>>29350617That's ignoring the fact they're supposed to be team preview images. Why would they need special team preview images in this format for Totem battles?
From all evidence, Totem intros are small cutscenes, not a cut-in with the dex sprite sliding in. There's also the fact that the kanto rats DO have gender differences, and it would make sense that a small handful of pokemon would still get some.
All that said, I'm banking on the Vikavolt not being a gender difference, but a form of some kind. The description constantly talks about it holding a Charjabug underneath it, so I'm hoping for something like that.
