The Pokémon all have a feudal Japan aesthetic. That fits with the theme of Pokémon Legends: Arceus, which explores the origins of the Sinnoh region made famous in the Diamond and Pearl games.

Further leaks from this morning include all of the game’s Shiny Pokémon, new forms of Legendaries like Dialga and Palkia, and new Hisuian variants of the final evolutions of the game’s starters. Typhlosion, Decidueye, and Samurott all feature dual types and revamped designs.

There are also several new evolutions for existing Pokémon, like Sneasel and Ursaring. Overall, there seems to be a decent amount of variety when it comes to redesigns and reimagining of older Pokémon and only a handful of completely new ones.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus will release exclusively on the Nintendo Switch on Jan. 28
