Pokemon Legends: Arceus launches January 28, and The Pokemon Company released the game’s final trailer, complete with teases for new Hisuian starter evolutions. While the second form of your starter Pokemon looks the same as their original forms, the final evolutions are a mystery - unless you've been following the leaks, of course.
