The Treasures of Ruin (Japanese: 災いの宝 Treasures of Calamity) are a quartet of Legendary Pokémon consisting of Wo-Chien, Chien-Pao, Ting-Lu, and Chi-Yu. They reside in the Paldea region.
The four Treasures of Ruin share a primary type, Dark, as well as the signature move Ruination. Their signature abilities are all variations of each other, sharing the effect of lowering a certain stat by 25% for all Pokémon on the field except themselves when they are in battle.
History
The four Treasures of Ruin were once special treasures found in the east. These four treasures were a set of wooden tablets, a sword, a vessel, and a set of beads that had been corrupted by negative human emotions to become Pokémon. Long ago, in the ancient times of Paldea, a king who once ruled gained possession of them from merchants in his greed for riches. Said king's malice caused the four treasures to awaken, causing them to go berserk and cause disasters that would destroy the kingdom. The four were then sealed away in shrines across Paldea by ancient Pokémon wielders after fierce battles.
