Legends: Arceus DLC Can Show How Gyms & Pokémon Centers First Began
WhilePokémon Legends: Arceus covers a handful of interesting series lore, a potential DLC update could flesh out so much more, such as showing how Pokémon Gyms first began.

The 2022 title even explores how Pokémon are able to fit into their Poké Balls and threw out decades of accepted theory by stating that Pokémon actually have the ability to shrink themselves.
