Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Switch | 0 comments
The Pokemon Company kicked off Pokemon: Twilight Wings earlier this year. The animated mini-series is designed to give fans more insight into the Galar region and is based around Pokemon Sword/Shield.
In the latest episode, Early-Evening Waves, fans noticed that Pokemon like Dewgong appeared despite not being available in the actual games.

Pokemon: Twilight Wings still has three more episodes to air. Previous episodes can be found here, here, here, and here.
