Pokemon Sword And Shield: Launch Guide With All Pre-Order Bonuses, Double Pack, Steelbook, And More

By ESR on 12 noiembrie 2019

Pokemon Sword and Shield, the latest pair of Pokemon RPGs from Nintendo, launch this Friday, November 15 on Switch. Sword and Shield are the first mainline Pokemon games to launch on a home console rather than a portable console like the Game Boy or 3DS. Since the pair of games were announced, we’ve learned quite a bit about them, including what kinds of special editions you can get where, and what you can snag if you pre-order Pokemon Sword and Shield ahead of the release date.

Pokemon Sword and Shield will bring trainers to the Galar Region, introducing a new generation of Pokemon, battle mechanics, legendaries, and a revamped Pokedex. As in previous games, you’ll have three starter Pokemon to choose from: Grookey, a grass monkey; Scorbunny, a fiery rabbit; and Sobble, a shy water lizard. The Galar region is scattered with towns where humans and Pokemon live and work together, and they include huge Pokemon gyms where people gather to watch epic battles between trainers and gym leaders.

Now Playing: Pokémon Shield – Meet Galarian Ponyta Gameplay Trailer

Sword and Shield will introduce an interesting new battle mechanic: Dynamax, an ability that turns your Pokemon into a giant form of themselves for three turns. Available to use once per battle, Dynamax boosts your Pokemon’s power and is triggered by a separate button, similar to Z-Moves. Outside of gym battles, you can also pair up with three other trainers (locally or online) to fight wild Dynamax battles against one giant Pokemon, which you can afterward catch. These encounters are called Max Raid Battles.

An August update also shared more information on Galar’s regional variant Pokemon, such as a very dapper Weezing and black-and-white Zigzagoon. New rivals were also revealed, including a distinctly punk group of individuals called Team Yell. A 24-hour livestream in October revealed another region-specific Pokemon: a Psychic-type Galarian Ponyta, which is exclusive to Pokemon Shield.

Now that we’ve gotten a closer look at Pokemon Sword and Shield and have a better idea of what to expect from the games, you might be ready to throw your money at Nintendo and pre-order your copy now. In addition to ordering a single copy, Game Freak announced you’ll be able to pre-order a double pack that contains both games. You can find everything you need to know about pre-ordering Pokemon Sword and Shield below.
