Last month, Pokemon revealed a new mythical Pokemon for the 8th generation of Pokemon games, Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield. Along with the news of the new Pokemon Movie Coco, the new mythical was shown to be Zarude.
What do we Know of Zarude’s New Move?
A month onwards, it has been revealed that this mythical Pokemon has a special move known as Jungle Healing. Jungle Healing is a grass-type move that will allow Zarude, at the moment, to heal his HP in battle. Jungle Healing heals any ally Pokemon on the field, as well as curing any negative status conditions. Not all details on the move are known at this current moment in time, however.
In the below image obtained, you can see Zarude using the move Jungle Healing in battle against an opposing Pokemon.
As well as the new move, Jungle Healing also seems to have its own unique animation within Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield. This is bound to excite Pokemon fans who have been hoping since Sword & Shield’s release to see moves with improved animations.
