But within the sea of garbage, there is always going to be a few nuggets of valuable information floating around.\u00a0 Related: Everything that was revealed in the June 1 Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet trailer One such rumor was based on several elements of the original trailer and some wording for SV\u2019s announcement, pointing to a clock moving back and forth, the region\u2019s design merging ancient architecture with modern technology, and more. Additionally, some fans previously predicted that the new cover Legendary Pok\u00e9mon could be themed around time, but more in the sense of one represents the past, with the other more tied to the future.\u00a0 This only gains more weight with the actual reveal of Koraidon and Miraidon, along with the SV\u2019s professors, Professor Sada and Professor Turo. Are Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet\u2019s Koraidon and Miraidon based on time? While little is currently known about Koraidon and Miraidon, the cover Legendaries for Scarlet and Violet respectively, just looking at their designs and reveal easily ties into the theme of past and future periods. Koraidon has a much more natural look, with colorful features and wild feathers adorning its body. It looks like a creature that would be depicted in cave art or spawn countless local legends in areas where it was seen, like that of older legends.\u00a0 Meanwhile, Miraidon incorporates elements of electricity, plasma, and even some mechanical parts, which make it feel out of place in the past and more at home in a future dominated by technology. It even has jet thrusters for legs! Are Koraidon and Miraidon the same Pok\u00e9mon? The two Legendary Pok\u00e9mon also look shockingly similar in their overall design, at least when it comes to shape and general layout. And, much like Black and White\u2019s lore regarding Reshiram and Zekrom previously being one Pok\u00e9mon, Koraidon and Miraidon could potentially share a similar origin.\u00a0 No concrete information is known about the two Legendary Pok\u00e9mon yet, but with their designs being so similar and the themes of time being prevalent in early images, maybe they are actually the same Pok\u00e9mon just placed in a different time period. It is possible the Legendary adapted over the years, or has an ability that lets it change based on its environment\u2014though, we will have to wait for more information to truly know for sure.\u00a0 As of now, it is more likely that Koraidon and Miraidon are different Pok\u00e9mon, but each represents something important to SV\u2019s story.\u00a0 Everything we know about Professor Sada and Professor Turo During the most recent trailer, Game Freak revealed that players will be picking their professor when they choose what version of SV to play; Professor Sada and Professor Turo are technically version-exclusive content.\u00a0 Professor Sada, a woman with a wild design that looks like a cavewoman blended with a modern Pok\u00e9mon professor, is exclusive to Scarlet. Meanwhile, Professor Turo, a sharp man wearing a futuristic suit of some kind underneath a lab coat, is exclusive to Violet.\u00a0 Both Professors are mentioned as \u201ccarrying out research into lore passed down in the region,\u201d though nothing specific is mentioned about either of their goals or how their research is going. Even so, just based on their designs and English names, we can surmise that they are based in that same time theme.\u00a0 Professor Sada\u2019s name is likely pulled from Pasado and Pasada, which is Portuguese and Spanish for the past. The opposite is true for Professor Turo, whose name is a direct pull from Futuro, the Portuguese and Spanish word for the future.\u00a0 With these context clues in place, it is highly likely that time will play some role in SV\u2019s story, or at least the setting. Maybe it will be closer to the themes of Black City and White Village from Black and White, where, depending on the version you are playing, the time for specific locations, characters, or other details will change.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/01095227\/Koraidon-and-Miraidon.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/605228"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1706"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=605228"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/605228\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":646145,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/605228\/revisions\/646145"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/605253"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=605228"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=605228"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=605228"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=605228"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=605228"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=605228"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=605228"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
