I was trying to vaguely imagine what a Hisuian regional form time capsule made by Akari/Rei (and maybe Ingo too if he learns about the extinctions) might look like. My brain decided “actually no, don’t make it vague, draw the time capsule exactly” and then held me hostage and wouldn’t let me focus on anything else until I did so.

Notes under the cut:

A time capsule put together by the future folk who got stuck in Hisui, hoping that the DNA samples inside will survive a couple hundred years and make it to the future to be resurrected like the fossil pokémon are. Also included are traditionally made pokéballs, due to the assumption that there’s probably very few surviving ones and that archaeologists would love them, along with 2 books left with the intent of preserving knowledge that’d likely been forgotten. The items are all in individually padded compartments.

Based on the tech in Galaxy Hall, I’m assuming the Galaxy Team has the means to forge (or order from overseas?) a metal container that is watertight (and hopefully airtight as well). Idk a lot about time capsule construction, but their hope is that they create a container that’ll prevent the decay of the more fragile items in the box. Or at least hold the decay off long enough for the capsule to be opened.

List of Items:

Decidueye feather, fur from Typhlosian’s tail, fur from Samurott’s ‘whiskers’

Black Augurite, carapace sheds from Kleavor and Scyther

Peat Block, fur from Ursaluna, Ursaring, and Teddiursa

Quills from Qwilfish and Overqwill

Dried petals from Lilligant and a dried leaf from Petilil

Feathers from Rufflet and Braviary

Rock fragment from Avalugg

Bottles of slime from Goomy, Sliggoo, and Goodra

Fur from Zorua and Zoruark

Scales from male and female Basculin, as well as male and female Basculegion

Fragments from Voltorb and Electrode (naturally lost during self-destructs?)

Sneasel and Sneasler fur

Wyrdeer fur and a fragment of a shed antler, Stantler fur

Growlithe and Arcanine fur

Full set of pokéballs and the tumblestones they’re made from

A first edition Hisuian Pokédex

A book of notes on all the items in the box; it lists the items and their usage, as well as notes on the care and evolution requirements of the pokémon represented.

*Samples from native non-regional forms are included, just in case the pokémon are genetically different enough in the future that they truly cannot evolve into these Hisuian forms even with the items and knowledge to do so. (Does not include Bergmite. Most of Bergmite is just normal ice. Idk where it keeps its DNA)

#pla #pokemon legends arceus #pokemon #completely self indulgent #akari pokemon #rei pokemon #technically- they're the ones whod put this together #im assuming they can get dna from a fragment of avaluggs rock since they can get dna from fossils #or whatever the logic is #but im pretty sure bergmite ice is just normal ice made of water #maybe it has dna-infused ice??? but that shit would melt #and idk the logistics of whether dna-water would be any kind of thing #maybe it has bones? i dont think akari/rei would actively try to take a bermites bones tho #at least i hope not #this is the same conundrum i had with voltorb/electrode but theyre also part plant so maybe its just wood that can grow back #im pretty sure they dont have bones tho #people keep saying bergmites eyes would be a good dna sample #everything else here is a non-damaging sample yknow? im not gonna steal the poor things eyeballs #icys drawings and doodles
