Alolan Raticate has been revealed as the latest regional variant to appear in Nintendo 3DS exclusives Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon.

The Mouse Pokémon is now Dark and Normal-type, and far chubbier than the design that we are used to seeing. This increased weight is thanks in part to the urban areas in which they dwell, where their diet has become higher in calories.
