[Discussion] Any ideas for Sinnoh regional variants?

I'm making a Platinum remake, which you can find in the games showcase section, and I intend to include regional variants in it! The only thing is, I don't really have any good ideas. I've made one already, Sinnohan Mimikyu, which bases its costume on Pachirisu rather than Pikachu.

Hmmm considering how Sinnoh's boxart legendaries are time, space and antimatter, why not some forms based on these concepts?

A clock-themed Hoothoot and Noctowl (Flying and Psychic/Dark/Ghost);
A compass rose Klink line might be cool (I'd think Flying-type, but prob because in Portuguese it's called "wind rose");
For antimatter, I read somewhere that a particle and its anti-particle carry opposite charges, so what about Electric/Ghost Plusle and Minun?

Btw, those custom sprites look amazing!

I think a cool idea would be a ninja themed Zorua line. I think their based on assassins so a ninja theme would be cool.

Even with the expanded dex of Platinum, there could definitely be more fire-types, maybe aim for one of those?

I really like this idea too, they could be like the signature Pokémon of those ninja boy trainers who like to pop out of the ground and surprise you.

I definitely do want a good variety of fire types in the game, and have already included some extras like the Growlithe line, Fletchling line, and Oricorio, but I want to do a fire regional variant too. Do you have any candidates?

Here's a little spitball, feel free to take some ideas:
-A pure-fire burning sun-based Minior
-A Ghost/Fire wildfire-burnt tree ghost Trevenant line
-A Fire/Fairy or Fire/Dark Impidimp line based off of demons
-Pure Fire-type Falinks based on Greek Fire
