Sword And Shield's 'Glitched' Pokémon Will Be Revealed Tomorrow

A steadfast fighting type?

It's obviously Hitmongandhi.

Kinda looks like a rabbit.

That green, pixellated part looks suspiciously pistol-shaped. Is this the fated Gun Pokemon to finally round off our legendary trio?

@Simon_Fitzgerald That seems a bit far-fetched... I'll let myself out.

Really not sold on this new version. Still disappointed there hasn't been a shake up and new style. Pokemon games rarely drop in price so will await reviews and my friends opinions.

I managed to resist pokemon lets go and from all accounts haven't missed much.

The return of Missingno

Clever. I'd love it if it were a Missingno reference!

Kinda looks like a weird Cubone to me. . .

MISSINGNOOOOOO!!! JEEEEJ! Aaaaah the feels!

What's 257.9lbs?

Do I have to live in:

a) Liberia,
b) Myanmar or
c) the United States of America

to understand the weight?

Other than the three countries mentioned above, the rest of the Earth people communicate using kg (kilograms, kilos) in case you didn't know.

Glitchmon if you catch it your file becomes corrupt ☠️

@Cosats 257.9 pounds is roughly 18 and a half stone if you need something closer to home.

That's exciting and a neat way to tease a new Pokémon

Edit: If I had to guess, maybe a new legendary Pokémon? The protruding portion has me guessing it's a lance based Pokémon to go along with the sword and shield based legendaries

@Simon_Fitzgerald oh it so is 👍

@Simon_Fitzgerald yes! he has a shield and a lance

I tried to squint my eyes to see something from the pixelate image and i guess that mysterious Pokemon kinda like Bomberman looking / Mandragora FF XII ?

Makes me think this may be Scorebunny’s intermediate stage...are we about to see the starters’ evolutions?

EDIT: I just realised this is pure fighting type rather than fire-fighting, which makes the above point moot. All the better - I’m getting tired of fire-fighting starters after Gens 3, 4 and 5 (thank you to those who corrected me, I had also included Gen 7 here mistakingly thinking Incineroar was also fire-fighting). Hopefully the devs will get a little more creative with the fire starter line this time.

It looks like it could be a Scorbunny evolution.

It's clearly Jigglypuff as viewed from above

Apparently, the room noise is the noise it makes when adding a new mon to the dex. As soon as I saw it I saw a leek and thought it would be the rumored farfetch’d eco, the dex text it shares hints to it by saying when it's...... breaks it retreats from battle. Not word for word but close enough

I'm going with the SirFetch'd evolution. I know it's a lot bigger than Farfetch'd but I think it's the very large leek lance and shield that it seems to wield.

Bunny with a Katana & a short knife

Missigno's return, please!

@Simon_Fitzgerald yeah I remember that leek 😂😂😂

An actual, official glitch themed pokemon would be cool.

Did someone say my name??
Oh... “glitching.”
Well... I’m here if you need me...

@ALazyUsername128 I’d like an official missingno Pokemon, fingers crossed!

@Xelha not even pancham?

@Simon_Fitzgerald even though potentially it looks true, why would a duck have a really high weight? It doesn’t look he wears armor or something am I missing?

Only [Farfetch’d] that have survived many battles can attain this [evolution?]. When this Pokémon's [stick/leek] [shatt]ers, it will retire from combat.

That’s the best guess for its Pokédex entry

Oooooh! Adlibs!

Only TRUE Egg McMuffins that have survived many battles can attain this Gundam look-alike. When this Pokémon's bloodsugar plummets, it will retire from combat.

It’s clearly a Chibi Bugs Bunny wearing a robe and holding a Duck Dodgers zap gun.

If you look at it sideways, it looks like a duck holding a sword or lance and shield

I got all excited for official missingno. Booo! 😣

It looks like a rabbit in blue pajamas holding a green gun.

First thought: looks like Goomy.

I i.. I saw that thing before..from sliver as a bug.. wow.

It's probably Sirfetched.

@StarViruZ Well, even Farfetch'd is 15kg/33lbs, way heavier than any existing duck in real life. Plus it looks like it wears some kind of armour. Something that covers its beak and head, almost like Cubone's skull.

So its a zombie rabbit with a sniper rifle, cool!

@Jezebel95 I had to login for the first time in like a year just to correct you, Gen 7 doesn't have a fire/fighting starter- Incineroar is in fact Fire/Dark.

I still agree we don't need another fire/fighting though.

@Danksparce Thanks for correcting me! I honestly had no idea...Litten the only starter from S/M I didn’t have, I just assumed Incineroar would be fire/fighting because of its appearance and its inclusion in Smash.

@Cosats sadly no one cares

I hate all these teases and announcements. No surprise element when actually getting the game.

@Andymad Unfortunately, that's the current nature of game marketing. The only option is to avoid the internet (almost impossible), or just avoid reading news related to Pokemon Sword/Shield.

@TJWorks no I know, you’re right. I don’t AVOID things that I see because I’m interested. But I think that’s what ruined Crafted World for me. I also shouldn’t have downloaded the demo lol. I’ve been at bay with Luigi’s mansion 3 and Zelda LA. So I’m excited to be surprised there!

It looks like a Cubone variant to me.

I reckon it's a Brexit.. You can tell by the mess😆

@Jezebel95 Incineroar is Fire/Dark.

I was kinda hoping the glitch itself was the Pokémon. Make Missingno canon!

@Patendo New Artstyle?

Boi, Sugimori has been the gold standard for Pokemon basically forever.

I'm assuming that it's a Kendo Pokemon, that looks vaguely like a pair of hakama and a kendo stick.

Be honest now, who else would actually be happy if they added missingno as an actual Pokemon?

I swear i Saw this on soul sliver when i glitch my umbreon..

announcements of announcements tick me off.

And show off the middle stage of the starters your are a little bit late Pokemon just do a huge info drop we need hype

@Danksparce I think fire /electric due to the sport and speed thing

My guesses are Galarian Farfetch'd or Fox McCloud with a green lightsaber.

@nukatha : I completely agree. I was actually scolded by a number of people here when I called that out recently.
