Pokemon "Sand" is Pokemon of Tottori.Saw/read this from Siliconera, nice Monster Hunter sand sculpture:
Over this weekend, Capcom collaborated with the government of the Tottori prefecture to create a giant sand sculpture based on Monster Hunter World: Iceborne.
The Tottori sand sculpture shows off the Velkhana, Rathalos, Tigrex, as well as a Palico is surprisingly high detail, down to each individual scale. The reason why a sand sculpture was decided upon is because Tottori is famous for its sand dunes, the only dune system in Japan.
