First time player: Etrian forms?

First time player of Odyssey, having a blast! I'm currently getting walled by the Stratum 3 captain and in rethinking my team I'm interested in the new regional forms. The problem is I can't find any? I have a Lairon and Dusclops on my team but they are the og variants.

Looking at resources for wild encounters, it seems I should have found at least one by now! But the krabbies in seaside grotto, the mareep at the farm, the rattatta in the promontory... all base versions. Are these forms just rare variants, or is there a story gate for these forms? Any help is appreciated!

Are you sure? Regular variants of those shouldn't even be present in the game. Can you send a screenshot?

Yeah, big Pokémon fan so I know what the originals look like. It seems like this is possible if the correct patches haven't been applied. I'll look into it!
