- For the flower with the same name, see Gracidea (flower).
Gracidea (Japanese: グラシデア Glacidea) is a vast area located in Sinnoh. It is near the top of a mountain. Shaymin, along with others of its species, lives here. If a Shaymin touches one of the flowers native to this place, it will immediately change form.
In the anime
Gracidea was a place featured in the movie, Giratina and the Sky Warrior. Shaymin was in a rush to get there in time for "flower bearing", a ritual where many Shaymin gather, transform into Sky Forme, and fly away to start a new Gracidea garden in a faraway place.
The Gracidea garden featured in the movie was located at the base of a glacier, and was threatened with destruction when Zero's actions in the Reverse World caused it to start moving. Regigigas, who inhabited a temple in the mountains of Gracidea, awoke just in time to help stop the pending disaster.
In the English dub, this was also referred to as the "flower garden."
In the games
Gracidea did not appear in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, but its equivalent is the Flower Paradise, as Shaymin can be found there in the games and there are plenty of flowers, just like Gracidea. In Pokémon Platinum, the Gracidea is given to the player by a lady in Floaroma Town. Any Shaymin can transform from this flower, but the player can only obtain it if they have a Shaymin given away at a Nintendo event in their party.
Trivia
Gracidea's name may come from the word "gratitude", because Shaymin is the Gratitude Pokémon.
