Pokemon Sword And Shield Launch Guide: Where To Get The Double Pack Including Both Games

By ESR on 27 noiembrie 2019

Pokemon Sword and Shield, the next wave of Pokemon games from Nintendo, are out now on Nintendo Switch. The pair of RPGs mark the first time the mainline series has appeared on a home console rather than a portable console like the Game Boy or 3DS, making them a big deal for Pokemon fans who have been following the series for a long time.

In her Pokemon Sword and Shield review, Kallie Plagge wrote, “In collecting, battling, and exploring, Sword and Shield cut out the bloat and focus on what makes these pillars of the Pokemon games so captivating in the first place. You’re not held back by overly complicated back-end systems or hoops to jump through; from the outset, you can start wandering the Galar region, seeing its new Pokemon, and trying out its new battle strategies with very little in your way. This leaves you free to enjoy what Pokemon is all about, and that makes for an incredibly strong showing for the series’ proper debut on Switch.” The game earned a 9/10 from GameSpot.

Now Playing: Pokemon Sword And Shield Differences And Exclusives Explained

If that kind of praise piques your interest, we’ve rounded up everything you need to know about getting your copy, including what you can snag if you can get Pokemon Sword and Shield on launch day, before some of the bonuses disappear. There are tons of options, and with it being launch day, editions and prices are in flux; Amazon and Walmart briefly had a $20 discount on the Double Pack that got you both games and a special bonus, but that deal quickly sold out.

Pokemon Sword And Shield News & Guides

  • Pokemon Sword & Shield Eevee Guide: How To Get Every Evolution

    Pokemon Sword and Shield brings trainers to the Galar Region, introducing a new generation of Pokemon, battle mechanics, legendaries, and a revamped Pokedex. As in previous games, you 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.

    Sword and Shield introduces 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.

    As was the case in Sun and Moon’s Alola region, the Galar region has its own variants of classic Pokemon, such as a very dapper Weezing and black-and-white Zigzagoon. Sword and Shield also features new rivals, 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.
