Pokémon Scarlet & Violet’s Minimap Has Confirmed More Leaked Pokémon

The minimap shows a pair of mice-like Pokémon, a rocklike mushroom that resembles something from the Super Mario Bros. series, and a green bird Pokémon. This might sound like it’s meant to be four Pokémon, but the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet leaks have mentioned that there is a mouse duo Pokémon, which evolves into a family of mice in a similar concept to Kangaskhan and even has one of Pokémon’s best Abilities in the game, in the form of Parental Bond. The mushroom design, according to previous leaks, is a dual-type Pokémon with Grass as one of its types. The bird design is a Pokémon inspired by a parakeet, which is a Normal/Flying-type Pokémon with multiple evolutions – again, according to leaks.

The new Pokémon Scarlet and Violet trailer confirmed a number of leaks regarding the game, with the appearance of the Girafarig evolution and picnics giving free Pokémon Eggs now being official. The only question now is whether the developers are planning on revealing everything beforehand (as they did with Pokémon Sun and Moon) or whether there will still be secrets for the players to uncover on their own.
