In other news- Japanese mythology is hilarious.

Speaking of which, with so much ocean to fill, I'm sure we'll be getting a few new aquatic pokemon that aren't Water-type.

Maybe even Grass. This is a banana costasiella, native to... you can guess where.

Costasiella can photosynthesize like a plant.

Imagine a single banana-shaped Shellos evolving into a bunch-of-bananas-shaped Gastrodon?

Or it could be Bananamushi. 🤔 Possibly Bug-type.

Oh dear... maybe not a South Sea Shellos.

Maybe a lookalike, Yellos / Bananakushi. 😂

Based on bananas / banana slug / banana nudibranch (native to SEA).

Possible new pokemon/forms appearing in games before their Generation again is so hype. 🎉

South Sea Shellos?

So that's possibly two new Gen 10 forms teased in Pokopia.

I think there's a /chance/ that Peakychu could also make it to mainline, but only because she's a Pikachu.

I know it's a silly little thing to appreciate but it's so easy for them to cop out on that sort of thing, it's nice to see when they put in the effort.

I like that she has a full climbing animation and doesn't just hop the ledge.

Dumb pokemon, you put the map upside-down!

Is it supposed to say CD on it? Like C'd? Seed? I think it's Seed.

Alright, this painting feels like a teaser at this point.

Is it really about Sunflora, or is it pointing at Sunkern, the Seed Pokemon?

💃
🪦 Electric/Normal! No Sound type!

The Lumineon painting from Nemona's house is in Pokopia!

You know what this means? The game has Gen 10 teasers in it! Keep your eyes peeled!

Chrome, your built-in browser translation feature has me feeling a little concerned.

This amuses me. Color/pose twinsies.

Jump in the line~ 🎶

He should really change his name to PKMNfake, it'd be more accurate.

This trash muffin back to doing his usual shit again.

The fur isn't even right. Get that AI garbage out of here.

Translation for anyone who needs it.

They really need to revive this one. 🙏

And these huts here actually look just as enterable as the homes in Jubilife Village. In fact, them being small and identical probably makes it more likely that we'll be able to go inside them since they can just reuse interiors.

This apparently open air hotel room is a bit concerning in regards to indoor exploration, but I still feel hopeful?

BOTW has a lot of seamless indoor/outdoor exploration, so the open set design here isn't necessarily a sign that they want to keep us from going in buildings.

Finally got a shot of the rest of this sign.

...whatever that says. 🤷‍♀️

Justice for the counterparts-
Mega Victreebel vs. [insert gimmick name here] Vileplume in Pokemon Champions.

Maybe we can finally get something for Slowking too?

New Vileplume form???

Rafflesia and titan arum are both carrion flowers from Indonesia. If the new gimmick comes with new forms, then it would totally make sense for Vileplume to turn into a bigger stinky plant.

Alright, if it's Electric/Normal then its existence is acceptable. Get Sound type out of here. 🚫🎵

Which if we can assume any sort of consistency, would make this sign read...

M _ E _ _ E

...that doesn't really fill in much. 🥲

And it's not safe to assume any consistency even within the same region anyway, so it's completely no help here. Pokemon text is the worst. 🤣

At least this one seems fairly easy- it probably just says "WELCOME" and is based on this WELCOME TO BATAM sign in Indonesia.

Ohey, more text spotted!
