Following the 24-hour livestream of the Glimwood Tangle forest in Pokemon Sword/Shield game, various Pokemon were found during the duration of the livestream, culminating to the reveal of what appears to be Galarian Ponyta forms.
During the livestream, moments of such Ponyta were showcased, at times obscured by other Pokemon, like Impidimp, to build up to the reveal. At the end, viewers were able to get a clear view of these variants in the forest. Not much is known at this time whether these two Ponyta variants are indeed version exclusives or the reason as to why they appear to be different (as one has a tail and the other one does not).
In other news, it was revealed that on October 13th additional information regarding the next Pokemon anime will be revealed. There is also information releasing tomorrow (Oct. 6th) about the anime; however, it is not known what kind of information this will be, but will keep you guys updated when the news drops.
