Pokémon fans from around the world immediately began celebrating the reveals of all the new Galar forms shown off during yesterday’s batch of Sword & Shield news. And as usual, one of our favorite things about the showcase was seeing all the creative pieces of art popping up through social media.
We’ve rounded up some of the posts celebrating the Galar forms of Weezing, Zigzagoon, and Linoone that really caught our eye, all of which you can see below. We even included some tweets sharing some love for new characters. Let us know which one is your favorite, and maybe give the artist a follow! And if there are any pieces of art that have stolen your own heart, make sure to share them with us on Twitter.

Full credit to Game Freak for doing their homework and discovering that Weezing had an uncanny resemblance to this Victorian portrait. pic.twitter.com/aHcqxUTEBV
