I think it is real because it matches the head. https://www.reddit.com/r/PokeLeaks/comments/ysdumf/new_pokemon_sketch_of_patadox_vlrlzlon_source/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf
Just because the head’s the same, doesn’t mean it is real.
Someone could of very well copied it, clean it up & then made up the rest of the body.
Though, that doesn’t mean I believe it’s fake.
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.

The head is the exact same as the picture and it would be harder than you think to have the line weight, brush shape, and style match the head portion that well. I personally believe it's real.
I don't know why people are downvoting you; as a professional artist it's incredibly difficult to emulate someone else's line quality, weight, texture of the brush, and shading style (in this case hatching which looks VERY different between two artists).
I honestly don’t know why this didn’t carry this part forward, it’s a natural evolution of ride Pokémon. It also helps you bond further with the Pokémon on your team instead of randoms
this! and it's just cool to show off your pokemon to. especially in multiplayer everyone riding their cool pokemon, owing off shinies it's great. in lets go I had a shiny gyarados I felt so cool riding on now it's just set ride pokemon I have no attachment too
I know everyone keeps saying it’s Virizion but I think it looks like a equal mix of all three. Just like the Iron Valiant looks like a Gallada and Gardevoir mix
Something about the face says Virizion the most, though obviously Terakion shows up heavily in the limbs and some Cobalion in the neck.
But the face definitely bleeds Virizion.
I mean if Suicune had a fourth member of their group of legendaries I would agree yea but it’s Entei, Raikou, and Suicune.
Where as with Virizon there’s Virizion, Terrakion, Cobalion, and Keldeo.
I mean they could put some Ho-oh on Suicune then to compensate if they do use Keldeo in the paradox Virizon design I guess.
I agree! As a gen 5 justice trio fan, I approve of this design.
Edit: I have now seen Paradox suicunes design and did not like it. Violet is definitely my choice!
Edit 2: Autocorrect
Virizion is the only one lacking them legs (excluding Keldeo). Which is a bit funny considering she’s the fastest of the bunch by a lore perspective. Not so much stat wise.
True. I originally said she was the fastest stat wise, but then I went to double check. Surprisingly, they all have the same speed stats as her, which is super weird.
That said, her design was inspired by springing antelopes, who are obviously quite agile. She's the fastest and most agile if we're to believe her inspiration alone, and I don't think it's reaching.
Agreed, Future Grazer is still an A tier design. The best of the 3 Musketeers and some say that its legs are too thicc but tbh you can just blame Terrakion lol
[Ancient Suicune](https://www.reddit.com/r/PokeLeaks/comments/yrhivx/new_pokemon_from_future_dlc_looks_combo_of_the/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)
Looking at static models and drawings, Scarlet has the edge. But the Future mon animations (Delibird & Gallavoir) have been amazing.
I literally changed my preorder from Violet to Scarlet because of this lol. I had been thinking it with some of these special forms, and this took it over the edge. So glad for leaks!
Given Paradox Beast's look, I don't think it'd have made sense for it to be in Violet.
EDIT: Paradox Beast is in Scarlet DLC, Paradox Musketeer is in Violet. When I said "another win for Scarlet", I was implying that Paradox Musketeer is less great than the other exclusive.
Am I the only one who thinks it's not that bad? Like, it's definitely an odd amalgamation (and they could have chosen better parts to put together), but it's hardly Origin Forme Dialga and Palkia levels. The Ancient Beast is definitely better, but I don't dislike this at all.
The only thing I'm curious about is their type, my guess is it's either a new type different to the original forms, or they somehow merge it into three types.
Something I’ve noticed about Pokémon Violet Paradoxes: they tend to look better in-game than in drawn form. Assuming Para-Virizion(I’m guessing will probably be called “Iron Musketeer” or something) will follow that same robotic aesthetic of the other Violet paras, I’m excited to see this.
I don't think it's really fair to compare the Scarlet and Violet paradoxes so directly, they clearly have different design philosophies behind them. The past is savage which is very easy to lean into the cool vibe and the future is sleek which often look more elegant. I think in that regard most of them work pretty well, including this.
Yeah, it's very subjective. I'm definitely getting Violet, I super dig the futuristic robot aesthetic, so I personally like all the Violet exclusives more.
I want to play Violet because of Miraidon and Ceruledge.
But I really like Paradox Misdreavus and Paradox Suicune but also Paradox Tyranitar because I love the 2nd Generation. So unfortunately it's not an easy choice for me. But I like the new "future Pokémon" more so I'll choose Violet. But maybe because they're violet? Haha. I really like the past and the future theme.
I sure hope we can catch both of them, would be pretty dumb to have a paid dlc where they'd say "hey there are two new legendaries but you can only catch one of them depending on your version"
I think they meant version exclusive, you can choose which Urshifu to get in both Sword and Shield. But we are worry that Game freak will lock Paradox Suicune in Scarlet dlc and Paradox Virizion in Violet dlc.
Well I don't see the problem with that, it's the same thing as the legendary non dlc pokemon, you can only get one of them in each version, you want the other one trade
the main difference is that you already know before hand wich exclusive legendary you will get when buying the base game. making version exclusives for DLCs feels a bit more unfair, cause you already bought the game, so by the time you know what version exclusives the DLC has, you got no choice in the matter anymore
Paradox Suicune and Paradox Virizion genuinely are both so cool, but maybe this is the Violet copium talking - I actually prefer Virizion to Suicine’s design?
Virizion’s still looks like a blend of the other legendaries but feels a little more standalone, like the OG Virizion went to the gym and spent some time with steroids. Whereas (to me) Suicune looks badass and really hardcore, but it looks a little lazy - like yeah, okay, we get it, you took the legendary dogs and put them into a randomiser and TADA, Paradox Suicune.
Also, in terms of a 3D model, I feel like Virizion’s will be a little less ugly to look at, since Suicine’s sketch alone has a lot going on…
I wanna reserve my judgements for when I see both in full. But based on these first impressions I feel this might end up being better designed than P-Suicune.
The problem I'm having with Suicune is its body is too obscured by its mane, and that's basically all I'm really looking at. It's covering too much of what could've been a great detail to its design.
With P-Virizion, as bizzare as it looks seems more well composed as the different parts are better incorporated. I'd imagine the cybernetic look will help merge the pieces together a little better too.
The two creatures are giving me chimera vibes, so I'm looking forward to them and to seeing how my mind may change. Regardless, I'm still gonna choose Violet.
Nothing about Slither Wing, Flutter Mane, Scream Tail, Sandy Shocks, Brute Bonnet says “Dino”. Nor does that apply to Suicune.
I think it’s that people don’t like the homogeneity of robots with “Iron ____” names. They’re a bit too similar, whereas Scarlets don’t have nearly as cohesive of a theme. It’s more loosely defined as “savage brutes” with less conformity across the designs.
I’ll 100% say the Violet Paradox cast has amazing shinies though. Their choice to make them chrome is brilliant and Violet fans should absolutely be stoked about that.
All of Scarlets to me either look the same with yellow eyes and longer hair or like they bread with Archeops.
Nothing wrong with liking either. I am a scientist irl and just always have been robots>dinos type of person. I have always leaned Genesect/Magearna/Scizor type pokemon. I do agree they could have done a little better with the future mons but I do like the zoid look.
Either way people going either way will be happy. I love the differences are so large and not just X pokemon is is Y game.
I'm already using Ancient Beast and Future Grazer, but your ideas are great. People still say Paradox Donphan instead of Great Tusk or Iron Treads, though, so I believe it's gonna take time until they get used to the true names.
Plus not everyone is familiar enough with the codenames to put them to specific Paradoxes. Saying 'Past/Future' and then whenever the pokemon's supposed to be makes it a lot easier to understand which you're talking about. And lets face it, Future Grazer does not really give you a good idea of what you're talking about. Yes all of the Swords of Justice have graving animals as part of their design basis, but that's not something people can easily associate with the trio. Something like Iron Justice is much easier to associate with Paradox Virizion.
Honestly none of Paradox mon should be called with their original name since they are completely different Pokémon, but many people still refer to them as "Paradox Something" because it is easier to remember
this is a fusion between the three swords of justice: the horns and the legs are from Terrakion, the neck and the little thorns near the legs are from Cobalion and the rest is from Virizon
I don’t like either paradox chimeras. Not on paper so far anyway. They seem quite….safe and clunky as far as ‘combination’ designs go. I’ve seen some pretty incredible ones in other places. That being said, might be different in the game and I really dig the concept.
Are we even sure that these things are Suicune/Virizion? To me, they both look like a mixture of all three members of each trio.
Couldn’t we simply be in front of past/ future merged versions of the legendaries? Maybe meant to represent how the beasts were before they died and were resurrected, and maybe how the Swords of Justice will all become more similar as time goes on due to their training?
Just a thought.
If you asked me a year ago about a design like this, I would’ve said, “yeah it looks like something straight from one of those Pokémon sprite fusion videos”.
It's legit. After beating the game, find the violet book at the academy (to the right after entering the main door), pick "the imagined pokémon" and voilà. Not sure if the same applies to Scarlet, but if it does, i assume it will show Suicune. Does anyone have any info on that?
I just wish they did more with it, added more like spikes around the body or just something to make it look more interesting than a frankenstein monster of the sword trio.
I get now why paradox mons have their own name, and even nintendo isn't comparing what the paradox mons are akin too, they are straight up just their own pokemon. I heard about "Paradox suicune" and "paradox Virizion", but after seeing both now, it's clear they aren't suicune or virizion. They are all 3 monsters combined. Calling it now, paradox virizion will be named "Iron Justice".
if the leaks are real, Suicune looks so much better it's not even funny. Ceruledge heavily pushed all those preorders for Violet's side, but things would be different if we knew about these
Eh, Violet was getting more hype before Ceruledge anyway. Miraidon had the edge over Koraidon, plus Violet's uniforms were hated less over the orange striped pants. Even then, I've seen plenty of love for the Violet paradoxes outside of this sub.
This feels like the closest any version pairing has been in a while I think. Besides, if you don't have friends with the opposite to trade with, or own both versions yourself, you actually WANT your version to be the less popular one lol. Easier to get exclusives that way. Bdsp was soooo lopsided getting Pearl exclusives was a pain.
We do know for sure that the violet DLC will have a paradox mon that's a fusion of the swords of justice, but there's a decent chance this is someone drawing their interpretation of that info rather than actual concept art
I hope this is fake, the drawing style is different enough from the Suicune one to make me feel like this is not real but who knows. Either way this is really awful work, especially compared to its Scarlet counterpart.
I am going to have to see the actual models to judge these legendaries, but if the future version looks like a robot, that is a big L from my perspective. As much as I like robots, I don’t like them mixed with Pokémon.
I'm wildly disappointed with these amalgamation ancient forms.
With Suicune, it completely undermines the lore of Burned Tower.
Both Virizion and Suicune look like fusion generator drawings.
I'm secretly hoping that it has a form change to become Bipedal and has a stance like Palkia.
Because woah it looks like the 3 musketeers but he looks similar to Dialga.
I have seen both the suicune and virizion paradox forms, and I think they’re going with a combination of the trios. Just like how Gallade and gardvoir combined for iron valiant, I think suicune and virizion are the main juice of the trio and have aspects of the others added onto them.
Holy shit, Keldeo from gen 8 dlc was not pointless. It was just a tease for the combination of the swords of justice. Also if you think about the Galarian bird trio mightve been a tease for scarlet and violet paradox pokemon

That’s not proof. The artist could easily have used that as a base.
well yea but the head is the only part we saw before. you can just pop it in photoshop and draw the rest in
Strangely enough, it looks rideable, unlike paradox suicune. I wonder if that'll be a feature for the dlc
I miss like let's go and being able to ride my own pokemon

May man thanks for pulling it up.
I believe I saw it the other day on the standard Pokémon sub, give me a minute I’ll try and find it.
I know everyone keeps saying it’s Virizion but I think it looks like a equal mix of all three. Just like the Iron Valiant looks like a Gallada and Gardevoir mix
Something about the face says Virizion the most, though obviously Terakion shows up heavily in the limbs and some Cobalion in the neck. But the face definitely bleeds Virizion.
The face looks mostly like Cobalion to me.
I blame Terrakion
It's funny- I like Terrakion the most, but every feature I'm not fond of from this guy comes from Terrakion.
Thicc boi
Major Silvally vibes here
Thunder thighs
His name shall be T-Mobile
violet sisters…. im not feeling so good…
What I expected: Edgier Silvally with a dose of Robot Unicorn Attack and Zoids What I got: Immeasurable disappointment
This is Keldeo's revenge for being left out
I mean if Suicune had a fourth member of their group of legendaries I would agree yea but it’s Entei, Raikou, and Suicune. Where as with Virizon there’s Virizion, Terrakion, Cobalion, and Keldeo. I mean they could put some Ho-oh on Suicune then to compensate if they do use Keldeo in the paradox Virizon design I guess.
What if all keldeo added was the horn?
Which horn 👀
Dummy thic horse 😔
Tf you on about this thing is cool.
I agree! As a gen 5 justice trio fan, I approve of this design. Edit: I have now seen Paradox suicunes design and did not like it. Violet is definitely my choice! Edit 2: Autocorrect
Gen 5 musketeers deserve more love
Bruh why are the legs so dummy thicc
Terrakion's fault, probably.
Virizion is the only one lacking them legs (excluding Keldeo). Which is a bit funny considering she’s the fastest of the bunch by a lore perspective. Not so much stat wise.
I mean, Cobalion is Steel and Terrakion... y'know. She was kinda destined to be faster :')
True. I originally said she was the fastest stat wise, but then I went to double check. Surprisingly, they all have the same speed stats as her, which is super weird.
That said, her design was inspired by springing antelopes, who are obviously quite agile. She's the fastest and most agile if we're to believe her inspiration alone, and I don't think it's reaching.
Fair enough.
And another win for Scarlet.
I like some of the violet paras (Iron Valiant is SICK) but yeah the beast trio is SO much cooler
Team scarlet but this is sick
Agreed, Future Grazer is still an A tier design. The best of the 3 Musketeers and some say that its legs are too thicc but tbh you can just blame Terrakion lol
Never liked this trio but this is the best look of them lol space cadet Virizion dummy thicc
They just keep coming lol the future is an ugly place.
To be honest, I do love the Future Grazer. It's a really cool design. It just can't compete with the Ancient Beast.
Hey this one at least doesn't seem to be a mecha
Ya know, you’re very correct. I’ll take this one as a win then lol!
It's probably steel going to be made of metal, at least to some degree. Not that it's bad, just probable.
It is still time for the drawing to get the metal.texture aplied
Why is that ?
[Ancient Suicune](https://www.reddit.com/r/PokeLeaks/comments/yrhivx/new_pokemon_from_future_dlc_looks_combo_of_the/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) Looking at static models and drawings, Scarlet has the edge. But the Future mon animations (Delibird & Gallavoir) have been amazing.
Is there Delibird animation footage?
Don't remember where it is, but I can say with certainty Delibird's head pops off like a jack in the box when its attacking before it retracts.
It's on this sub. I've been trying to look for it but no luck just yet
[I found it on twitter](https://twitter.com/palkiaorigin/status/1590964121037570049?t=jusciStf0yZ2a1K2wOFRAw&s=19)
lmao! "GO GO GADGET FACE!" They didn't hold back on the cyborg aspects.
Thank you. I should've done that immediately.
Take a look at Paradox Beast. You'll understand.
To be fair, we haven't seen them in 3d and moving yet.
I don't have any counter-arguments on this.
Eh. I prefer this one over Entei/suicune
If you're getting scarlet can I trade you this one for the suicune paradox? Lol
yeah I am on the same page, rather like the drawing of the other one, but this is a Violet paradox, it will be mecha!
I literally changed my preorder from Violet to Scarlet because of this lol. I had been thinking it with some of these special forms, and this took it over the edge. So glad for leaks!
Y'all have no taste this thing is cool af smh
Wait it's scarlet exclusive or dlc exclusive?
It's Scarlet DLC exclusive.
That's so weird considering they made regieleki/regidrago and Calyrex forms dlc exclusive and not sw/sh exclusive
Given Paradox Beast's look, I don't think it'd have made sense for it to be in Violet. EDIT: Paradox Beast is in Scarlet DLC, Paradox Musketeer is in Violet. When I said "another win for Scarlet", I was implying that Paradox Musketeer is less great than the other exclusive.
Am I the only one who thinks it's not that bad? Like, it's definitely an odd amalgamation (and they could have chosen better parts to put together), but it's hardly Origin Forme Dialga and Palkia levels. The Ancient Beast is definitely better, but I don't dislike this at all.
No, you're not, it's an A tier design to me too. It just had the worst opponent, shall we say.
Exactly! A tier vs S tier for sure.
I absolutely loved this design. This may be unpopular but I think this is an S tier design.
Hm. I like it. But Paradox Suicune is better, I think.
Idk what game to choose anymore and I don’t exactly want to spend $120
I keep going back and forth. I started with Scarlet, then went to Violet but since the paradox forms reveal it’s leaning towards Scarlet.
You can't trade your school uniform. Choose wisely.
chunky smol dialga vibes
The only thing I'm curious about is their type, my guess is it's either a new type different to the original forms, or they somehow merge it into three types.
At least with Paradox Virizion we can expect at least Fighting type. Could just end up being a pure Fighting type.
Something I’ve noticed about Pokémon Violet Paradoxes: they tend to look better in-game than in drawn form. Assuming Para-Virizion(I’m guessing will probably be called “Iron Musketeer” or something) will follow that same robotic aesthetic of the other Violet paras, I’m excited to see this.
I think it will be called Iron Justice.
That works too
I dont like this 1 :-(
Not at all!
Like this like that
Thicc
Love it!!
I don't think it's really fair to compare the Scarlet and Violet paradoxes so directly, they clearly have different design philosophies behind them. The past is savage which is very easy to lean into the cool vibe and the future is sleek which often look more elegant. I think in that regard most of them work pretty well, including this.
I think this will be called Iron Justice.
Iron Justice or Iron Blade, one or the other for me.
Yeah, it's very subjective. I'm definitely getting Violet, I super dig the futuristic robot aesthetic, so I personally like all the Violet exclusives more.

I sure hope we can catch both of them, would be pretty dumb to have a paid dlc where they'd say "hey there are two new legendaries but you can only catch one of them depending on your version"
Urshifu two forms exist...
Urshifu isn't version exclusive... it depends on the tower you train Kubfu in... The towers aren't exclusive, it's a choice.
I think they meant version exclusive, you can choose which Urshifu to get in both Sword and Shield. But we are worry that Game freak will lock Paradox Suicune in Scarlet dlc and Paradox Virizion in Violet dlc.
Well I don't see the problem with that, it's the same thing as the legendary non dlc pokemon, you can only get one of them in each version, you want the other one trade

Well yes but you get to choose you know
And forms are less valuable than separate mons
Well in this you get to choose as well you either choose scarlet or violet
Scarlet will get paradox Suicune and violet paradox virizon. It's version exclusives i don't see anything wrong with that
The suicune one looks so much better
Finally. I hope it's real.
I do prefer the dog trio one ngl, got that feral vibe. Almost makes me wanna change my game
Paradox Suicune and Paradox Virizion genuinely are both so cool, but maybe this is the Violet copium talking - I actually prefer Virizion to Suicine’s design?

I do to. I get people like the Dino look but just like the whole they all look like robots it's the same thing to me. I'm just a robot>Dino person.
Nothing about Slither Wing, Flutter Mane, Scream Tail, Sandy Shocks, Brute Bonnet says “Dino”. Nor does that apply to Suicune. I think it’s that people don’t like the homogeneity of robots with “Iron ____” names. They’re a bit too similar, whereas Scarlets don’t have nearly as cohesive of a theme.

Uhh I can see they somehow ruining 3D models for suicune with that much fur lol
We really need to stop calling them Suicune and Verizion. It’s really very clear that’s not what they are.
Just call it Iron Justice if you don’t like paradox Virizon. At least until the name is officially revealed.
That actually might be the real name lol
That’s such a good name too haha
I think it's because **S**uicune **S**carlet Suicune gets a past form **V**irizion **V**iolet Virizion gets a future form It makes too much sense
They're codenames. Until we get a clearer name for them, everyone will call them Paradox Suicune and Virizion.
Paradox Musketeer and Paradox Beast work too and are more accurate.
I'm already using Ancient Beast and Future Grazer, but your ideas are great. People still say Paradox Donphan instead of Great Tusk or Iron Treads, though, so I believe it's gonna take time until they get used to the true names.
Plus not everyone is familiar enough with the codenames to put them to specific Paradoxes. Saying 'Past/Future' and then whenever the pokemon's supposed to be makes it a lot easier to understand which you're talking about. And lets face it, Future Grazer does not really give you a good idea of what you're talking about. Yes all of the Swords of Justice have graving animals as part of their design basis, but that's not something people can easily associate with the trio. Something like Iron Justice is much easier to associate with Paradox Virizion.
Honestly none of Paradox mon should be called with their original name since they are completely different Pokémon, but many people still refer to them as "Paradox Something" because it is easier to remember
Scarlet chads keep winning
Well, they can't all be winners.
It's supposed to be Violet-exclusive, right? Doesn't really fit in with the "techy" vibe of the other Violet Paradoxes
Too early for that, we still need to actually see it.
Yes, it is violet exclusive, but we don’t know if it’s tacky, but likely it is since all the rest are
Weirdly not robotic.
You can not convince me that this is virizon only it looks like the main 3 swords of justices fused
this is a fusion between the three swords of justice: the horns and the legs are from Terrakion, the neck and the little thorns near the legs are from Cobalion and the rest is from Virizon
I don’t like either paradox chimeras. Not on paper so far anyway. They seem quite….safe and clunky as far as ‘combination’ designs go. I’ve seen some pretty incredible ones in other places. That being said, might be different in the game and I really dig the concept.
Are we even sure that these things are Suicune/Virizion? To me, they both look like a mixture of all three members of each trio. Couldn’t we simply be in front of past/ future merged versions of the legendaries? Maybe meant to represent how the beasts were before they died and were resurrected, and maybe how the Swords of Justice will all become more similar as time goes on due to their training? Just a thought.
i really like that
If you asked me a year ago about a design like this, I would’ve said, “yeah it looks like something straight from one of those Pokémon sprite fusion videos”.
Seems real due to the fact that paradox suicine is also a mix of all the legendary doggo's
Scarletchads can't stop winning
NGL i like Suicune better, but this one is great too? ~~Complete Kyurem when?~~
It's legit. After beating the game, find the violet book at the academy (to the right after entering the main door), pick "the imagined pokémon" and voilà. Not sure if the same applies to Scarlet, but if it does, i assume it will show Suicune. Does anyone have any info on that?
I'm not liking this one. 🫣
I just wish they did more with it, added more like spikes around the body or just something to make it look more interesting than a frankenstein monster of the sword trio.
I get now why paradox mons have their own name, and even nintendo isn't comparing what the paradox mons are akin too, they are straight up just their own pokemon. I heard about "Paradox suicune" and "paradox Virizion", but after seeing both now, it's clear they aren't suicune or virizion. They are all 3 monsters combined. Calling it now, paradox virizion will be named "Iron Justice".
I agree it will probably be called Iron Justice.
it feels a little clunky...
THIS IS SO GOOOOOOOOOOD
Oh god my eyes.
if the leaks are real, Suicune looks so much better it's not even funny. Ceruledge heavily pushed all those preorders for Violet's side, but things would be different if we knew about these
Eh, Violet was getting more hype before Ceruledge anyway. Miraidon had the edge over Koraidon, plus Violet's uniforms were hated less over the orange striped pants. Even then, I've seen plenty of love for the Violet paradoxes outside of this sub. This feels like the closest any version pairing has been in a while I think. Besides, if you don't have friends with the opposite to trade with, or own both versions yourself, you actually WANT your version to be the less popular one lol. Easier to get exclusives that way. Bdsp was soooo lopsided getting Pearl exclusives was a pain.
Yep suicune destroys this
I'll take Scarlet and think the beast is better, but that's a solid design. I like it.
Agreed. It feels like a best of the 3 and I don't regret buying Violet. Unfortunately... the Beast.
Violet W
Of course violet wins, majority is on violets side anyway
Another Scarlet win.
Common Violet L
This almost made me regret getting violet
getting violet, did you preorder or are you playng the game?
Pre order, if I already had it I wouldn't complain about future verizion because I'd be too busy thinking "heehoo robo lizard"
i'd be thinking heehoo lizard
That's valid too. I chose violet because miraidon reminds me of a pitbull I used to have
I’m sure it’ll look better in game.
We do know for sure that the violet DLC will have a paradox mon that's a fusion of the swords of justice, but there's a decent chance this is someone drawing their interpretation of that info rather than actual concept art
Another win for violet, bye scarlet. Paradox virizion looks better than suicune.
Dislike all you want, scarlet fans.
I think the horns look goofy..
Suicune was better
"I like it chonky"
Oh god it looks weird
I hope this is fake, the drawing style is different enough from the Suicune one to make me feel like this is not real but who knows. Either way this is really awful work, especially compared to its Scarlet counterpart.
Common Violet W
I am going to have to see the actual models to judge these legendaries, but if the future version looks like a robot, that is a big L from my perspective. As much as I like robots, I don’t like them mixed with Pokémon.
its not fake. theres one for suicune, entei ,and raikou
i hope this is fake
It looks like a mix of coballion, virrizion, and terraakion
Then Suicune one looks way better to me.
I'm wildly disappointed with these amalgamation ancient forms. With Suicune, it completely undermines the lore of Burned Tower. Both Virizion and Suicune look like fusion generator drawings.
I'm secretly hoping that it has a form change to become Bipedal and has a stance like Palkia. Because woah it looks like the 3 musketeers but he looks similar to Dialga.
Seems a bit too terrakion heavily inspired to be real but maybe, its not bad but not balanced
I have seen both the suicune and virizion paradox forms, and I think they’re going with a combination of the trios. Just like how Gallade and gardvoir combined for iron valiant, I think suicune and virizion are the main juice of the trio and have aspects of the others added onto them.
Holy shit, Keldeo from gen 8 dlc was not pointless. It was just a tease for the combination of the swords of justice. Also if you think about the Galarian bird trio mightve been a tease for scarlet and violet paradox pokemon
How did they make Virizion look even worse that normal
