According to the company, “this unknown Pokemon is reminiscent of the Legendary Pokemon Terapagos, but its name and true nature are shrouded in mystery.” Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet are available now for Nintendo Switch.
The full details:
This unknown Pokemon is reminiscent of the Legendary Pokemon Terapagos, but its name and true nature are shrouded in mystery. It is small in stature and not particularly strong, but when push comes to shove, it can crystallize the energy in its body to form a protective shield. Apparently, it can also assume a dormant state when it feels that its life is in danger by pulling its head, limbs, and tail into its shell and making itself look like a jewel.
In “The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero,” players will leave the Paldea region and be able to delve deeper into the world of Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet.
