Pokemon Sword and Shield

Cut all previous gen starters, but keep Charizard with its megamax

Big fan of a lot of the designs this gen. Some are duds (like uhhh, all of the starters) but a bunch are good.

Version exclusives:

Kinda mixbag

Huh, what the fuck's up with the white Corsola? Also, (what I assume is) two legendaries per cart?

[weeblord]

some new mons i love, some i really hate. Too much western cartoon influence on some of these for my taste, which I guess is understandable snce James Turner got promoted for this gen.

Spoiler:

The legendaries look much better without their steel stuff i must say

Spoiler:

Corsola is Ghost, its bleached coral. The apple dragon is a pseudo legend with a split evolution based on version.

Ghost/Water? Is this a first? Cool idea, really.

[weeblord]

Every gen im like I hope they come up with a way to make different Deerling/Sawsbuck seasons available so that I dont have to use the default spring which is the worst

gamefr*ck came up with the perfect solution, if theres no Deerling theres no problem! Based!!!

[Laserman]

Quit talking about them openly like that, god. Use spoiler tags.

Pokemon Sword and Shield details handy features, new items, Gigantamax Pokemon encounters, and first online competition

Frillish and Jellicent cry in the distance.

[Toa of Gallifrey]

And fire off a powerful Energy Ball

[Sesto]

ghost Corsola is cool and ice leader(?) is cute
shame about the rest of the shield exclusives but whatever. at least shieldless dog looks better than swordless dog

Any 'Mon past Hoehn (maaaybe Sinnoh) I only have a 50/50 odds of having heard of.

As you can understand that made post-game in ORAS... interesting.

I can forgive the mediocre designs of the starters, I can't forgive the monotype.

I think the exclusive Gen 8 Pokemon are most good.

Meowth get another variant and a replacement for Persian?

I don't know how to feel about the fossils aside that they seem to be suffering

Dragons are good. I like a lot apple dragon. I like Dragapult aside of probably it being a lastest game Pokemon.

Toxicroak of Galar is fucking cool.

There really was Galarian Farfetch'd.

Sword seems more like my type even if I won't buy the game.

Why the fuck Garbodor have Gigantomax? w-why the fuck is still alive?

Zamazenta looks better without the Shield.

Eternatus surpass the expectations.

I like a lot of the new Pokemon for Sword and Shield, but the sheer number of cuts just does not sit well with me. Fuck you, GameFreak. You truly betrayed my trust this time. Not even all the Kanto starters, and I thought you all were Gen 1 shills.

[weeblord]

it would seem a big batch of moves have also been thanos snapped. Mostly filler but Return, Pursuit and Hidden Power are pretty big losses, if true.

[Rafflesiac]

;_;

Fucking hell, those are huge losses. Then again, I heard some rumor that there are no EVs and IVs anymore? That might explain Hidden Power's loss.

[Rafflesiac]

lol at not being able to catch pokemon above a certain level

sword and shield, more like bad and worse

[SirGauoftheSquareTable]

IKR. Definitely not buying and waiting for a DPPt remake that addresses these bullshit issues.
