We don’t know his name but he sure is cute
The next iteration of the Pokémon anime has just started in Japan and it has already introduced us to a new type of Pokémon.
We don’t have a name yet, but she looks like a crystal-encrusted turtle with giant, twinkling eyes. The Pokémon Company has confirmed that trainers will be able to learn more about the new Pokémon in its upcoming DLC for Scarlet Pokemon And VioletAnd The hidden treasure of Zone Zero.
The unknown Pokemon first appeared in Pokemon Horizons: The Series in Japan, but fans in the US won’t be able to see it animated until it’s released worldwide later this year.
The information we have indicates that it may be the next Legendary Pokémon series and that it is related to Terapagos in some way. Terapagos is one of five new Pokémon coming Scarlet Pokemon And VioletThe upcoming expansion alongside Ogerpon, Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti.
