Background / History

Akari is a girl from the future who was transported to Hisui under circumstances she cannot remember. Her appearance resembles Dawn’s, and Hu Yang identifies her as the protagonist associated with the Arceus events and a possible ancestor of Dawn 365 366.

At Mt. Coronet, Akari encountered Hu Yang during the conflict between Giratina, Dialga, and Palkia. Believing the crisis had to be stopped, she challenged him with Hisuian Typhlosion. Hu Yang refused to fight her directly, but Gengar defeated Typhlosion while Cramorant and Giratina attacked Palkia 365.

When the battle grew catastrophic, Akari’s anxiety activated the Arceus Phone. Its platinum light froze the destructive particles, restored the ruined landscape, and returned Mt. Coronet to Hisui. Arceus then descended, subdued the Legendary Pokémon, and restored Hu Yang and his team after Giratina’s influence had altered them 366.

Akari later reported the incident to Commander Kamado. Although Kamado suspected that Hu Yang had caused Hisui’s disasters, Akari disagreed and believed that he might have been misunderstood. She also continued her own training and battles with Rei 372.

According to Dialga, Akari eventually completed Arceus’s trial and earned its recognition through her bond with Pokémon. Although Arceus intended to return her to her original era, Akari chose to remain in ancient Hisui with her Pokémon companions 518. Ingo later described her as traveling with an Arceus avatar and defeating every warden with its help 570.
