Gracidea (Sinnoh)
(Japanese: グラシデア Glacidea) is a place presumably 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 between its Land Forme and Sky Forme.
In the anime
Glacidea was a place featured in the movie, Giratina and the Sky Warrior, which Shaymin had longed for and kept referring to as "that place".
In the games
Glacidea did not appear in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, but its equivalent is the Flower Paradise, as Shaymin is there in the games and there are plenty of flowers, just like Glacidea. In Pokémon Platinum Glacidea itself does not appear, but the Glacidea Flower is given to the player by a lady in Floaroma Town. In order to obtain it the player needs to have a Shaymin in their party. However, it must be owned by the player or obtained at an event.
Trivia
- Glacidea's name comes from the fact that it is next to a glacier. This was the same glacier that, in the movie, began moving and almost destroyed a nearby town because of Zero's actions in the Reverse World.
