Action meets RPG in a bold Pokémon adventure set in the ancient Hisui region.

Embark on survey missions to explore vast natural expanses, catch wild Pokémon in the field, and help build the region’s first Pokédex. Blending action and exploration with the classic RPG roots of the series, your journey uncovers the mystery of the Mythical Pokémon Arceus in the land that would one day be known as Sinnoh.

Study Pokémon behavior, sneak through tall grass, and toss a well-aimed Poké Ball to catch them in the overworld. You can also throw the Poké Ball containing your ally to seamlessly enter battle, letting you engage on your terms.

Traverse land, sea, and sky on the backs of Pokémon to reach every corner of Hisui. Mount Coronet rises from the center of the region, which features distinct environments to survey and catalog.

Master new battle tactics by unleashing moves in speedy Agile Style or powerful Strong Style. Along the way, meet newly discovered evolutions and regional forms, and learn more about Arceus—the key to this mysterious tale.

A free Daybreak software update adds special mass outbreaks across Hisui and new challenges, including battles against powerful opponents like Legendary Pokémon and wardens at the Jubilife Village training grounds. Daybreak content becomes available after viewing the game’s end credits; certain challenges unlock after completing all missions.
