Iscan (Japanese: ススキ Susuki) is a warden tasked with watching over a special Basculegion.

In the core series

Iscan lives by the sea. He is timid and easily frightened, and as such, he dislikes Ghost-type Pokémon, with the exception of Basculegion. He and his Basculegion saved Palina - a warden from the Pearl Clan - when he was younger. The two of them soon began a romantic relationship, which they keep a secret to the rest of the clan members, since they are aware of Palina's bad reputation amongst the clans and Palina doesn't want Iscan to also get a bad reputation because of her.
