Okay, we got a design reveal but I'm like so confused about the name lmfao

I wouldn't say that it has a major impact on them, especially for English speakers because this is specifically about the Chinese name, so I'll put my name ramblings under a cut for those who wanna read it lol

You can see their English name is "Rosy Python Cookie" (it's in tiny text above their Chinese name) which makes sense to me

But their Chinese name, "白离饼干 (bái lí bǐnggān)" doesn't translate to anything similar to that

Now bear with me because my Chinese is pretty rusty so I don't know a huge variety of meanings, but I do know what all these characters mean generally

"饼干" is cookie, so obviously that makes sense and there's nothing weird there

But then "白" is typically used to refer to the color white and "离" is a verb meaning to leave

I tried looking into other meanings of the characters or even if "白离" means something specific but I couldn't find anything

I also scrolled through the comments on the post and it seems like even the native players are confused by the name too

So I'm not sure what that's about??

I looked at the post pretty recently to when it was posted so maybe it was a mistake or something and they'll change it later but I have literally no clue lol

I'm like 99.9% sure that's gotta be the next Divine Beast (the Chinese version Legends)

There are obviously added details, but it shares primary features with the dragon

Additionally, they had put this in an event calendar they had posted

The eye has that magenta color associated with the dragon and also looks very similar to the eyes on this image from Soaring Snake's release countdown

If it somehow isn't the dragon, I guess I'll have to reevaluate my expectations of how they release Legendaries 😔

#velvet speaks #rosy python cookie #i'm still gonna refer to them as a dragon #python is a type of snake but like it's also sometimes used to describe serpents and dragons #i'm also thinking maybe they wanted to save the '(ingredient) dragon cookie' name for the five main dragons #but that's just my thought lol

#velvet speaks #i wonder if the divine beasts will be added to the english version #they hinted at the chinese exclusive content existing in the english version universe with the osmanthus sisters and camellia #and even giving us a teaser of soaring snake #but maybe we won't know until after the dark enchantress and beast arc #we'll just have to see lmao
