We've had regional variants of Pokémon ever since Sun and Moon introduced the concept to us back in 2016. But as of Scarlet and Violet, a similar phenomenon has recently been discovered — convergent species! They're Pokémon that might appear very similar to another, but unlike your typical variant form, the species are said to be separate and unrelated to each other. We currently have only two of these, Wiglett and Toedscool (but one resembling Magikarp was apparently scrapped before release).
Which of these ideas do you like more? Are convergent Pokémon basically just another regional form to you so far, or are there enough differences to set them apart? What kind of potential future do you think the concepts have?
