Hisuian Zorua Type and Basic Info

Hisuian Zorua - Description

Hisuian Zorua was first revealed alongside Hisuian Zoroark as new Normal/Ghost-type variants of their original Dark-type counterparts. After being shunned away by humans because of its illusions, Zorua migrated to the Hisui region where they died off, unable to survive the harsh environments.

Their souls remain and their spite against humans empower them to manifest as Ghost-like foxes. A Hisuian Zorua was shown to be under the care of a Hisuian Zoroark when it was first teased.
