Pokemon Sword and Shield announced

Sakitoshi · Feb 27, 2019

I see that they went full rewind and are using the tried and tested formula. not sure about that, I mean the changes in sun/moon weren't what people expected and all that, but going back to the old formula will only stagnate the series like before.
it shows that they are struggling finding a pair of names by now, not no mention pokemon designs, those starter pokemon are the same basic design altered just enough to make 3 slightly different creatures.

at least I can always count in that the pokegirl will be cute.

Which significantly decreased my enjoyment of the game. I liked motion in Skyward Sword, because it felt real. This, feels fake and annoying.

This might actually get me to play a Pokémon game.

Can you please add a poll for the starter choice ? I'm curious to see which one people like.

Yeah, the PokeBall throwing is fun for a spin-off, but it really isn't for a main title. I find the random encounter to be pretty dated. At least it's better than the old Final Fantasy, but still a pretty dated system.

haha this time i wont get the pokemon ban, learned some things in the 3ds lifetime.

So the region is basically Germany but upside down?

Well Austrian would fit as well

Exaltys · Feb 27, 2019

The Pokemon get weirder and weirder looking each game. So happy the annoucnement was a NEW game for the Switch and a new mainline Pokemon game at that. I'll get this on release for sure.

Both games will take place in the Galar region which will have old and new Pokemon. Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble are the starters' names. Wild Pokemon battles are back. Worldwide release planned for Late 2019.

UK Direct Link

Although the fire Pokémon looks nice and Smash bros is great, nintendo won’t make me buy a switch until I see a Sinnoh remake. LISTEN NINTENDO: SINNOH REMAKE OR NO BUY!
