The closing ceremony of the Pok\u00e9mon World Championship was packed full of new information about Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet & Violet, the most notable reveal being the identity of a brand new ‘mon, Cyclizar, who will be landing in the Pok\u00e9dex on November 18th.<\/p>\n

This Dragon\/Normal type Pok\u00e9mon will possess a new battle move, Shed Tail, where it can create a substitute and then swap places with a party Pok\u00e9mon in waiting. However, it is not this cool new ability that has captured the attention of fans on Twitter, but Cyclizar’s strangely recognisable appearance.<\/p>\n

As pointed out by our friends over at Eurogamer, the particular point of interest is the Pok\u00e9mon’s motorbike-like features, many of which seem to be similar to those on Scarlet & Violet’s legendaries, Koraidon and Miraidon.<\/p>\n

Now, this could<\/em> be a complete coincidence; as anyone who loyally played ‘Who’s That Pok\u00e9mon?’ each week in their childhood will tell you, many Pok\u00e9mon share similar features and sometimes even full silhouettes (yeah, we’re looking at you Clefairy). But there is every chance that Cyclizar’s “legendary” appearance could be hinting at a larger evolutionary theory for Scarlet & Violet’s story \u2014 do we have a legendary’s pre- or even a post-evolution state on our hands?<\/p>\n

Fans were quick to Twitter with their theories about the series’ newest Pok\u00e9mon, many of which circulate around the idea of \u200b\u200bCyclizar’s appearance coming from a different timeline to the box art legendaries, who seem to represent the past (Koraidon) and the future (Miraidon) ) respectively.<\/p>\n
