SwSh What was your favorite new Pokèmon that was released July 8?

Duralodon. It looks just derpy enough while remaining cool, and I still don't get the design inspiration so it's intriguing in that way, too.

Gigantamax Alcremie is awesome, but I'd like it way better if I could gigantamax any Alcremie I find in the wild instead of having to wait until I catch it in a max raid to raise it. That's a big issue I have with gigantamax in general... I hesitate to like the forms because I'll have to hunt (and ignore any Alcremie I find before then) to use it.
 
As in July 8th, Alcreamie surprisingly. It's just super cute to me and I don't like dessert pokemon normally.
I do like all the pokemon they have released so far.
Some of my Tops are Drednaw Wooloo Yamper Duraludon Alcreamie (of course)
 
Rolycoly. It reminds me quite a lot of Beldum, and I absolutely love that Pokémon and its evolutions. Here's to hoping that it evolves.
 
Yamper gives me Pikachu-clone vibes even though it is clearly not an electric rodent. But it's nonetheless cute and I like it.

I was kinda meh about Rolycoly at first, but I also kinda like it. Although I'm hesitant about what the wheel might imply for its evolution.
 
Rolycoly was hard for me to like at first based on its 2D art. I had trouble seeing the wheel at first and thought it looked too much like part of the Roggenrola line.

It’s an example of a mon that needs the 3D model to flesh it out and really shine, and I ended up really liking it after all. Still sticking with Drednaw as my Rock-type though.
 
None. The bunch revealed was rather underwhelming. I might warm up to Rolcoly but it reminds me of Roggenrola a bit too much. I mistook Duraludon for a regional variant Gigalith at first.
Actually, in an idiotic fashion I initially mistook the entire Japanese trailer for a regional variant reveal- Rolycoly:Roggenrola, Duraludon: Gigalith, Alcremie: Slurpuff.

I like Yamper but I wish it had more visible tufts of fur and not a totally smooth plasticy surface.

This art of Yamper makes me like it a lot more:
