Another brand-new Pokemon might have been spotted in yesterday’s Pokemon Direct

Yesterday’s Pokemon Direct revealed quite a bit on new information on Pokemon Sword & Shield, including several new Pokemon. However, another new Pokemon might have been hiding in plain sight, Serebii reports. Head past the break for the information and two images of this possible new Pokemon.

The new Pokemon seems to be based on a squirrel or chipmunk of some kind. It’s quite hard to spot, but it can be seen in the crowd during the gym battle:

It seems that this squirrel-like Pokemon can also be seen in silhouette form on this kid’s sweater:

Obviously this isn’t 100% confirmed yet, but it does seem pretty likely that we’re looking at a new Pokemon here. Perhaps we’ll get an official reveal at E3 next week?
