Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Pokemon have all leaked online, with images from datamines or ROM screenshots revealing every new critter available.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s entire Pokedex was leaked following the release of the Gen 9 games’ ROM, and now there are pictures of every Paldean Pokemon available online. Due to the ROM’s recent inception, the leaks are relatively new, but there have been other reliable leaks in the last few days coming from players who received their copies of the game earlier than intended, and they showed Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s starter evolutions. These were mostly smartphone screenshots or photos, but now that the ROM is available, players can not only theoretically play the game on emulators, but also datamine everything about Gen 9.
Datamining began shortly after the ROM was released, and some of the leaked images of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Pokedex entries are based on game data. This includes Pokemon that may be more difficult to obtain or see in the early parts of the story, such as Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Legendary quartet or Gimmighoul’s evolution, which requires 999 coins to evolve and is therefore inherently impossible to obtain in a matter of hours.
The new leaks have revealed the entire Paldean Pokedex, and images of every evolution line are now available online. This includes Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Primeape evolution Annihilape, Bisharp’s evolution Kingambit, the three forms of Paldean Tauros, and the new pseudo-Legendary, Baxcalibur, an Ice and Dragon hybrid that resembles a spinosaurus. In addition, there are many intriguing designs in Gen 9, such as the Minecraft-like three-stage salt Pokemon or the three dog evolution lines, which include Fidough, Greavard, and a previously unseen pocket monster called Maschiff.
One of the most OP Scarlet and Violet Pokemon appears to be the Tinkaton line, which is Fairy/Steel in type combination and has three stages, possibly implying it has very high stats. Tinkaton’s signature move has also been leaked; it is a 160 base power attack with 100 accuracy, with the only drawback that it cannot be used twice in a row. Other popular evolution lines in Gen 9 include the Bug/Psychic beetle, the Fire and Grass pepper Pokemon Scovillain, and Dunsparce’s evolution, Dudunsparce.
The leaks also include all sixteen Paradox Pokemon in Generation 9, including Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Paradox Salamence and Paradox Tyranitar, which are arguably among the most anticipated by fans. All of the Titan Pokemon from the Path of Legends storyline have also been leaked, including Orthworm, a Steel-type earthworm, Bombirdier, a stork-like Flying/Dark critter, and Tatsugiri, a sushi Dragon/Water Pokemon.
Overall, the leaked Gen 9 Pokedex contains a plethora of new critters to look forward to, and while some, such as Wiglett, Wugtrio, Toedscool, and Toedscruel, are inspired by old Kantonian Pokemon, they are still unique takes on well-known evolution lines. Nonetheless, the three starters’ evolutions in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are likely to be the most divisive of th
