The Next Pokemon Legends Game Has Perfect Blueprints For Regional Variants

One element that helped Pokemon Legends: Arceus succeed was the new approach to regional variants, so a second Pokemon Legends game would need only look to Pokemon‘s previous Pokedex entries for blueprints for all-new historical forms. Ever since they were first introduced, Pokemon‘s regional variants and evolutions have been a popular mainstay of the series, and so their inclusion in Pokemon Legends: Arceus was likely inevitable. But while some of its Hisuian variants fit Pokemon‘s canon such as Hisuian Voltorb and Electrode, others seemed more like an afterthought like Hisuian Lilligant and Braviary.
