Region | Sinnoh |
Debut | Historical Mystery Tour! |
Xatu's Forest is an anime only location that appeared in Historical Mystery Tour!. It is an attraction found near Twinleaf Town. While Barry and Ash are having a battle, a Xatu appears, and Barry follows it, making Ash and Dawn do the same thing. Barry followed it because when he was younger, he had tried to go where it led him, but was too young. The three see a tent, and a clown and many Psychic-type Pokémon come out, describing the place as a location where one can become one with their past, present, and future. The three go in, experiencing important events in their life. All three of them also shrink. Ash relives the event when Spearow were attacking Pikachu and they bonded. Dawn relives the event when Ariados were attacking Piplup. Barry relives the event when he slathers honey on a tree and finds Heracross. There were a couple differences though, such as Dawn and Piplup being in a mountainous setting rather than a forest setting and Pikachu fending off a Spearow with Iron Tail. While experiencing these events, all three also saw a Natu, Xatu's pre-evolution. When they followed the Natu, they saw each other again.
