New trailers showcase Meltan, teases new form

Is it an evolution, or something more? Either way, Meltan messing about in your house is cute.

New videos have been released showcasing Meltan. One involves Professor Willow and Oak mulling over Meltan, while the other features Meltan exploring a person’s home. Check them out below!

A Mystery Box item has since been revealed to be a source for Meltan. Transferring Pokémon from Pokémon GO to Pokémon Let’s Go, Pikachu and Eevee will open this box in Pokémon GO, and allow you to catch Meltan which spawn for up to half an hour before closing again. To re-open the box, you’ll have to transfer more Pokémon over from Pokémon GO.

It’s a box, alright. Same colours as the tail colours Meltan can have, incidentally.

Some other, already known information is repeated, but a new form – perhaps an evolution – is teased at the end of the first video. It appears after a bunch of Meltan are shown sitting together. Could it be an evolution that requires multiple Meltan, like how Magneton and Dugtrio are made up of three Magnemite and Diglett respectively?

Another video was also posted, showing off interactions within Pokémon Let’s Go, Pikachu and Eevee. It appears that the president of the Pokémon Fan Club in Kanto still talks about his Rapidash at great length.

What do you think of the new trailers? Are you warming up to Meltan?
