Pokemon Horizons Debut Teases New Pokemon From Upcoming DLC!
The day has finally come, and what a day it is! In Japan, the two-part premiere of Pokemon Horizons debuted, and fans are already talking about some of the things shown in it. The premiere highlighted one of the two new main characters, Liko, and the beginning of her Pokemon journey. The reason the premiere was so anticipated was that many were wondering if it would be able to “hold in the fans,” if you will, due to how Ash Ketchum had been the lead in the anime for 25+ years. Well, while we can’t say whether it will or not, we will say they threw a curve ball, just like in the original!
If you recall, in the first episode of the anime with Ash, he and Pikachu survived a terrifying experience with some Spearow only to meet the Pokemon we would later find out was Ho-oh—a tease of many things to come.
As for Liko, she had that kind of moment too. It was previously noted that one of Liko’s “traits” was that she had a mysterious crystal given to her by her grandmother. In the two-part premiere, Liko’s crystal “activates,” and when it does, a Pokemon appears before her. That Pokemon appears to be tied to Terapagos, a Pokemon we’ll meet in the upcoming DLC for Gen 9 via “The Indigo Disk.” There is some question about whether it’s a pre-evolved form of the legendary Pokemon or some kind of “depowered form” like we’ve seen with other Legendary Pokemon like Zygarde. But either way, it’s a tease of what’s to come.
