One gamer, going by the handle dekgear, took to thePokemonsubreddit to share with other fans photos of their moddedThe Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wildgame that shows the legendary Miraidon fromPokemon Violet. The various screenshots highlight various features of the pocket monster, including how it looks with the headlight and performing tricks such as a wheely, which is not possible for its counterpart inPokemon Violet. One of dekgear’s screenshots also shows that Miraidon stops glowing when it is out of fuel and regains the Pokemon’s signature yellow sides when full.
While there is no confirmation, it can be assumed that dekgear modified the Master Cycle Zero, a Sheikah motorcycle that was added toBreath of the Wildthrough the Champions’ Ballad DLC. As for Miraidon, the Legendary Paradox Pokemon was introduced inPokemon Scarlet and Violet, the ninth generation of the games, which has its ownrecently released DLC The Teal Mask, where players can explore a whole new region called Kitakami.
With no planned DLC forThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomor even a follow-up game on the horizon, modding the games for replayability will become more widespread. However, gamers should cautiously proceed asNintendo is known for not liking its terms and services being broken.Breath of the Wildhas been out for a few years now, and despiteTears of the Kingdombeing an incredible sequel that improves virtually everything, the game still holds a special place in gamers’ hearts as it is the original that introduced them to that world.
