Mismatched airpods after ordering correct replacement?

I ordered a replacement airpod for second generation airpod pros.


I forgot the device and popped in my new airpod. When I tried to pair the device it tells me my airpods don’t belong to me and they are mismatched. The only allle support page I can find tells me to get a replacement airpod because I must have mixed mine up with someone’s. I didn’t. I ordered a replacement. Please help. I can’t connect to the airpods at all anymore.
