First up we’ve got the (doubtless) first evolution of the brand new fireplace starter, Fuecoco. Crocalor appears to be like much like its pre-evolution, besides it’s carrying a wide-brimmed hat. Truthfully, this one appears to be like sort of mid. Aside from the hat, it doesn’t look that totally different from Fuecoco. Boo, I say.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet shall be (formally) launched for Nintendo Change on November 18.
