Kantonian Moltres, the original fan favorite, is not the same as Galarian Moltres in type or look. With a black body and flaming crimson wings, the Galarian form is a dual-type Pokémon of the Dark/Flying types.

Galarian Moltres is described as having a “sinister aura” and having the ability to reduce its opponents to mere shadows of their former selves in the Pokémon Sword and Shield dex.
