The recent 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Pokemon Scarlet and Violet leaks have given us a lot to take in over the last week or 🧸so, but yet, there's still some things that have surprised us - including starter Pokemon Quaxly's evolution which has no right to be so thicc.

Quaxly's evolution is just one of many new Pokemon we've seen come from the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Pokemon Scarlet and Violet leaks - just this morning we wrote about how unexpected the new 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dunsparce evolution is - but nothing could have prep♌ared us for just how much of a glow up starter Pokemon Quaxly gets in the game. 

If you're still reading this, you must not want to wait to find out for yourself what the evolution looks like when Pokemon Scarlet and Violet releases on November 18, 2022. If you do, we suggest you don't read on any further due to potential mild spoilers. 

So what's the big deal with Quaquaval, the third Quaxly evolution after Quaxwell? Well, as pointed out by and the Reddit post embedded below, the water type Pokemon goes through a few major changes from the adorable Donald Duck look-a-like we're used to seeing by now. It's not that Quaquaval is bad at all, it's just unexpectedly flamboyant with statement hair, huge bright eyebrows, and ahem a rather round behind.

It should💫n't come as too much of a surprise honestly, especially considering Quaxly's impressive coiffed hair - which in one scene of one of the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet trailers is seen flipped in slow motion. The Pokemon also has a very sassy attitude, so going from a little duckling to a much more confident peacock just makes sense. 𒀰Its reveal has, of course, led to a number of memes, our favorite of which can be found below. 

With the recent disappoint some fans have had with the new Pokemon designs, it's nice to see an original design that's pleased the majority of players, one way or another.  

After studying Film Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky enough to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I hel൩ped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training.  My expertise lies in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, cozy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I'm also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team every now and then.
