Earlier data miners revealed details about Galarian form of Farfetch’d, which has now come to be true. Last week, developers of the game announced Sirfetch’d which is a Galarian form of Farfetch’d. Now, a data miner has revealed other interesting details about Pokemon’s evolution. But this news is coming from the official Pokemon Japanese website.

The website allows users to upload any image, and then it adds a random Dynamaxed Pokemon to that image. A data miner named ‘abcboy101’ has studied this website code and has revealed the evolution lines of a few Pokemon.
