The Pokémon Company and Game Freak have released a new Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield trailer, revealing two new Pokémon that will appear in Galar region for the first time.
Those new Pokémon include Cramorant, the Flying and Water-type Gulp Pokémon, and Polteageist, a Ghost-type Black Tea Pokémon:
Cramorant
Category: Gulp Pokémon
Type: Flying/Water
Height: 2’7″
Weight: 39.7 lbs.
Ability: Gulp Missile
When it comes to food, Cramorant will try to swallow anything it can fit in its mouth. Sometimes it will swallow things that aren’t its intended prey, spitting them out once it realizes its mistake. A Cramorant can be forgetful, but it will never forget a Trainer it grows to trust. However, even Trainers will face fierce attacks from their Cramorant if they try to steal its food.
Cramorant’s Ability, Gulp Missile, is a new Ability that can be triggered during battles. After Cramorant uses Surf or Dive, it will return with a catch in its mouth. If it takes damage while in this state, Cramorant will retaliate by spitting out its catch at that opponent.
Polteageist
Category: Black Tea Pokémon
Type: Ghost
Height: 8″
Weight: .9 lbs.
Ability: Weak Armor
Polteageist’s body is made from black tea, and it’s said to have a very distinct aroma and flavor. It will only allow a Trainer it trusts to sample its tea, although drinking too much can lead to indigestion.
Many Polteageist make their homes inside hotels and restaurants where they disguise themselves and hide among the tableware. Because they can pour their power into leftover tea and create even more of their kind, they’re often treated as pests.
In Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield, you will choose between three starter Pokémon – Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble – before having the chance to explore the Galar region – with its idyllic countryside, contemporary cities, thick forests, and craggy, snow-covered mountains. Challenging the Gyms in the region, you will once again look to become Champion.
Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield will release exclusively for Nintendo Switch worldwide on November 15th.
