The official Play Pok\u00e9mon<\/a> Twitter account has reportedly shared some news ahead of schedule. It’s a video featuring the pink version<\/a> of Gastrodon in the recently released Switch titles, Pok\u00e9mon Sword and Shield<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In case you’re wondering what all the fuss is about, the only Gastrodon currently available in the new entries is a blue one. Here’s a screenshot of the now-deleted tweet including the pink-coloured sea slug Pok\u00e9mon (thanks, GameXplain<\/a>):<\/p>\n

A number of fans of the series are now convinced there’ll be an official reveal of this pink form in the upcoming Pok\u00e9mon Direct<\/a>, while some others are even speculating additional Pok\u00e9mon forms (including this one) will be added to the game.<\/p>\n

Surprisingly, Nintendo’s Twitter account teased something similar to this in December last year<\/a>. It was a video featuring the original forms of Zigzagoon and Ponyta in Sword and Shield. At the time, we thought it could be a “subtle confirmation” that the regular forms of Pok\u00e9mon who have a Pok\u00e9dex entry in the new games would be able to be transferred via Pok\u00e9mon Home<\/a>.<\/p>\n
