The latest work in the Pokémon series, Pokémon Zhu/Zi, was unveiled at last night's press conference. According to the official introduction, the game will present the stage of the story in the form of an open world, and after its release, it will be associated with Pokémon HOME, where players can freely carry out adventures. In this 3-minute promotional video, we glance at some of the scenes and images in this work, and there is no doubt that the focus of this broadcast is properly placed on the end: a "famous painting" shines, and the protagonists of the work are none other than the three houses of the work - New Leaf Meow, Dumb Fire E, and Runshui Duck.

At present, the three new partners who will only appear in the new work have published specific attributes and profiles on the official website. The grass Pokémon New Leaf Meow has a casual and playful personality, the Fire E is a leisurely and self-contained Fire Pokémon, and the Water Pokémon Runshui Duck is a small duck with a serious personality and loves cleanliness. But in addition, more background information about the three Pokémon was disclosed.
Although the details of the three new Pokémon are still relatively small and the public comments on them are mixed, as in the past, there are countless players who have drawn interesting maps and extended creations for the new Pokémon immediately after seeing them:
"I love these three initial Pokémon of the Ninth Generation so much, how can they be so cute?"

At the same time, in addition to the pure secondary creation, players have gradually begun to think big. Before the official announcement of the evolutionary form of the three Pokémon, many people had already completed the evolutionary form of the Mizoya through their own associations: "The Runshui Duck is so cute, so I imagined what it would look like after evolution and drew it."

At present, the creation of the new Imperial Three Houses is still pouring out in large quantities, and players are tirelessly commenting and discussing these topics. Some of the ideas made people frown: "Don't go, this one you drew directly dissuaded me." But there are also ideas that make people clap their hands and exclaim, "Oh! This one you painted is exactly what I wanted! I'm fascinated by him."
At present, we don't know which style the evolutionary form of the Imperial Three Houses will eventually lead to, but it is certain that the creations produced by the player's brain opening process are equally precious and interesting. Even in the minds of some players, some of the designs of the Soul Painter have gone beyond the official original settings.
Pokémon Zhu/Purple is expected to land on the Switch platform in the winter of 2022 and support Chinese.
