No no no, it's Litwick's dog.

Remember that scene from A Hat in Time where one of the crows talks about pets having pets, then asks you what the name of your pet's childhood pet would be?

This is that.

Voice-acting as well, when the games won't even bother for its more cinematic cutscenes that are clearly made to have voice-acting.

Of all the Pokemon, of all the times, it just HAD to be a ghost dog. 2 nights ago I had a dream where my (now dead) dog came to me. I cherished every moment of it knowing it was a dream, but then he left by walking through the door like a ghost. I woke up crying.

Now they just announced a ghost dog Pokemon way too soon for me. Why couldn't they have announced something else?! </rant>

A petpet

That said I'm a bit concerned cause I was kinda hoping to rock a Chandelure and I'm not sure what this dog implies regarding that (It blatantly had a Litwick on it's head)

Nah. Ghost pokemon and fucked up pokedex entries are an iconic duo

Also fundies aren't very smart and will label anything satanic if their pastor or some grifter tells them it is <_<

Yeah, that was my first thought too. That CGI looked damn good compared to anything they've ever put in the games. Imagine if we got a mainline pokemon game will beautiful, fully voiced cutscenes like that.

When their primary target is children under the age of ten maybe its time for them to make it less disturbing dex. Imagine on this situation where a concern mom ask her daughter why she didnt play with this ghost dog as much as other pokemon and the daughter daughter explain the disturbing dex entries that might scarred her experience of playing pokemon forever. Imagine billions of moms who was thinking maybe its good idea to not buy pokemon games in the future.

Pokemon is the most successful media franchise of all time, I think they'll be ok.

They were labeled "Satanic" by out of touch fundies who hates anything popular with the kids. Way before Pokemon started becoming slightly darker.

These same people said nothing regarding Digimon who has a literal Lucifermon.

Also, if freaking Houndoom didn't cause "millions of moms" to stop their kids from playing Pokemon, a ghost dog isn't going to.

To be fair the dex is often ignored when it comes to depiction of Pokemon. Hell, gen 7 had some heavy hitters like people actually going out there and killing Pokmon for being nuisances like with Sneasel entry. But if it gets too dark they ignore them like with most ghost Pokmon, in most depictions they're portrayed as cheerful and playful tricksters more so than a creature that eats your soul. In the trailer the girl reacted to the gengar and mimikyu like she stumbled upon a squirrel at night more than scary, soul sucking monsters.

This is something Ken Sugimori admitted to doing, here he mentions that depiction of Pokemon as friendly and charming take precedent even if they have "frightening stories" behind them.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/8/9/5/AARO5TAAD0W_.jpg
Of course if you look at the statements like Sugimori's above or James Turner talking about how a Pokmon should be seen as a friend and not scary or intimidating it's clear that they try to steer clear of those depictions. Even in the trailer the ghost dog doesn't act aggressive and the fate is not know. After all this is a series where the man who created it thinks of Pokmon being innocent and friendly like cats and dogs, in his biography he is very much all in the depiction of Pokmon as friendly, innocent creatures.

Just wanted to add to my post that what I said is very visible in the follow up to the trailer.
https://youtu.be/TOKBC11D0eI
Not only in depicting Greavard as cute but also the other ghost Pokmon in the trailer like the Ghastly getting excited over a ball like it's a dog. It's a very calculated image with Pokmon and as to why they're stingy with the way others depict them, in an interview the people who worked on detective pikachu said that they were told cuteness was very important.
