Meltan and Melmetal

[edit]
  • ... that when the Pokémon Meltan was first revealed in Pokémon Go, many players thought it was a placeholder revealed by a glitch? Source: TechCrunch - "Was it just a glitch? Many players assumed that Niantic put this thing in as a placeholder and a glitch brought it into public view. Or did they really just drop an entirely new Pokémon into the game out of nowhere?"; Polygon - "Many players initially wondered if the new Pokémon was some type of glitch,"

  • Comment: Video game DYKs seem to be a bit lacking anyways.
