Other Pokémon
On hand
Before forming a sync pair with Hisuian Samurott, Akari tried to form a sync pair with her Pikachu, but was unable to, as sync stones don't work well with Hisuian Poké Balls. She also mentions that some other Pokémon came with her from Hisui as well, but the identities of these Pokémon are not known.
