This map depicts the area around the settlement of Jubilife, base of the Galaxy Expedition Team.
Many children can be seen, perhaps indicating that the fear of Pokémon had lessened and life had stabilized by this time.

This map depicts theCoronet Highlands, as well as theCrimson Mirelands andLake Valor.
Though very different from the modern Sinnoh region, the geography itself is accurately shown.
It is believed that the surveyor viewed the area from above while riding upon a flying Pokémon.

His originalPokédex was long assumed to be lost, until a partial facsimile was found in the shed of a private house in theSinnoh region.
This discovery has helped advance the studies of Professor Laventon and the Pokédex he created.
His work has been reevaluated in recent years, with particular appreciation for his accurate sketches of Pokémon and his gift for capturing Pokémon's quirks within his skillful descriptions.
It is said his Pokédex was not in fact completed by Laventon himself but bya mysterious, 15-year-old youth who appeared out of nowhere one day.

People of the time crafted their own Poké Balls usingApricorns and the mineral tumblestone.
Many varities are said to have been crafted, each displaying different properties depending on what materials were used.
Crafting one's own Poké Balls in the modern age would be a true labor of love, given the difficulty.

Here is the interior of a standard house in theearly settlement of Jubilife.
Though sparsely furnished, it contains everything needed for fieldwork and daily life, including hardy clothes, sandals, and boots.
Some houses also contained items the residents brought with them from their home regions.

Above is shown the interior of the hairdresser, while below is the interior of the clothier.
While life in Hisui is often regarded as one of scarcity, residents were able to live in relative comfort by befriending Pokémon, as well as by using gathered materials to craft items.
The hairdresser also seemed to host salons, with some residents gathering to play a game known as "Go" at the establishment.

A space whereGalaxy Expedition Team members honed their skills for battling using Pokémon they had caught.
It is worth noting that wild Pokémon were still regarded as terrifying creatures at the time.

The general store is believed to have played a central role in providing supplies to the settlers.
There are records of other enterprises as well, such as a clothier and a photography studio.

Within the settlement of Jubilife, fields were established to grow crops. Beyond its walls was the beach where settlers first came ashore.
As more Pokémon were surveyed and the area was developed, so too did the population grow.
It is said that the Pokémon they befriended also helped with various tasks, such as farming.

Food prepared in Hisui by cooking sootfoot roots, which could be harvested in Hisui at the time.
A recipe has even been found in writings from the period:
"Sootfoot, humble root—harvest it, and peel it.
"Broiled, baked, or steamed will do, just let nobody steal it.
"Mash the root, then knead the mash, then once more heat it over.
"Grill it only till it browns—use Ember, not Flamethrower.
"Now hearken well, and listen closely—the wise adore potato mochi."

A satchel that was supplied to members of the Galaxy Term Survey Corps. Should a Survey Corps member be knocked out while conducting a survey, the Security Corps would rescue them and retrieve their satchel.

However, the truth of this tale remains unknown.
The flag itself seems to have been made using threads from Pokémon.

Recreation of a kimono worn byKamado, first commander of theGalaxy Expedition Team.
The kimono uses many different types of thread and is ornately decorated, showing that much effort was put into its creation.
Thus is is assumed the kimono was quite costly, but it is unknown whether Kamado acquired it himself or if it was given to him as a gift.
The pattern provides evidence thatGolduck could be found at the time the cloth was embroidered.

A suit of armor worn in battle byKamado, the first commander of the Galaxy Expedition Team.
It is said to have come from theGalar region and bears a strong resemblance to the armor worn byWikstrom, anElite Four member of theKalos region'sPokémon League.
When contacted for comment, Wikstrom said it was possible this armor was one of several suits his ancestors gave to Galarians.
However, it is difficult to verify such claims, given relations between Kalos and Galar during the era.

An NPC next to this exhibit tells the player that thewearer personally donated the outfit to the collection, and spent time observing the Pokémon sketches drawn byProfessor Laventon.

As its name would suggest, this cave was used in ancient times as a stone quarry.
The clean cuts on the rock surfaces are signs of advanced techniques or possibly skilled command of Pokémon.
Either way, the results are impressive even in this modern age.

An artist's rendition of what the ruins known as theSpear Pillar would look like if restored.
It is said that these ruins once housed 10 statues depicting Pokémon known as lords or ladies.

Records show that the name "Spear Pillar" was coined by the Survey Corps of the time.
