Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly - the three new starter Pok茅mon

The Pok茅mon Scarlet and Pok茅mon Violet games, the newest chapters in the Pok茅mon series, are coming to Nintendo Switch later this year.

There were also a few other announcements.

What do we know about Pok茅mon Scarlet and Pok茅mon Violet?

Pok茅mon Scarlet and Pok茅mon Violet games promise to be "an open-world adventure". The trailer gives a glimpse of landscapes and the announcement on the website says "You'll be able to see the Pok茅mon of this region in the skies, in the seas, in the forests, on the streets鈥攁ll over!"

Three new Generation 9 Pok茅mon have also been introduced - Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly.

Sprigatito is described as a capricious, attention-seeking Grass Cat Pok茅mon. Fuecoco, a laid-back Fire Croc Pok茅mon that does things at its own pace. And earnest and tidy Duckling Pok茅mon, Quaxly, is the third pok茅mon the trainer can choose.
