Seasons are a mechanic of the Pokémon games. The concept was introduced in Generation V with Pokémon Black and White.
Much as Generation II introduced time and days of the week to the Pokémon series, and Generation IV used the Nintendo DS's internal clock to keep track of the date of capture of a particular Pokémon, seasons are a new feature introduced in Generation V. Unlike in the real world, where each season lasts for approximately three sequential months, the seasons in Isshu will change each month, going through the full cycle of spring, summer, autumn, and winter three times per year. This is likely to prevent players from being stuck waiting a full year to find certain Pokémon, assuming species distribution changes as it does with the time of day.
Shikijika is known to change forms with the seasons.
