New POKEMON LEGENDS ARCEUS Trailer Introduces New Faces From Hisui Region

A new trailer for Pokémon Legends Arceus has arrived to introduce us to the clans of the region and some traveling merchants you can encounter. 

Diamond clan is led by Adaman, a young man who hates to see time go to waste and likes to rush forward without worrying too much about particulars. His companion Pokémon is Leafeon. His personality seems to match the clan’s ideals of the importance of cherishing the present and living in the moment with one’s allies.

Pearl clan’s leader is Irida with her companion Pokémon Glaceon. She feels it is important to have the courage to face the vast Hisui region as she embodies her clan’s core belief in the importance of valuing the vast, spacious land shared with others.​

Though both clans tend to clash on beliefs, they both pay respects to various noble pokemon in the region. It’s by helping these noble Pokémon that the player will be able to gain the trust of these clans.

The Ginko Guild is a traveling group of merchants. Not originally from the Hisui region, these merchants travel all over the world to sell their wares.

It has also been announced that players with a save file for Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl will have access to the dark type mythical Pokémon Darkrai as well as the modern team Galactic set. You can check out the new trailer below and look for the game releasing for Nintendo Switch on January 28, 2022.
