Following the trailer reveal, a passionate fan decided to do something creative for these three Pokemon.
As reported by Gamerant, a user named Emimonserrate on Twitter came up with a retro makeover for Lechonk, Pawmi, and Smoliv. Apparently, this fan gave them an old-school, redesigned appearance.

Going by the shared creation, the three Pokemon use color combinations suited more for a GameBoy Advance. Speaking of the art itself, Lechonk is the main Pokemon, featured in the center between the other two. It’s having a standard position with a coiled tail coming out from the back.
Smoliv is seen in a tackling position while Pawmi is positioned as low to the ground as possible. One thing that’s similar to the recent trailer for Scarlet and Violet is that all three of them show their special personalities in the fan-made designs.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is set to release on November 18, 2022, for the Nintendo Switch.
