Every New Pokemon in Pokemon Legends Arceus

Please let there be a side mission to recover Palkia’s arms

I think Dialga and Palkia have to be the first designs I've looked at and thought, "wtf am I looking at". Even the Ultra Beasts aren't that weird.

I love how Basculin is just one entity now and not blue or red. It makes sense cuz it’s back in time before Basculin probably reached Unova and evolved to be separate colors. So it’s just one variant while Basculegion is the blue/red fish.

I just realized the forces of nature are based off of the four guardian animals of Japan. There is: The scarlet bird suzaku: tornadus The white tiger byakko: landorus The blue dragon seryu: thunderous And finally the black tortoise genbu: the new force of nature. The reason she has a snake is because genbu is normally depicted with a snake wrapped around or a snake like neck.

“Mom can we have Palkia” “We already have Palkia at home” Palkia at home: *Hisuian Palkia*

Congratulations to Typhlosion, Samurott, and Decidueye for being the first ever starters to receive a regional variant in the pokemon franchise!

Regular Goodra line is based on slugs; Hisuian Goodra gets a shell instead. Avalugg is based on the core part of a glacier; Hisuian Avalugg is based on the end moraine (the very last part of the glacier tongue) instead. Thats why its ice on top, rock at the bottom, with those two "sheets" of ice hanging down its face. If you compare images of end moraines with Hisuian Avalugg, you cant unsee the similarities.

I know typhlosion looks a bit weird, but I’ve seen the idle animations with the flames and it honestly looks cool as hell. (They always have flames, the leaked models just don’t for some reason.)

So the goomy line went from being a slug to being a snail, while decidueye, a pokemon based on a extinct bird, is no longer ghost type in a game based on the past. I really like what they did here

I’m going to wait to watch this but I just wanted to say that the way you handled the thumbnail compared to other KZheadrs is amazing. Doesn’t spoil anything and tells there are spoilers thank you for not putting spoilers in the actual thumbnail itself.

I saw an observation of the new dialga and palkia forms on a different video: They seem to both remove the bodypart that is needed for their signature moves (mouth for roar of time and arms for spacial rend) so it could be a form of punishment from arceus Edit: after seeing gameplay it seems dialga still has its mouth however palkia just doesn't have any arms so get recked you pink fu-

Just looked at Ursaluna again and realized that Ursaluna’s design might represent the night sky. The circle on his forehead is the Moon (full moon actually) along with his eyebrows being the clouds. This makes me appreciate Ursaluna even more.

This is crazy. Apparently there are new weather conditions, 25 new crazy op moves, and two new status conditions that boost up ice type Pokémon. Also, Arceus and Giratina may have new forms that may get a day one patch, based off of new handheld items, and a new plate for Arceus. Edit: You can now swap out pokemon move set at anytime. You don't need heart scales to remember moves anymore

Palkia would’ve actually looked really cool if it kept its arms. Would’ve looked kinda like a Lynel from Zelda

I hope a game in the Modern Era of the timeline has these forms available as like a "fossil revival" where you use a fossil and combine it with a descendant to obtain their Ancient Form. You can obtain the originals through rifts too, so instead the rift concept can be used too.

I honestly like the new forms for the two legendaries of Diamond and Pearl, however why did Palkia lose it’s arms, and Dialga just vibes like: ‘this is fine.’

To be honest i like seeing the new pokemon before release because it helps me decide which starter to pick and how to make my team. I'm mainly avoiding story spoilers.

After seeing what they did with dialga and palkia, I'm really scared for my boy giratina. I like typhlosion though

A thought I had with the forces of nature is that their altered forms remind me of the four beasts or whatever they’re called. Tornadus is the vermillion bird, Thunderus is the azure dragon, Landerus is the white tiger, and the new one is the black tortoise. As for what the new one’s weather I have no clue what it could be, maybe it cancels out the other weather effects.

I am looking forward to finding this out myself, in a week when I buy the game, but I'm sure they'll be a bunch of amazing videos here for this game as always Austin John, looking forward to them

I assume the GRASS-FIGHTING type increase is due to the setting of the game, in this, Pokemon are perceived as extemely dangerous creatures that WILL kill you. Whereas past games, sure they were dangerous, but many often had a soft side and were recognized similar to a pet or playmate.

I usually don’t mind these “spoilers,” because unless they’re revealing plot details I don’t see them as spoilers to begin with, but dear lord… Those new legendaries TRAUMATIZED me!!!!

Decidueye looks amazing. I adore the original, but i honestly might love this new form even more. The Ronin aesthetic is so cool

Hey Austin John, thanks for the awesome videos and I also got an early preorder from a small deliverer. However I can recommend to the right in the first area an follow the shore , further passing the mini boss Snorlax until you reach the end of the beach. There you can easily catch some stronger pokemon to make a walkthrough faster. :D If wanted I can provide with a picture of the explored first map. Won’t spoil anything more because PLA is a breathtaking game played with good headphones!

I’m intrigued to see the in-game reason for the Arceus fusion with Dialga/Palkia. They both look so weird, almost TOO weird, and that brings me to think it’s some kind of fusion gone wrong situation. I simply can’t imagine someone made those designs and went “yup, that looks normal.” So that brings me to think there’s a reason why they look f’ed up. I may be wrong, so we’ll see! I’m still very excited for this game.

That new force of nature pokemon makes me think now they have a four beasts theme with their therian forms. Tornadus is the Vermillion Bird, Thunderus is the Azure Dragon, Landorus is the White Tiger, and that new one is the Black Tortoise, it even comes with what looks like snake wrapped around it just like the common depiction of it.

Congrats to every Pokémon getting these new forms! I'm so exciting to play this game!

Awesome video!! I decided to rank all the Pokémon you shared on my channel, looking forward to playing with some of the Hisuan forms!

There was a reddit post speculating that Dialga and Palkia look that way to essentially restrict them from using their signature moves, "Roar of Time" (Dialga controlling time with its voice) and "Spacial Rend" (Palkia bending space with its arms). It doesn't make the designs any less weird than they are, but if that hypothesis is correct, then at least it makes sense in a way.

I love how soft Typhlosion looks. Apparently it looks way better when it’s in motion ig. It’s confirmed it has its flames in battle.

Can I just say, Austin, your videos are chill but at the same time entertaining. I found out about you during Sword & Shield for some tips but I've been noticing the style of your videos is very calm, yet you can let out your opinion and not appear too biased or toxic, which is such a breath of fresh air and what sets you apart from other Pokétubers.

Liligant looks like a female ninja, and I kinda like the new Decidueye, makes him look like a feudal archer/monk

My take of the new Dialga/Palkia forms is that they’re the premature forms before the time/space duos became whole. Idk they both look drastically incomplete to me 🤷🏾‍♂️

Bro dialga looks like the one episode were squidward gets the clarinet stuck in his throat

I'm really liking Rowletts third form! It reminds me of this game from my childhood, the game Kameo. Reminds me of the character pummelweed:)

I can’t wait to watch your guides for PLA! Looking at the game and what we know, I know for a fact I’m gonna need some assistance. Your video about cooking poffins for bdsp helped me. I could finally make poffins that weren’t foul.

I appreciate you pointing out to people before they rush to judge Typhlosion about how it will look different when animated and emanating flame or spirit or whatever. Worth remembering people don’t like normal Typhlosion’s looks without the flame blasting nearly as much, so it stands to reason the same is true with this form as well. Keen to see it strutting its stuff! In general a lot of cool designs and typings in the list, ready to put them to the test 😄

Hisuian Zoroark is by far my favorite. Love the typing, design, lore, and definitely the shiny!

Seeing how short the feathers on decidueye's wings are, I'm gonna go ahead and say that it's gonna be flightless and I'm asuming the new force of nature will be female only, in contrast with the other three being always male... I have a hard time believing that desing will be male only too

I actually like Hisuian Typhlosion. The regular one is better, but the Hisuian Form reminds me of Makoto Yuki from Persona 3 (or at least it gives me strong Persona 3 Vibes). Also I'm surprised that they gave Sneasel a new evolution and gave Avalugg a new form (the latter of which is one I always forget about).

Dialga looks like it’s choking on something. XD Some of these designs are admittedly hit or miss with me but I think the starters look pretty slick. I’m going with Typhlosion since I love using it in HGSS.

So long as there aren't any plot spoilers, I don't really mind spoiling myself on new Pokemon as I like to plan my team's out before playing the game (exploring the world and finding the potential new Pokemon for my team has never been my thing). Between the 3 starters, Hisuian Samurott is easily my favourite, so much so that I actually like this new design over its original (garunteed team member already, alongside Hisuian Zoroark). I like the new Typhlosian and Decidueye as well, but I still much prefer their original forms over their new designs (especially Typhlosian). Hisuian Liligant is another favorite design I like, it also helps that Liligant is also one of my favorite grass types and my second favorite Unova Mon (these new Hisuian forms of Unova Pokemon are really winning me over right now). I might have Liligant on the team depending on how polished Decidueye looks in game compared to this video. If I don't find any other interesting fire types or its impossible to get og Typhlosian in the game, I'll consider having Hisuian Typhlosian on my team. The other Hisuian Pokemon range from interesting to meh. The new fusions are also...interesting...where did his arms go?

Hisuian Electrode: "Prepare to meet Mr. Angry Eyes!" _[Shoots at the target by angrily staring at them.]_

I do love how that voltorb and electrode are completely different to the kantonian counter parts, as kanto voltorb is very angry where as hisuian voltorb is very happy, kantonian electrode looks very happy compared to hisuian electrode who looks very angry

I think the new Force of Nature is bringing a new mythological background into that entire group. Specifically, I think all four of them now represent the Four Symbols of the Chinese Constelation. Tornadus being Zhu Que or Suzaku, a bird, Thundurus being Qing Long or Seiryu, an azure dragon, Landorus being Bai Hu or Byakko, a tiger, and the new member being Xuan Wu or Genbu, a tortoise entwined with a snake (First name for all is the Chinese name, second is the Japanese name). If this is the case, we might expect to find them in separate compass directions on the map, Tornadus to the South, Thundurus to the East, Landorus to the West, and the new one to the North. Pretty exciting.

Decidueye reminded me of Ryuzo from Ghost of Tsushima. I really liked the autumn colors! But now I'm also in love with the new Typhlosion. It looks so adorable!

I’m trying to remember what life was like a few seconds ago, before I saw the new force of nature, dialga and palkia, back when the world made sense...

This is very informative video. I can't wait to play it next week 🔥

I saw Hisuian Decidueye and was disappointed bc it’s wings and arms looked so different. However in combat it looks so dope. Austin was right the arms are folded and when it attacks it still follow the same archer style. So the wings are there just folded now he just looks cooler and more menacing.

I like the ghost>dark>fighting typing for the starters w/ fire

Dude… Palkia being my first and favorite Legendary Pokémon I ever caught and seeing that is just. I can’t even put it into words

14:17 My immediate thought was that it kind of looks like a Yu-Gi-Oh fusion monster. Like, the Blue-Eyes Ultimate/Mammoth Graveyard thing in Duelist Kingdom

Typhlosion looks like he lost all of his hope and will to live to the point where he died and became a ghost type and I love it But I'm still going to choose Oshawott

They should have made a form for dunsparce since it's dex entry says it used to have wings it used to fly around in ancient times

I’m ready to see you pump out an outrageous amount of content

Omg I LOVE the Quailfish evolution!!💜💜💜 growing up I was a corsola and quailfish main. now they’re finally giving them evolutions 😭💕

Damn, looks like Typhlosion was taking too much time with the ‘grass’ type Pokémon.

When I first heard about the type combination for Decidueye. I was afraid it would be the worst looking one. But after seeing this design, it's easily my favorite of the three Hisuian form starters.

I’ve played the game already it’s really good something to really look forward too. Haven’t had this much fun since HG/SS

Watching this after beating the game, and seeing your initial reactions to these is great 😂😂😂

I like how Kantonian Voltorb goes from angry to happy when it evolves to Electrode while Hisuian Voltorb goes from happy to angry.

Glad to see goomy is unchanged proving that its perfection in pokemon form 😌

Yknow what Austin you a pretty cool guy. And your community looks way more open minded and nicer about this game compared to some Poketubers. I think I'll around and sub. Great video too. I'm pretty excited about this game regardless of the different opinions of others, I'll be the jugde of weither this game is good or bad in my taste.

i was gonna watch this, then i realized, how long has it been since i played a game blindly and was surprised, way to long.... so ill wait for friday, for a fresh experiance :D ty for the vid tho

I love that the goomy line goes from slugs to more like snails.

Hisuian Decidueye is by far my favorite evolution out of the three regional starters. I really really hope Hisuian Typhlosion keeps the flames on its back. I actually like this approach with using previous-gen starters and giving them regional evolutions.

Ugh! I'm so excited to play this! I cant wait to play with the new Sneasel, my favorite Pokemon!

I was just listening and not watching the first time, I've never hit the replay so fast!

I'm glad they're giving the johto starters some love., even if it's only Cyndaquil. While every other starter gets cool stuff, johto is stuck with nothing. I think Typhlosion will look cooler with the flames.

I LOVE the new Goodra, I love snails and Steel types, this one will be on my team for sure

I think that the new pokemon as well the ones being redesigned look really awesome, its just neat to me as well very exciting at the same time.

The last two are just like how Kyurem fuses with either Reshiram or Zekrom. Some third-party will forcibly fuse Arceus together with either Dialga or Palkia.

I really hope they continue this series of going back to previous regions and exploring there history cause gen 5 and 6 both have cool stories they could go back to (the 2 kings think in bw and the war in xy) I also hope they continue this series just to have more regional variant starters or just do that’s in the main game. I also wonder if these regional forms will return outside of these games ever or will they be locked to these games like megas kinda(I mean like how there are forms that we will never see again from those games)

4:59 all they had too do is stand him back up and give him back his shell swords. I was hoping for finally a samoruott that I actually wanted too evolved my dewot into

Sneasler looks like it was from Biomutant. And Hisuian Decidueye is like a kappa from the woods, I love it.

I'ma definitely picking rowlet for my starter I was freaking out when I first saw this honestly I love how he gives you a double warning so considerent

For those of you wondering here are the names and typings of the Pokemon-- Hisuian Growlithe: Fire/Rock Hisuian Arcanine: Fire/Rock Hisuian Voltorb: Grass/Electric Hisuian Electrode: Grass/Electric Hisuian Typhlosion: Fire/Ghost Hisuian Qwilfish: Dark/Poison Hisuian Sneasel: Poison/Fighting Hisuian Samurott: Water/Dark Hisuian Lilligant: Grass/Fighting White-Striped Basculin: Water Hisuian Zorua: Normal/Ghost Hisuian Zoroark: Normal/Ghost Hisuian Braviary: Psychic/Flying Hisuian Avalugg: Ice/Rock Hisuian Sliggoo: Dragon/Steel Hisuian Goodra: Dragon/Steel Hisuian Decidueye: Grass/Fighting Kleavor: Bug/Rock (Evolves from Scyther) Wyrdeer: Normal/Psychic (Evolves from Stantler) Sneasler: Poison/Fighting (Evolves from H-Sneasel) Overqwil: Dark/Poison (Evolves from H-Qwilfish) Ursaluna: Normal/Ground (Evolves from Ursaring) Basculegion: Water/Ghost (Evolves from White-Striped Basculin) Enamorus: Fairy/Flying (New Genie)

The regional variants for the starter final forms went in the exact opposite as how I like the originals. Samurott looks menacing, Typhlosion looks chill, and Decidueye is ... different

I like the Palkia in a "watching a train wreck in slow motion" kind of way ! XD

Dialga just became one of those cartoon characters that has something stuck on its throat and Palkia into a pink handless centaur.

ABOUT THE NEW LEGENDARY FORMS: Lord Dialga has its throat blocked so it can't use Roar of Time and Lord Palkia doesn't have arms so it can't use Special Rend! :)

Wow, these look a lot like fan-made Pokémon OCs you'd see on Deviantart back in the day.

This is the only spoiler video I’m allowing myself (just the new forms) so I know what is what (bc I a somewhat new player). The thumbnail is awesome and isn’t spoiler filled like some of the other ones I’ve seen.

I have a question, where did you get your majoras mask? I wanna buy it and I can’t find one that looks as good as yours.

I actually really like how the basic expressions of hisuian voltorb and electrode are switched from their normal versions.

I’m glad to see a spoiler/leak video that doesn’t give plot spoilers and just the dex

stoked to play this friday

This video still exists? Amazing.

So, the forces of nature I think are designed around the 4 guardians of Kyoto. Genbu the Tortoise with a snake is the new one. Then Phoenix, Tiger, and Dragon looking ones. I kinda like it.

I have no clue what they did to Palkia. If they’re giving an option of what Pokémon to choose, I’m choosing Dialga because it looks op. And honestly I was picking cyndaquil as my starter but the way they made the final evolution brought my hopes down. Samurott and Decidueye look incredible so I’m choosing one of those two.

I read somewhere that typhlosion's flames will appear when in battle but not out of it- I can't remember exactly what it said but it was that he does have flames just only in battle :)

I havnt been keeping up with the new game news, where did you get these?

Just noticed with the fourth force of nature added the therian forms sort of reminds me of the four beast in mythology the dragon, phoenix, tiger and tortoise each representing a direction

I saw a different image of Typhlosion where it had purple flames and it made the design look a million times better, I’m really excited to pick fire starter this time around

Wow the legendary . Make sense this come out after Diamond and pearl remake. Woww

The new arcanine form really gives off the legendary vibe. Makes you realize/understand why in the gen 1 days people would call it a legendary Pokémon.

I'm sure the designs will grow on me, but so far I only like about a 3rd of them and that 3rd has a lot of type overlap. Team building might be a challenge

I’m excited to see what the legendaries look like animated. I think once I see them move, the designs will click with me a lot more.

Holy cow I love these Pokémon

All I can say IMO, is that I only have 14 hours in and I'm loving it.
