The 1st get Pencil has a lighting plug (male end) under the cap where an eraser would be on an old school pencil. Maybe this is to adapt the lighting adapter to USB-C? That is what it appears to be in the images on the Apple Store site. Previously you would plug the Pencil directly into your iPad to charge and pair it.

edit: Eww.... so not Apple here:

The USB-C to Apple Pencil Adapter is required to pair and charge Apple Pencil (1st generation) with iPad (10th generation). Your Apple Pencil plugs into one end of the adapter and the USB-C Charge Cable from your iPad plugs into the other.
So yeah, Pencil -> adapter -> charging cable -> iPad
