These are Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s new legendary Pokémon: Koraidon and Miraidon

Thanks to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s box art reveal at the end of the game’s new trailer, which debuted on Wednesday, Pokémon fans got a peek at the next generation’s legendary Pokémon.

The two vaguely serpentine Pokémon, Koraidon and Miraidon, have snake-like faces but also have arms and legs. Well, Koraidon has legs — Miraidon has two rocket-fueled engines that appear to keep it floating.

In Pokémon Sword and Shield, the legendary Pokémon are representative of the games’ themes — in the eighth-generation games, Zacian held a sword for Sword, and Zamazenta had a shield in Shield. The first similarity with these two new legendary Pokémon is within their color. One is scarlet, and the other is violet.

These are just a few of the new Pokémon that’ll enter the franchise with Pokémon Scarlet and Violet — previously, The Pokémon Company shared information about the three new starters, Sprigatito, a grass-type cat; Fuecoco, a cute little fire croc; and Quaxly, a water-type duck wearing a hat.

Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly were first shown off in February during a Pokémon Presents broadcast for Pokémon Day. During that event, The Pokémon Company described the ninth-generation Pokémon game as an open-world game with “no borders” between towns and wilderness, with Pokémon appearing “in the skies, in the sea, and on the streets.”
