For example, some gamers continue to playPokemon Sword and Shieldfrom Gen 8. And recently, one player had an unusual encounter withQuagsirein the Gen 8 games that left them questioning the pocket monster’s behavior.
Introduced in Gen 2, Quagsire is a Water/Ground-type Pokemon. It has an amphibious design that features a light blue body with a fin running down its back.

In a post on Reddit, a user known as sleepy_sock shared a video from their time playingPokemon Sword and Shield. In the clip, the Reddit user revealed another side of Quagsire that some people might not often see. The video began with Quagsire running toward the camera, holding a ball. After a brief moment, it stopped next to a Togepi and dropped the object for the player to pick up.
Once the Quagsire had given the ball to sleepy_sock, the player decided to toss the toy again. However, this time the Reddit user chose to throw it in the direction of the Togepi. While the player probably expected theFairy-type Pokemonto pick up the toy, the Quagsire had other plans. Before the Togepi had a chance to grab the ball, Quagsire turned and snatched it. This interaction between the Pokemon prompted the user to comment, “This Quagsire is such a bully.”
Since sleepy_sock posted the clip to Reddit several days ago, many members of thePokemoncommunity have had something to say about the curious interaction between the two pocket monsters. Among the comments, some users jokingly scolded Quagsire for its seemingly inappropriate behavior. “Quagsire stop. Quagsire stop! bad Quagsire bad!!!” Thund3r_Assassin said on Reddit. In addition to these comments from gamers, the post has managed to gain more than 700 upvotes.
While this clip is likely amusing to many fans, it is far from the only news regarding thePokemoncommunity in recent days. In addition, a number of leaks have been taking place regarding the upcoming Gen 9 games,Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. For example, one leak over the past couple of weeks claimed to show aregional variant for Tauros, a Gen 1 bull Pokemon. While the accuracy of many of these leaks is yet to be determined, they evidence the excitement building among fans waiting for the launch of Gen 9.
