Ruins

Ruins of Alph in Johto

Ruins are the remains of old or ancient buildings or structures in the Pokémon world. Ruins are often home to rare or even Legendary Pokémon. Several in particular are home to the Legendary giants. Many unnamed ruins and old watchtowers can also be found scattered throughout the Paldea region.

The ruins of Pasio are replica ruins, constructed in their current state but modeled after ruins found in other regions. While these are not real ruins, they often spark the interest of Legendary Pokémon such as Giratina and Eternatus.
