At the event, we were greeted by the three Pokémon that appear in "Pokémon Scarlet Violet": Hogeta, Meowha, and Kwassu, as well as Pikachu. Pikachu.
I took a quick shot of them before entering the venue.


While I was enjoying Pikachu and the new Pokémon Hogeta, Nyaha, and Kwassu, all of which are cute... I noticed something strange.


What's that? Nyaha is standing up!


Nyaha, which appears in the game, was introduced as a four-legged walker, but at the event, it appeared with a two-legged walker, which is different from the one in the game.
The question of whether or not Nyaha will be able to stand up when it evolves has been attracting a lot of attention, with the word "Nyaha" trending high on Twitter.
Is it possible that Nyaoha will stand up when it evolves? The expectations for the evolutionary form of the creature are growing.

Pokemon Research Club members will hold an after-school talk session on the topic of "Pokemon"!
The topic was which Pokémon to choose among the first three you meet in "Pokémon Scarlet Violet," Hogeta, Meowha, and Kwassu, and they all announced it at once with their Pokémon plushies.

Hajime Chow chose "Hogeta," but the audience responded, " What? Just me?!" he commented in a panic.
The reason why he chose "Hogeta" was "I chose it because it has cute feet that look like it has been wearing shoes for a long time, and I felt a sense of familiar ity with it.

Korin Muto, Kenshiro Kato, and Saki Sasagi chose "Meowha.
Korin Muto said, "I love dogs and cats among animals, so I chose the cat-like Nyaoha. Kenshiro Kato said, " I chose it because I fell in love with it at first sight, it's too cute, " and Saki Sasagi immediately responded, " It looks so cute, I had to choose it.

Ms. Keii chose "Kwassu.
"When I imagine what it will look like after evolution, I think Kwassu is closer to my ideal. I think it would be nice to be able to enjoy both forms when it evolves from cute to cool," she commented, anticipating the new form.

In the latter half of the talk session, the topic of the world championship "Pokémon World Championships 2023," which will be held in Japan for the first time next year, was discussed, and Hajime Shacho enthusiastically declared, " I will participate in the Pokémon World Championships 2023! I'm going to compete in the Pokémon World Championships 2023!

The event also included a surprise project targeting Hajime Shacho-san.
" If you were to compare Hajime Shacho-san to a Pokemon, what would it be? The members of the research club prepared handwritten flips and announced it all at once!
The unexpected surprise was " You didn't listen to me at all! I didn't hear you at all! " and the research club members couldn't help but smile as they scurried around and looked at their surroundings.

Kenshiro Kato compared HAJIME SHACHO to the phantom Pokémon "Arceus," to which HAJIME SHACHO responded, " Arceus, me? You sure? Really? I'm so happy! I'm so excited!"
The reason why I chose him was because "I started watching YouTube properly and the first YouTuber I saw was Hajime-san. If anyone is a Pokémon legend, it's Arceus, and if anyone is a YouTube legend, it's Hajime-san! That's why I chose Arceus.

Korin Muto chose "Jukine.
When I met him in person, he was tall and stylish, so I chose 'Jukain' because he has both gentleness and a soft atmosphere," she said.

When asked by the host how he felt after experiencing the surprise, Hajime Shacho said, " Everyone's image of me is surprisingly different from each other.
"After a while, I would like to ask all the members of the research club to compare me to a Pokemon one more time. I'm sure my image will be different, so I'm looking forward to it," he said, expressing surprise but also amusement.

In closing, Hajime Shacho said, " There are many ways to play Pokemon, such as catching and battling, and I hope we can show you various ways to enjoy P okemon. I am really looking forward to tomorrow. All of us in the Pokemon Research Club look forward to your continued support! " and the event ended with a comment.
