New Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Theory Points to Peach-Legendary Inspired by Japanese Folklore

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet theory suggests a new "peach-like" Legendary related to Ogerpon and the Loyal Three based on Japanese folklore.
Evidence includes the Loyal Three's classification as "Retainer Pokemon" and visual links to Momotaro legend.
Momotaro was a boy born from a peach who befriended a dog, monkey and pheasant to fight demons. This parallels the new Pokemon.
Potential theories are the new Legendary is related to Glimmet/Glimmora or connected to the character Kieran.
Fans expect answers when the next DLC, The Indigo Disk, releases later this year.
