Pokemon Shield | Galarian Ponyta

After being teased on the Pokemon Glimwood Tangle Livestream last week, The Pokemon Company has revealed that Pony will have a Galarian form exclusively on Pokemon Shield. Galarian Ponyta will be a psychic type and a new ability called Pastel Veil granting poison immunity & poison cure to allies.

Galarian Ponyta have been found in a certain forest of the Galar region since ancient times. It is said that they were exposed to the overflowing life energy of the forest over many generations, and this is why their appearance became unique in this region.

Galarian Ponyta can absorb the life energy of the surrounding atmosphere and store it in its mane. It seems that Ponyta’s mane will become more colorful, and even emit a sparkling glow, if there is a lot of energy around.

Galarian Ponyta’s Ability, Pastel Veil, is a new Ability introduced in these titles. This Ability prevents the Pokémon and its allies from becoming poisoned! It can even cure the poisoned status condition of its allies when this Pokémon enters the battlefield!

Pokemon Sword | Sirfetch’d

The Pokemon Company has just revealed the first exclusive Pokemon coming to Pokemon Sword which is Sirfetch’d, the evolution of Farfetch’d exclusive to the Galar region.

The Farfetch’d of the Galar region can evolve into Sirfetch’d after experiencing many battles. They are calm and collected, and they make a point of always battling fairly. They are so noble in battle that they are often chosen as a motif for paintings. Of particular note is a painting—famous in the Galar region—that depicts a duel between a Sirfetch’d and an Escavalier.

In battle, Sirfetch’d uses the sharp stalk of its leek as a lance and the thick leaves as a shield. It maintains this leek over the span of many years and treasures it more than anything. When its leek finally withers, Sirfetch’d will leave the battlefield and retire from battling entirely.
