Pokémon Legends: Arceus takes place in the Hisui region, which is the Sinnoh region from Pokémon Diamond and Pearl but in the distant past.

Ever wondered what the world of Pokémon was like way back when? I know I have. That's why I was so excited to finally play Pokémon Legends: Arceus. It's not like any other Pokémon game I've played before. Instead of the usual journey to become a Pokémon master, you're a surveyor, helping to create the very first Pokédex. It's a fresh take on the series, and I'm loving every minute of it.

A Whole New World

The Hisui region is a vast and untamed wilderness. There are no gyms, no Pokémon League, and very few established towns. It's just you, your Pokémon, and the wild expanse of nature. One of my favorite things to do is just wander through the fields and forests, discovering new Pokémon and soaking in the scenery.

The cool thing about Hisui is that it's a familiar place, yet completely different. You'll recognize landmarks from Diamond and Pearl, but they'll be in their natural, untouched state. It's like seeing a piece of history come to life. As you explore, you'll uncover the secrets of the Hisui region and its connection to the legendary Pokémon, Arceus. And while you're at it, you'll be building a bond with your Pokémon like never before. I've found myself getting really attached to my team. We've been through a lot together, from battling fierce Alpha Pokémon to just relaxing by the campfire.

If you're a Pokémon fan, you owe it to yourself to experience this incredible journey. And if you need a little help with in-app purchases, remember that you can earn gift cards for the Nintendo eShop by playing games on Playstorm. That way, you can get the most out of your adventure in the Hisui region!
