Plenty of new Pokemon has came out for Pokemon Scarlet & Violet.
And we figure you would like a round up of a few of them that have came out! From new evolutions to…Pokemon that look like Pokemon of old. We want to make sure that you see them all!
Is that…Diglett?
This new Pokemon was first reveal in a video that had a group of eager researchers watching a live stream from the Paldea region. In that video was a Pokemon that look like an old friend, Diglett.
The researchers spent some time trying to figure out this new Pokemon. Was this a Regional Variant? A brand new Pokemon all together? In the end we found out it was a brand new Pokemon named Wigett!
Wigett
Category: Garden Eel Pokémon
Type: Water
Height: 3’11” (1.2 m)
Weight: 4 lbs. (1.8 kg)
Ability: Gooey / Rattled
Boasting an exceptional sense of smell, Wiglett is able to pick up scents from over 60 feet away. It has a skittish disposition and is constantly cautious of its surroundings. When it notices the scent of other Pokémon, Wiglett burrows into the sand to conceal itself.
Wiglett pokes a part of its body out of the sand to feed in the ocean. It’s still unclear what the rest of its body hidden in the sand is like or how long it might be. It’s said that Wiglett’s resemblance to Diglett might be a mere coincidence—a result of its adaptation to its environment.
Wiglett is a brand new Pokemon that looks to have branched off from Diglett a long time ago. Is there any relationship between the two? Who knows. What we do know is that we hope Wiglett evolves into Wigtrio and become the three headed friend we all wanted.
Below is a video feature Wiglett.
Wait! Girafarig is…EVOLVING!
Girafarig. An old favorite seem to have an evolution in the Paldea region. Finally this fan favorite Pokemon will get an evolution and see some more love.
Farigiraf
Category: Long Neck Pokémon
Type: Normal/Psychic
Height: 10’6″ (3.2 m)
Weight: 352.7 lbs. (160 kg)
Ability: Cud Chew / Armor Tail
As a result of its Evolution, the head of its main body and the head from its tail have become one. Both of Farigiraf’s brains are connected through thick nerves, increasing its psychic energy, and it can emit psychic waves from the antennae on its head. Farigiraf is always mindful of its surroundings, and while it can detect danger in an instant, there are times when its body cannot react as fast as its two brains can think.
Farigiraf’s Ability, Cud Chew, is a new Ability appearing for the first time in these titles. When a Pokémon with Cud Chew eats a Berry, it will eat it one more time at the end of the next turn. Armor Tail is another new Ability appearing for the first time in these titles. It makes opposing Pokémon unable to use priority moves.
Farigiraf brings a lot to the table. One of the things it brings are two abilities! Cud Chew allows Farigiraf use it’s berry twice! Meanwhile, Armor Tail is an ability that prevents the use of priority moves such as Quick Attack.
Below is the video revealing Farigiraf.
