The Pokémon anime makes the perfect platform to tease new Pokémon, and as a result, quite a few popular species made their debut in anime form first.
When a new generation of Pokémon is on the way, it's a natural marketing move to debut a few species early that are sure to be fan-favorites. While sometimes these new Pokémon appear in spinoff games or other media, the most common place for a brand new, never-before-seen Pokémon to make its pre-release debut is the anime.
9 Wynaut Wynaut made a very casual debut in the anime episode "Fangs for Nothing," where it simply caused some mischief for Team Rocket. Amusingly, though, Team Rocket never actually sees Wynaut, meaning this is one Pokémon that was only revealed to the audience, not the characters. Wynaut would go on to appear in a few more episodes as a recurring troublemaker, similar to Jigglypuff in the early days of the anime.
6 Lugia Lugia was the first Legendary Pokémon to appear in the anime before its games were released, as seen in Pokémon the Movie 2000. It also appeared alongside Slowking, another Johto Pokémon that was first revealed in the anime. Lugia is an interesting case in that it was primarily designed with guidance from Takeshi Shudo, the head writer of the Pokémon anime's early days, rather than by Game Freak itself, and thus was tailored to the movie.
