Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are the latest Pokémon video games on the block, and the primary new mainline entry within the sequence since Pokémon Sword and Defend got here out in November 2019. Scarlet and Violet will probably be out later this yr — the 18th November, 2022, to be actual — and so they’re each primarily based across the Iberian Peninsula, so count on a variety of Spanish and Portuguese cultural references.
Listed here are all the brand new Pokémon we learn about to this point:
Sprigatito
Sprigatito is a mix of “sprig” — like, uh, a plant — and “gatito”, the Spanish for “small cat”. He’s a small cat, and he’s grass-type. He is 1’4″ tall, 9 lbs, and his means is Overgrow. We additionally know that he’s able to photosynthesis, and he has a particular transfer that “releases a candy aroma” to make opponents lose their will to battle.
Fuecoco
Fuecoco is a tiny lad referred to as the “Fireplace Croc Pokémon”, and his identify comes from the Spanish “fuego”, which means hearth, and “cocodrilo”, a crocodile. He is speculated to seem like a chili pepper, however we predict he appears to be like like an apple. He is fire-type, clearly, 1’4″ tall, 21.6 lbs (he is a heavy boy!) and he has the power Blaze. His particular transfer is the power to soak up warmth via his scales, and convert them into hearth power.
Quaxly
Quaxly is the final of the three starter Pokémon. He is the water-type Duckling Pokémon, the tallest of the three at 1’8″ tall, 13.4 lbs, and with the power Torrent. His signature transfer is a few sort of leg-related one, we suspect, because the official web site states that “in battle, it kicks its opponents swiftly and repeatedly.”
Pawmi
Pawmi is an electric-type Mouse Pokémon (sounds acquainted) who stands at simply 1 foot tall, and weighs a tiny 5.5 lbs. He is one of many Pokémon utilized by your good friend, Nemona, with the power Static or Pure Treatment. He can generate electrical energy by rubbing his cheeks, and we formally suppose that Sport Freak has run out of concepts. He is VERY cute although, so it is laborious to care.
Lechonk
Lechonk is one other of Nemona’s Pokémon, a mix of lechon (pork) and chonk (like, chonky. Chunky. He is fats). He is a normal-type Hog Pokémon, 1’8″ tall, and a whopping 22.5 lbs, with the power Aroma Veil (which repels bug Pokémon) or Gluttony. The web site says that he “might seem fats at first look, however in actuality, the Pokémon’s physique is generally muscle constructed by consistently strolling round in the hunt for meals.” Awww.
Smolive
Smolive, the final of Nemona’s Pokémon, is — get this — a small olive. We love him. He is a twin grass and normal-type Olive Pokémon, 1′ tall, 14.3 lbs (in all probability because of the olive pit), and he has the power Early Fowl. Very similar to a camel, Smolive shops vitamins within the type of oil within the fruit on its head, so he can go for per week with out consuming or ingesting. The oil may also be used as a weapon, however principally to purchase this scaredy-olive time to run away.
Koraidon
Koraidon (left) is the primary of the 2 legendaries, which gamers of Pokémon Scarlet will get to satisfy. Not a lot is thought about Koraidon, however based on Pokéjungle, “korai” means “historic” in Japanese. He appears to be like dragon-type, at the very least, perhaps with a twin combating or hearth kind.
Miraidon
Miraidon (proper) is the legendary for Pokémon Violet, and Pokéjungle says that “mirai” means “future” in Japanese — and he definitely appears to be like the half, as a result of he appears to be like like a dragon made out of automotive components. Maybe dragon/electrical kind?
