Hisui’s ancient Pokéballs.

Roaming the highest reaches of Mount Coronet, players will find a Grass/Dragon Duraludon based off of traditional thatched huts and a pure Dragon type Dragapult. Probablemente.

The Hisuian Starters’ Final Evolutions

While we know what Decidueye, Tiflosión, and Samurott look like, it’s a little bit suspicious that none of them have been spotted in the trailers. Only the base forms have made an appearance, leading us to speculate that these three will receive the first ever regional forms for starter Pokémon.

Combine that with our psychic powers, and we’ve learned that Decidueye and Samurott will play more into their archer and samurai designs respectively, and receive secondary typings to match. A Grass/Dark Robin Hood-esque archer? A Water/Steel samurai wearing full armor? Typhlosion is harder to pin down. The bipedal weasel-like Pokémon does look somewhat like a warrior when the fringe of flames along its neck ignites, so we think Game Freak will go that route.

Desafortunadamente, our vision of the future is clouded, so we can’t say for certain.
