Is new Pokémon Cyclizar related to Scarlet and Violet’s legendaries? Here’s the theory
polygon.comThe Pokémon Company revealed a new Pokémon, Cyclizar, during the 2022 Pokémon World Championship event on Sunday — and it looks suspiciously close the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s legendary Pokémon Koraidon and Miraidon.
Cyclizar is a mount Pokémon that can be ridden like a bike: “This Pokémon has lived in many Paldean households since ancient times,” The Pokémon Company tweeted Sunday. “It can sprint at over 70 mph while carrying a human rider.” Like the previously revealed ride-on Pokémon Koraidon and Miraidon, Cyclizar’s got a big ol’ wheel-like appendage protruding from its chest.

But the big question is, how is Cyclizar related to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s legendary Pokémon? Is it related at all?

The big theory is that Koraidon and Miraidon are not evolutions of Cyclizar; instead, fans think they’re related to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s past and future themes. We know that the games’ two professors, Professor Sada and Professor Turo, study the past and future and are tied to Scarlet and Violet, respectively. Koraidon has that more ancient look, and is paired with Scarlet and Sada, while Miraidon is futuristic like Turo in Violet.
Fans think that Cyclizar is the “normal” everyday
