Pokémon Scarlet & Violet has a lot of original creatures that we can only speculate on their origin. That's the case with the newly discovered Diglett-like Pokémon that even the Ecological Society can't agree on its background. They're unsure if it's Paldean Form of Diglett or a completely different species. Take a closer look at images of this white Digglet-like creature and draw your own conclusions as to whether this is a new Diglett form or a completely new Pokémon.

Pokémon experts from Serebii.net speculate that this is an entirely new Pokémon species called Wiglett. Although that's all information, for now, even the name draws a connection to Diglett, which means they may be related.

So, is it Diglett of Wiglett? We'll find out soon as Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet are launching on November 18 on Nintendo Switch. Stick around, as we'll continue to investigate this mysterious Pokemon!
