The new Pokémon Scarlet and Violet trailer launched gamers to 3 new thrilling Pokémon, the fluffy and electrical Pawmi, greasy, gasping Smoliv, and the lil’ piggy Lechonk, who’s already the topic of adoring fan artwork and odes of safety. However on this chonk eat chonk world, nobody can shield the crusty-eyed pig from my voracious urge for food.
Can’t you see? Lechonk is scrumptious. Pokémon Scarlet and Violet appears prefer it’s set in a fantasy model of the Iberian Peninsula. Some folks have already noted that the brand new starters Smoliv and Lechonk parallel actual Iberian delicacies, inexperienced olives and black Iberian pigs. However the Pokémon Firm discourages us from devouring Smoliv, which one way or the other weighs 14.3 kilos (probably implying that Smoliv has 14 kilos of bones), and notes on its web site that the oil Smoliv produces “has a really robust bitter style, and it’s not appropriate for consumption.”
I perceive fully, The Pokémon Firm. You’re telling me I’ve no alternative however to shave off Lechonk’s heavy flesh and sacrifice its snout for the nice of the folks.
“Um, Ashley?” you say by way of tears. “However Lechonk is so lovely! Its outsized nostrils symbolize the elegant! Its small pink toes…so naked but in a position to maintain up its spherical physique, representing the fragile energy of all nature!”

Cease crying, little one. That is the way in which it needs to be. Within the Philippines and Latin America, lechon refers to suckling pig roasted complete on a spit. That is Lechonk’s namesake—that is its future. Lechonk wouldn’t know what it’s if it wasn’t being slaughtered, deboned, and rotated over fireplace till its pores and skin turned golden brown. Because it waits for demise, the wobbly regular kind Pokémon spends its time flirting with it, utilizing its aroma veil and gluttony skills to bravely face harmful opponents. You see? The younger pig revels in its noble destiny.
Although, there’s one drawback. The Pokémon Firm writes on its web site that whereas Lechonk has a taste-enhancing weight loss plan of aromatic wild grass and berries, its seemingly tubby physique is pure muscle “constructed by continually strolling round seeking meals.” Lechonk won’t ever be diminished to succulent, tearable meat just like the milk-fed pigs that make lechon, nor might it ever be fastidiously minimize into buttery slices of jamón ibérico. I assume I’ll simply have to attend for Lechonk’s offensive tweets from 2007 to floor so I can kill it anyway.
