Hisuian Zoroark VstarLost Origin #147 Pokémon Card

Hisuian Zoroark is a dual Normal/Ghost-type Pokémon, a regional variant introduced in Generation VIII's *Pokémon Legends: Arceus*. Unlike its Unovan counterpart, which is a Dark-type, Hisuian Zoroark is characterized by its ghostly white fur and red accents, reflecting its tragic origins in the harsh Hisui region. This variant is said to have been driven to extinction in ancient Hisui by humans who feared its illusions, only to be reborn as a Ghost-type fueled by resentment and a desire to protect its kin. It evolves from Hisuian Zorua. In the games, Hisuian Zoroark is known for its unique move, Bitter Malice, and its ability to inflict status conditions while dealing damage. Its type combination gives it immunities to Ghost and Fighting-type attacks, while being weak to Dark-type moves. In the anime and *Legends: Arceus*, Hisuian Zoroark often appears as a mysterious and powerful protector, capable of creating potent illusions to defend itself and others. Its lore highlights themes of prejudice, survival, and the profound impact of human actions on the natural world, making it a poignant figure in the Pokémon universe. Its distinct design and backstory have quickly made it a fan favorite, embodying the unique narrative approach of the Hisui region.
