Best ways in which Pokemon GO can introduce Paradox Pokemon

Paradox Pokemon are something that most, if not all, trainers would love to see in Pokemon GO. They are completely new creatures but strongly resemble existing species from the franchise. These Pocket Monsters were first seen in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet, and they are divided into two groups: Ancient for Scarlet and Future for Violet.

This article takes a look at a few ways in which Niantic can implement Paradox creatures in Pokemon GO.

How could Paradox Pokemon debut in Pokemon GO?

1) Special (Paradox) Evolutions

Since Paradox Pocket Monsters bear a striking resemblance to those from the main series, a nice way to introduce them in Pokemon GO would be to implement a new form of evolution in the game.

Like Mega Evolutions, Paradox Evolutions can be a unique game mechanic that Niantic can implement to channel these beasts over from Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.

For Paradox Evolutions, we might be given Paradox Energy, similar to Mega Energy. The process of obtaining Paradox Energy could be similar to that of getting Mega Energy: through raids (Paradox Raids in this case).

2) Paradox Raids

There are different types of raids in Pokemon GO, and one could not think of a better way to introduce a new creature in the game than these battles. Be it new Mega Evolutions, legendary critters, or Ultra Beasts, Niantic has mostly taken to raids to introduce them in the game.

Thus, the same can apply to Paradox Pokemon. Paradox Raids can be a way through which these creatures debut. Players might also get Paradox Energy.

3) Promotional event for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Trainers could expect a collaboration between Pokemon GO and Pokemon Scarlet and Violet for the debut of Paradox critters in the mobile title.

Right now, there is no way of encountering Paradox Pokemon in Niantic's mobile game. Perhaps we will see them in the future, but nothing can be confirmed as of now.
