Leading up to the release of Pokémon’s first sandbox adventure game, Pokémon Legends: Arceus, various leaks and rumors are already surrounding it. These leaks and rumors will only amp up and increase as we draw closer to the game’s January 28 launch to the Nintendo Switch. Here, we’re going to break down and share the more significant leaks surrounding the Arceus PokéDex, the starter Pokémon you can pick, the new Hisuian evolutions, and much more.

According to a handful of leakers, there will be a total of 17 Hisuian Pokémon forms appearing in the game. These forms will provide new looks and typing for several Pokémon. These spots include the starter form and its evolution. A handful of these forms have already been revealed, such as Hisuian Zorua and Zoroark, Hisuian Voltorb, Hisuian Growlithe, and a handful of others. Supposedly, leakers have hinted at a Hisuian Goodra form, along with the forms of the starter evolutions.

The three starter Pokémon you can choose to begin your game with include Rowlett, Cyndaquill, or Oshawott. While they will continue to have their standard starting forms, they supposedly will receive unique Hisuian forms. Cyndaquill’s Typhlosion will seemingly be a Fire and Ghost-type, Rowlett’s Decidueye will supposedly be a Grass and Fighting-type, and Oshawott’s Samurott final
