The '''Ginkgo Guild''' (Japanese: '''イチョウ商会''' ''Ichō Shōkai'', literally ''Ginkgo Merchant Guild'') are an ancient guild of merchants based in the [[Hisui]] [[region]]. They sell their wares whilst traveling the region.

==In the core series games==
The Ginkgo Guild operates from {{DL|Jubilife Village|Ginkgo Guild Cart|their cart}} outside the [[Galaxy Hall]] in [[Jubilife Village]]. From here, [[Ginter]] sells a variety of rare items that changes frequently, while [[Tuli]] sells a set variety of berries and plants.

Several other Ginkgo Guild members can be found across Hisui, though they do not offer any mercantile services. A member named Mani can be found in the basement of Galaxy Hall, where he assigns {{DL|Task|Requests|Request 82}}, asking the {{player}} to find traces of his ancestors' lost village in [[Avalanche Slopes]]. Another member, Eshim, can be found in the [[Coronet Highlands]] to help set up the [[Base camp|Mountain Camp]].

[[Volo]] is the only Ginkgo Guild member to have a major role within the story. However, rather than selling items in Jubilife Village, he travels across [[Hisui]] to learn about mythology. His curiosity often leads him to encounter the player in various regions of Hisui. [[Cogita]] frequently chides him for neglecting his merchant duties to explore ruins. During the main story, when the player has no access to [[Choy]]'s General Store in Jubilife Village, Volo offers [[Poké Ball]]s and [[medicine]] at the [[Ancient Retreat]], and later at the [[Temple of Sinnoh]].

==In the anime==
===Hisuian Snow===
In ''[[HIS01|Onto the Icy Blue]]'', a member of the Ginkgo Guild appears in a flashback when [[Alec]] was a child, trading items with his father, before both of them were scared by Alec wearing a Hisuian Zoroark mask.

In ''[[HIS03|Two Hues]]'', a few other members of the guild are seen arriving in Hisui along with Alec on a ship, including [[Volo]].
