New Pokemon appears in Pokemon Horizons anime

Original (4/14): An unknown Pokemon just made its debut during the newest anime for the series that has some fans wondering if it has something to do with Terapagos.

The first episode of Pokemon Horizons just aired in Japan. Ash’s journey has drawn to a close, and the show is now featuring dual protagonists Liko, whose partner is Sprigatito, along with Roy. However, the talk of the town is the Pokemon featured above.

Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet have new DLC starting this year. Part 2: The Indigo Disk will feature Terapagos, who we’ve yet to really hear about. That being said, some fans are wondering if the new Pokemon that’s been teased is a young version of the creature, a new form, or a pre-evolution.

Terapagos won’t be the only new Pokemon in the DLC. Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti are also appearing in Part 1: The Teal Mask – you can learn a bit about them here.

Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet are out on Switch. The Teal Mask DLC launches this fall, followed by The Indigo Disk after that. Meanwhile, the Pokemon Horizons anime is now airing in Japan, but its western debut will be happening at a later date on Netflix.
