Furfrou makes a comeback in Pokmon Legends Z-A (Nintendo)The next Pokmon game looks set to fill in the blanks in the Nintendo Switch Pokdex, but a certain elemental trio are still missing.Pokmon Legends Z-A received a brand new trailer during last weeks Pokmon Presents showcase, where we got a first look at the revamped real-time battles and the return of mega evolutions.Beyond the mechanics, the trailer also revealed some Pokmon we can expect to see in the Pokmon Legends: Arceus sequel, including Flaaffy, Talonflame, Onix, and Absol. We also got confirmation of the games starters: Totodile and Chikorita from Pokmon Gold and Silver, and Tepig from Pokmon Black and White.However, the trailer also confirmed the return of some monsters which arent available in any other Pokmon game on the Nintendo Switch, specifically Furfrou and Patrat.Both of these Pokmon were part of a shrinking list of monsters which cannot be caught in any Pokmon game on Nintendo Switch. You can still access them all by transferring them from other Pokmon games into cloud service Pokmon Home, but that can be a pain for newcomers who dont want to dig into the old games.The inclusion of Furfrou and Patrat (and by extension, Patrats evolution Watchog) in the trailer, means there are only three monsters left which arent available on Switch: the three elemental monkeys Pansage, Panpour, and Pansear, and their evolutions.More TrendingThese monkeys were first introduced in Pokmon Black and White and can evolve into Simisage, Simipour, and Simisear using the correct elemental stone. Theyre not exactly the most beloved critters in the series but they are now the only ones you cant easily get. Pansage, Panpour, and Pansear arent many peoples favourites (The Pokmon Company)The addition of Patrat and Furfrou has sparked hope the monkeys will make a return in Pokmon Legends Z-A. It makes sense too considering Pokmon Legends Z-A is set in the Kalos region from Pokmon X and Y, where the monkeys can be caught, so theres a high chance they will make a return if Z-A follows the same Kalos pokdex.As for what else we can expect in Pokmon Legends Z-A, the game will be entirely centred around Lumiose City, a riff on Paris, from Pokmon X and Y, which is populated with Wild Zones to catch monsters on the streets and rooftops.The game is set to be released in late 2025 on the Nintendo Switch, with Game Freak so far implying that there are no plans for a separate Switch 2 version.Every missing Pokmon on the Nintendo SwitchPanpourSimipourPansageSimisagePansearSimisearPatratWatchogFurfrouEmailgamecentral@metro.co.uk, leave a comment below,follow us on Twitter, andsign-up to our newsletter.To submit Inbox letters and Readers Features more easily, without the need to send an email, just use ourSubmit Stuff page here.For more stories like this,check our Gaming page.GameCentralSign up for exclusive analysis, latest releases, and bonus community content.This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply.
