Types Not Available

With the game transition from Version 2 to Version 3, Ancient Pokémon were replaced with Metallic Pokémon. This change made it currently impossible to obtain the Ancient version of Sandslash and every other Pokémon.

It is unsure whether these will be seen in the game again but development shows no interest in ever bringing them back.
