Trainers, we're excited to announce the newest area opened by Professor Zahra - the Dominion of Spirits! The Dominion of Spirits is an area of the Perdition Dimension that has been cleared and purified. Much of the dimension remains sealed, but this specific area is believed to be the place where the spirits of Pokemon go to be tested.
This DLC introduces approximately 17 new Pokemon, including some forms for older Pokemon and 4 new Genesis Forms. Not only is there a regional variant, but there is also a new kind of variant - Dominion Forms. Dominion Forms are rare versions of current Pokemon that exist outside the Dominion of Spirits, but they can become Dominion Forms by either entering the Dominion of Spirits or by evolving while holding the Dominion Gem. Professor Zahra is introducing three new Dominion Forms to us today, so we're excited to see what more comes of this research!
Dominion Arsinoceros - Grass/Steel

Ceravine that evolve in the Perdition Dimension can become Dominion Arsinoceros. This form of Arsinoceros is somewhat stronger than regular Arsinoceros due to the presence of more Origin Energy in the Dominion of Spirits. This form of Arsinoceros has developed strong, durable steel humps instead of rocks. These steel bits replace most of the rocky bits on its anatomy, and as a result, it's significantly bulkier and harder to take down.
Dominion Venophlame - Fire/Ghost

Igniviper that evolve in the Perdition Dimension can become Dominion Venophlame. This form of Venophlame is somewhat stronger than regular Venophlame due to the presence of more Origin Energy in the Dominion of Spirits. Dominion Venophlame has also lost its Poison typing in favor of the Ghost type. Dominion Venophlame has evolved two extra heads in order to more adequately survey its surroundings. It can turn its heads into spectral projections and hide in the plan shadows, surprising opponents and biting them with all three heads.
Dominion Khelshark - Water/Fighting

Hemcyllon that evolve in the Perdition Dimension can become Dominion Khelshark. This form of Khelshark is somewhat stronger than regular Khelshark due to the presence of more Origin Energy in the Dominion of Spirits. Dominion Khelshark has lost its Steel typing in favor of the Fighting type. This form of Khelshark is more aerodynamic than regular Khelshark, and its long blade arms have revealed small fan axes instead. This Pokemon is also nearly 12x faster in water than on land.
Trait Originators and the Dominion Trait

Pokemon Traits are a huge part of the Carah Region's battle mechanics, Genesis Forms phenomenon, and history. However, recent research has revealed that certain Pokemon are the originators of certain traits. In other words, they were the first Pokemon to ever evolve the trait and have since passed it down to every other Pokemon via an Origin Energy transfer.
Additionally, the Dominion of Spirits' purification process has unveiled a new trait to us - the Dominion Trait. To find out more about this trait, head to the Battle Data section.
We hope our trainers are excited to explore the Dominion of Spirits for the next 5 updates. We look forward to meeting you again!
