In addition to the early-purchase bonus of the Hisuian Growlithe Kimono Set, the Baneful Fox Mask will be gifted to early purchasers of Pokemon Legends: Arceus. Players can don this unique Hisuian Zoroark–themed Baneful Fox Mask as they enjoy their adventures in the Hisui region!
Introducing the Newly Discovered Hisuian Forms of Zorua and Zoroark
These Zorua migrated to the Hisui region after being driven from other lands by humans, who shunned the Pokemon for manifesting uncanny illusions. But the Zorua perished, unable to survive the harsh Hisuian environment and strife with other Pokemon. Their lingering souls were reborn in this Ghost-type form through the power of their malice toward humans and Pokemon.
Disguising Themselves and Feeding on Targets’ Terror
If Hisuian Zorua spot a lone person or Pokemon, the Zorua may appear before them in a guise mimicking the target’s appearance. Unlike the illusions of the previously discovered form of Zorua, these ghostly mimicries are created using spiteful power emitted from the long fur on Hisuian Zorua’s head, around its neck, and on its tail.

Cursed Illusions Erupt Forth from Its Voluminous Coat
The spiteful power emitted from Hisuian Zoroark’s long, writhing fur projects terrifying illusions—and can also inflict physical harm upon foes, damaging their bodies from both inside and out. And the illusions that Zoroark projects have expressions of such utter malice toward every last thing upon this world that those who see them are said to be driven mad by the terror.
A Pokemon with an Unexpected Soft Side
Hisuian Zoroark is ferociously hostile and aggressive toward people and other Pokemon. But it appears to have a compassionate streak for those it considers close or like family.
Pokemon Legends: Arceus is due out for Switch on January 28, 2022 worldwide.
