Meeting Reggie and Akemi had been an unexpected bonus. As they continued chatting, Yong learned more about the Sinnoh Region.
Its climate, for instance. Unlike the warm Hoenn Region in the south, the Sinnoh Region lay in the northern part of the Pokémon World.
This made Sinnoh cold. Its northern areas saw snow year-round, while certain southern areas received rain. In some parts of Sinnoh, snow could blanket entire roads. Cities such as Snowpoint City were completely covered in snow, and the local Pokémon had long since adapted to the climate.
This would be a great place to catch Ice-type Pokémon...
But what interested Yong most were Sinnoh's legends-its creation myths!
According to Sinnoh legend, an egg appeared amid a mixture of chaos and swirling turmoil. From this egg hatched the "creator," Arceus! Arceus created the universe, and the fragments left over from creation became Plates, bestowing different powers upon all things.

Arceus then created Dialga, "time," Palkia, "space," and Giratina, "shadow"! They were given dominion over time, space, and antimatter respectively, while the Adamant Orb, Lustrous Orb, and Griseous Orb were created alongside them.
The twin gods of time and space! Dialga! Palkia! Giratina, the "lord of the Distortion World"!
Later, because Giratina wreaked destruction upon the material world, the twin gods of time and space joined forces to banish Giratina to a ruined world-the "Distortion World"!

Afterward, Arceus created Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf, granting knowledge, emotion, and willpower to all living beings that came to the Pokémon World.
The Lake Guardians! Uxie! Mesprit! Azelf!
Finally, these three Pokémon slipped into Lake
