Pokémon Legends: Arceus trailer gives sneak-peek at starter evolutions

Rowlet fans rise up.

We’re mere days away from the release of Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and Nintendo was gracious enough to whet our appetites with a new trailer.

Unlike  previous overview videos  for Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Tuesday’s new trailer teases what  the starter Pokémon’s  final evolutions may be. Oshawott, Rowlet, and, Cyndaquil are front and center as starters this go-around, with each evolving into Dewott, Dartrix, and Quilava, respectively. All three of which  look stunning  with that new HD coat of paint; we’ve come a long way since the Nintendo DS days! 

Check out the starter evolutions trailer for Pokémon Legends: Arceus  below. Try not to let giddy nostalgia overpower you, though, as this looks like the Pokémon  game of our dreams.

The scale of Pokémon Legends: Arceus  appears to be on a whole new level for the series, that’s for sure. 

As ever, the eternal question as to which Pokémon type to go with rages on. If you need a hand deciding which starter to choose, check out our rankings for waterfirepsychicghoststeel, and fairy Pokémon types. It’s not quite as simple as red, blue, and yellow anymore!

Pokémon Legends: Arceus is coming out on Jan. 28, 2022, for Nintendo Switch.
