A few hours ago, The Pokemon Company released a glitched preview for a new Pokemon debuting in Pokemon Sword And Shield. Naturally, Pokemon fans quickly began trying to decipher what this new Pokemon could be, with one interesting theory gaining immense traction in that time.

The theory is that this mystery Pokemon is in fact a Galarian form or evolution of the Gen 1 Pokemon Farfetch’d. The main reasons behind this being the ease with which Farfetch’d can be integrated into the Glitched Pokemon’s redacted description, as well as it having been mentioned in the infamous May 2019 Leak.

“Only Farfetch’d that have survived many battles can attain this form. When this Pokemon’s leek withers, it will retire from combat.”

“Some pokemon, like Farfechtd, will get regional evolutions, like Sirfechtd”

Fans have also started drawing what they think this Pokemon would look like un-glitched, most of them taking on the Farfetch’d concept:

My interpretation of the new Pokemon teaser. Maybe Galarian Farfetch’d? Sirfetch’d?
