The identity of this new creature will be announced on December 27; but CoroCoro magazine tells us what this Pokémon will be like.
The Japanese monthly magazine CoroCoro, which has used to advance the innovations of the Pokémon universe for five years, among other licenses, has shown in scoop the complete silhouette of the new singular Pokémon that we will meet on February 27, the International Pokémon Day, for Sword and Shield.

We will meet the new Pokémon on February 27
As The Pokémon Company advanced, the Japan Anniversary Association granted the right to that day to be considered Pokémon Day in Japan for its influence. That day Pokémon will turn 24 and celebrate it by revealing the (first) singular species released during Generation VIII; because we do not know if there will be more than one or if it will correspond to her, like Meltan (which does not appear as Generation VII Pokémon despite being launched during that period). In addition, that Pokémon will appear in Pokémon Coco, the next canon movie of the saga that will be released in July in theaters in Japan.

We do not know the name of this new Pokémon, nor its types, but it is not a legendary Pokémon. It never hurts to remember that legendary and singular species are not the same. For example, those recently revealed on the occasion of the Expansion Pass, such as Kubfu or Calyrex, are legendary.
This other Pokémon falls into the category of Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Deoxys, Phione, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Victini, Keldeo, Meloetta, Genesect, Diancie, Hoopa, Volcanion, Magearna, Marshadow, Zeraora and Meltan.
Most generations used to have only one singular Pokémon; however, as of Generation IV, V, VI and VII have always had more than one.
