The Galar version of Farfetch'd evolves into SirFarfetch'd "after experiencing many battles" according to Nintendo.

It's famous leek weapon turns into a powerful lance and shield after evolving.

Nintendo apologised for the glitch on their website saying "the incident was caused by a mischievous wild Rotom that entered our servers, causing a temporary disruption to our website. "

Farfetch'd will join Weezing and Zigzagoon (and it's evolutions) in getting a Galarian form - where their appearance would look different to normal, based on being from the Galar region.
