For a convex polyhedral model, vertices + faces = edges + 2 Every face is a triangle (3 edges) but every edge is shared by two faces, so edges = faces * 3 / 2 So the original identity simplifies to vertices = faces / 2 + 2 So, every new vertex increases the triangle count by 2

...unless Pokémon Sword and Shield's models have wacky Euler characteristics like the great stellated dodecahedron shown below. In which case, fair comment, an unwise move by the developerspic.twitter.com/zlIwycaJwO

Ottlekline is the first non-orientable Pokémon! Watch out for its nasty inversion attacks - you are arguably already inside of it

Flasket is the first Pokémon with an infinite number of evolutions, it starts as a blobby tetrahedron but then smaller tetrahedral pieces are added and removed recursively, making for a progressively more complex fractal body plan. It likes sunbathing
