In November 2024, Quagsire was appointed “Kochi Support Pokémon.” Kochi Prefecture has the highest concentration of forested land in Japan. The verdant forests give rise to the crystal-clear waters of the Shimanto River, Niyodo River, and many other streams, where one can easily picture Quagsire leisurely swimming. Through various initiatives, Quagsire will help promote the endless charms of Kochi Prefecture, from the seas where the Kuroshio Current ebbs and flows, to the mighty mountains, to the unspoilt landscapes of yesteryear.
This carefree Pokémon has an easygoing nature. While swimming, it always bumps into boat hulls.
Kochi Prefecture encompasses the southern half of Shikoku island, facing the vast Pacific Ocean. While it is often associated with its coastline, it is also the most forested prefecture in Japan. The prefecture is blessed with beautiful natural landscapes, such as the forests that cover 84% of its land mass and the crystal-clear waters of the Shimanto River, Niyodo River, and many other streams. You’ll surely be tantalized by Kochi’s seasonal delicacies, nurtured by its rich nature, and the warm-hearted locals known for their free and easy spirit, and their generosity! Why not take a break from your busy daily life and come experience a laid-back getaway in this charming prefecture?
