New Legendary Pokémon from Scarlet and Violet reportedly leaked

As the release of Scarlet and Violet approaches, more and more information is surfacing, starting with the Pokémon that will be featured in these new releases.

At Pokémon Presents on August 3, The Pokemon Company lifted the veil on the franchise’s upcoming installments, giving trainers a glimpse of what’s in store. Since the trailer was released, all anyone has been talking about is Pokémon Scarlet and Purple and the multiple new features that were introduced.

While most trainers were excited about the introduction of the Paldea region as well as the new gameplay features introduced, it was by far the announcement of new Pokémon such as Koraidon and Miraidon that caught their attention.

Many Pokémon have already been confirmed, but it looks like the Pokémon community has more surprises in store.

4 new legendary Pokémon in Scarlet and Purple?

According to multiple leaks, there could be 4 more Legendary Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet, related to Chinese mythology.

Youtuber RuffledRowlit dug into the connection to Chinese mythology by claiming that the game would feature “4 evil creatures” legendary, but not necessarily all of them would be Dragon Type.

These Pokémon would be the following:

• Hundun, Chaos
• Taowu, Ignorance
• Taotie, Gluttony
• Qionqi, Sneakiness.

The youtuber is adamant about the connection to Chinese mythology, and the concept that links them. While he made it clear that this was pure speculation, many netizens have come forward arguing that it’s entirely possible that Pokémon Scarlet & Purple has 4 legendary dragons that share a similar concept.

Of course, until there is official information to support this, these theories should be taken with a grain of salt.
