Earlier today, The Pokemon Company released a new trailer showcasing a new Pokemon which will debut in Pokemon Scarlet/Violet. Well, here are more details about it!

Cyclizar

• Type: Dragon/Normal
• Height: 5’3″
• Weight: 138.9 lbs.
• Ability: Shed Skin

A Pokémon That Lives with Humans

This Pokémon has lived in many households in the Paldea region since ancient times. It has a mild disposition, and people riding Cyclizar are a very common sight. It appears Cyclizar don’t mind being ridden because the warmth of a rider helps stave off the cold.​

A Body Optimized for Running​

Cyclizar can sprint at over 70 mph while carrying a human. Its extremely hard head and thick, lithe tail are not only useful for maintaining balance and absorbing shocks while sprinting—they also provide effective ways to attack during battles.​

A New Move: Shed Tail

The user creates a substitute for itself using its own HP before switching places with a party Pokémon in waiting.

Pokemon Scarlet And Violet launch on November 18th 2022 for Switch. We’ll report back as we hear more in the future!
