    It's a downscaled, compressed, and slightly touched up screenshot, but it's still a screenshot. The blotchy low-res gress texture makes that easily apparent.

    That being said, it isn't indicative of anything. The carby is a bit more iconic than the lame primal egis, so it's possible (probable?) that they just used GM powers when taking the screenshot to summon a carby instead, since it is a promotional image after all.

    That might be what I'm seeing then. It just didn't look right to me.

    I'd call it false advertisement. I can see the budding new summoners now...
