Basically, the local Pokémon glow, and Mirror doesn’t know why.Ī Meganium glows with mysterious Illumina energy. In Lental, under the direction of Pokémon researcher and historian Professor Mirror, players study the region’s indigenous creatures and a local phenomenon known as Illumina. This all takes place in a new region of the Pokémon world: Lental, an archipelago with a surprising variety of biomes, from white sand beaches to foggy forests to an active volcano. As players progress, they’ll spot new Pokémon, see new behaviors, and unlock new areas: jungles, deserts, reefs, and more. Capturing specific moments (e.g., Bouffalant fighting each other, Scorbunny showing off with a Blaze Kick) is key to success. Taking photos of each helps complete one’s Photodex, an in-game catalog of Pokémon and their behaviors. Players start off in an area known as Floria Nature Park, where Pokémon like Grookey, Pichu, Bidoof, and Bouffalant frolic.
