Crown Tundra Legendary Pokemon Leaked!

With Pokemon: Sword and Shield The Crown Tundra coming out on October 22nd, it looks like many details about the game have been revealed. One of the big questions was what are the new Legendary Pokemon you can grab going to be? Well, those details have finally become available, and you will hopefully be impressed by the brand new Pokemon that you will be able to gather in the DLC. While full details aren't available, we do have enough information that should get you hyped up for the release!

New Legendary Pokemon

The Legendary Pokemon you can expect in Crown Tundra are Calyrex, Glastrier, and Spectrier. The latter two are both horse Pokemon, with Specrtier being a Swift Horse and Glastrier being a Wild Horse. It appears that Spectrier is a Ghost-type, and Glastrier is an Ice-type. Both will be pretty powerful, so you will want to add them to your team as soon as you can!

If you're curious about Glastrier, here are the description for it based on the version of game you have!

• Sword: Glastrier emits intense cold from its hooves. It's also a belligerent Pokémon—anything it wants, it takes by force.
• Shield: Glastrier has tremendous physical strength, and the mask of ice covering its face is 100 times harder than diamond.

Here are the descriptions for Spectrier based on the version of Pokemon Sword and Shield you have!

• Sword: It probes its surroundings with all its senses save one—it doesn't use its sense of sight. Spectrier's kicks are said to separate soul from body.
• Shield: As it dashes through the night, Spectrier absorbs the life-force of sleeping creatures. It craves silence and solitude.

Glastrier's ability is called Chilling Neigh, and if Glastrier knocks out a Pokemon, it will let out a neigh, which will boost its Attack stat. Here's the leaked description:

Spectrier's ability on the other hand is quite similar! It is called Grim Neigh, and if it knocks out a Pokemon, it will also let out a neigh, but will gain Special Attack instead of Physical Attack. Here's the leaked description:

As for Calyrex, it is a pretty interesting Pokemon. It has been revealed before, but some additional details are now available for it. The ability it will get is Unnerve, which is a fairly common ability that many other Pokemon have. It makes the opposing Pokemon nervous and unable to eat Berries. As for in-game descriptions, here's what is said about it:

• Sword: Calyrex is a merciful Pokémon, capable of providing healing and blessings. It reigned over the Galar region in times of yore.
• Shield: Calyrex is known in legend as a king that ruled over Galar in ancient times. It has the power to cause hearts to mend and plants to spring forth.

Calyrex has the ability to merge with both Glastrier or Spectrier. Once that happens, it will turn into a new Pokemon depending on which you merged with. One is Calyrex (Ice Rider) and the other is Calyrex (Shadow Rider). Once you merge the two, you will get two abilities, you will get the horse's ability as well as Unnerve from Calyrex.

Here are the descriptions for Calyrex (Ice Rider):

• Sword: According to lore, this Pokémon showed no mercy to those who got in its way, yet it would heal its opponents' wounds after battle.
• Shield: It's said that this Pokémon once moved a large forest—and all the Pokémon living there—to a new location overnight.

Here are the descriptions for Calyrex (Shadow Rider):

• Sword: It's said that Calyrex and a Pokémon that had bonded with it ran all across the Galar region to bring green to the wastelands.
• Shield: Legend says that by using its power to see all events from past to future, this Pokémon saved the creatures of a forest from a meteorite strike.

There's going to be a lot of choices ahead for you, so all Pokemon fans should be getting excited for the DLC release on October 22nd, 2020!
