The Ruins of Remembrance (Japanese: シューゴ遺跡 Shūgo Ruins) are a location on Aurus Island of the Lental region.

Layout

The NEO-ONE starts outside the ruins, where several Eldegoss and Houndoom can be found. The NEO-ONE will then descend into the ruins into a small room where a Noivern will fly into. This room is then followed by a large chamber with a large tree standing in the center, with only its trunk visible due to its immense height. Five statues are dotted throughout the chamber, representing the five Illumina Pokémon, along with nearby crystabloom. Several Golurk and Beheeyem are present in this chamber. As the player circles the chamber, a circle of all six crystabloom will also be present at the end of the route.

Alternate routes

• If all crystabloom are lit up inside the large chamber, the corresponding statue will light up as well. Some crystablooms will only be revealed after certain Pokémon are moved away (three Eldegoss near the fourth statue, Golurk and Natu with the fifth crystabloom). Near the end of the course, a circle of six crystabloom will be present Illuminating the Aurus island Crystabloom in the center will cause the altar to emit a beam of light. This will cause the Golurk and Beheeyem guarding the altar to move away, allowing the player to access the altar. This unlocks the Illumina Spot.

Illumina Spot

The Illumina Spot starts off in a small cave with a tree in its center. It will then enter a ruin with three rooms and circle back to the original cave. A ball of light will roam around in these rooms. If the ball is illuminated with an Illumina orb, Xerneas will appear briefly. Ancient ruins depicting a painted mural where Xerneas and the other Illumina Pokémon protecting Lental can be observed in the Illumina Spot.

001	Vivillon	3		Several Continental Vivillon appear behind the NEO-ONE if all the crystablooms inside the ruins have been lit up.
020	Magikarp	3		A well appears after the first room. Throwing multiple fluffruit into the well will cause several Woobat to appear, followed by a Magikarp.
201	Houndoom	1-3		Houndoom can be found outside the ruins, as well as in the first parts of the ruins interior.
			★★★★	Research level 3: Houndoom may occasionally stretch and yawn.
202	Eldegoss	1-3		A group of Eldegoss appear flying outside the ruins. Another group can be found grouped around a crystabloom inside the ruins. A lone Eldegoss also appears at the end of the path on the last statue.
			★★★★	Research level 3: A Natu will appear if a fluffruit is thrown at the ancient ruins outside. Once it eats a fluffruit, it will hop away from the ruins. As it passes by an Eldegoss, the Eldegoss will let out its seeds from its head.
203	Natu	1-3		A Natu will appear if a fluffruit is thrown at the ancient ruins outside. Another Natu can be found sleeping on a Golurk's shoulder inside the ruins. On research level 3, a group of Natu will be huddled together close to one of the statues.
			★★★★	Research level 1 (only): After the Natu is made to appear outside the ancient ruins, it will stand on a fluffruit rather than eating it. Research level 1+: Alternatively, Natu sleeping on Golurk's shoulder will yield a ★★★★ photo.
204	Absol	2-3		An Absol appears high above on a cliff outside the ruins. Another Absol can be found roaming around the ruins interior.
			★★★★	Research level 3: An Umbreon can be brought out of its hiding place in the first room of the ruins by throwing fluffruit to the left of the path. It will then appear sleeping inside the ruins towards the second half of the route. Throwing an Illumina orb will cause it to wake up. An Absol will join the Umbreon.
205	Salandit	1-3		Salandit can be found to the left of the path in the first room of the ruins. Several more can be brought out with fluffruit. Another group can be seen close to a crystabloom after the third statue.
			★★★★	Research level 3: A set of scratch marks can be observed near the Salandit inside the ruins. Throwing fluffruit at this area will cause a Salandit and Noivern to emerge. Salandit will attack with a Poison-type move.
206	Noivern	1-3		Noivern appears in the first room inside the ruins. Another Noivern will emerge deeper into the ruins when fluffruit are thrown onto scratch marks found on the ground inside the ruins.
			★★★★	Research level 1-2 (only): When the first Noivern is illuminated with Illumina orbs, it will let out a Supersonic. Research level 1+: Alternatively, a set of scratch marks can be observed on the ground inside the ruins close to the third statue. Throwing fluffruit at this area will cause a Noivern to fly in from a distance.
207	Woobat	1-3		Woobat emerge from a well just prior to entering the large inner chamber if fluffruit are thrown into the well. On research level 3, Woobat may also be found exiting the ruins into the outside if fluffruit are thrown into the ruins entrance.
			★★★★	Research level 3: A Woobat clinging onto a large central column can be found inside the ruins. Throwing a fluffruit at it and then scanning will cause it to use its sonar.
208	Sigilyph	1-3		Sigilyph can be found inside the ruins, first as the NEO-ONE descends into the large chamber, and another group towards the end of the route. One can be found sleeping behind the NEO-ONE as it descends into the final chamber.
			★★★★	Research level 3: The sleeping Sigilyph at the start of the final chamber can be awoken by throwing fluffruit at it. Throwing extra fluffruit will prompt it to start eating. It will then dance after eating the fluffruit.
209	Beheeyem	1-3		Several Beheeyem appear inside the large chamber. One will be guarding the altar with a Golurk if the crystablooms inside the ruins have not been illuminated.
			★★★★	Research level 3: One Beheeyem will be drowsing as it floats around inside the ruins close to a Golurk.
210	Golurk	1-3		Several Golurk can be found scattered inside the large chamber of the ruins. One will be guarding the altar with a Beheeyem if the crystablooms inside the ruins have not been illuminated. On research level 3, two GOlurk can be observed flying in the sky outside the ruins.
			★★★★	Research level 1+: The first two Beheeyem inside the ruins can be interrupted with a fluffruit. This will cause several Golurk to fly into the chamber.
211	Chandelure	2-3		A Chandelure appears as the NEO-ONE descends into the large chamber inside the ruins. On research level 2, it will wander around the ruins. On research level 3, it will be hidden on the left hand side and must be illuminated with an Illumina orb for it to reappear later in the route.
			★★★★	Research level 2 (only): Chandelure at various points inside the ruins, if uninterrupted, will begin to absorb energy from its surroundings. This can occur if it is brought out from behind the second statue once the nearby crystabloom is activated, or at the end of the route if the incoming Absol is distracted away with fluffruit. Research level 3: The Chandelure hidden on the left hand side of the large chamber must be illuminated before it reappears at the end. Feeding it a fluffruit, illuminating it with an Illumina orb, and then playing a melody causes it to stretch out its left arm.
212	Umbreon	3		An Umbreon can be brought out of its hiding place in the first room of the ruins by throwing fluffruit to the left of the path. It will then run away deeper into the ruins.
			★★★★	Research level 3: Once Umbreon has been brought out, it will then appear sleeping inside the ruins towards the second half of the route. Throwing an Illumina orb will cause it to wake up. An Absol will join the Umbreon.
213	Jirachi	1-3		Jirachi can be found flying away outside the ruins. It will later be found sleeping on one of the statues inside the ruins. It can be awoken by throwing several Illumina orbs at it. It will appear only in the post-game.
			★★★★	Research level 1+: Once Jirachi is awoken, it will reappear at the end of the course if all crystablooms inside the ruins interior have been illuminated. Illuminating Jirachi at the end of the course and then playing a melody will cause Jirachi to move around and dance.
