Hisuian Evolutionary Forms

Some Hisuian forms of Pokemon have evolutionary stages that are technically not Hisuian themselves. See below for all non-Hisuian Pokemon with Hisuian base forms.

Basculegion ImageBasculegion
Accumulate 300 or more recoil damage from using Wave Crash in Agile Style
(Female)
Basculegion (Female) ImageBasculegion (Female)

White-Striped Basculin, as it's known, is not technically a Hisuian form, though it does look different from the Basculin of previous Pokemon games.

Previously known forms of Basculin are the Red-Striped Basculin and Blue-Striped Basculin. Neither of which can be found in Hisui, and neither of them are known to evolve into Basculegion.

Another piece of evidence that supports the idea that it isn't a Hisuian form is that it has the same typing and stats as the Basculin we've known in previous games.

What are Hisuian Form Pokemon?

Regional Variants of Previously Known Pokemon

Pokemon Legends Arceus - Hisuian Braviary Regional Form.png

In Pokemon Legends: Arceus, Hisuian Pokemon are regional forms of familiar Pokemon that have adapted to the Hisui region. Apart from their change in appearance, all Hisuian regional forms also have different typings and movesets!
