Just 1 day remaining until Pokémon Sword & Shield launch!
(depending on your time zone!)
The Path to Sword & Shield begins to draw to a close… The day is almost upon us… Countless trainers are almost ready to start their next Pokémon adventure and uncover the secrets, wonders and joys the Galar region has to offer!
We hope all of our readers are as excited as we are to get our hands on the game, just one more day until Christmas comes early this year! We’re back with a JungleASKS just in time for the games releasing and our question for you this time is:
What are you most excited for on your adventure in the Galar region?
Maybe you can’t wait to discover some of the new Pokémon found in Galar? Perhaps you’re filled to the brim with excitement about taking on the Galar League? Or are you just excited to cook hundreds of delicious curries for you and your Pokémon?
Please let us know down in the comments below, or follow us on Twitter and use #JungleASKS to tweet us. If you’re more of a chatter, you can join our Discord channel and tell us there!
Please remember to respect that some people choose not be spoiled on these games! Be respectful in our comments and understand that opinions are just that: opinions. See you all tomorrow for The Path to Sword & Shield launch day special!
Don’t forget that the discussion continues in our Discord server as well!










I’m most excited to meet all the new Pokémon I’ve not seen yet! Have mostly remained spoiler free and I’m so proud of myself for it! Can’t wait to go on a journey with sobble tomorrow and to of course catch an Impidimp! Galar here I come!
Currently hard resetting to get à good ID number(because my OCD demand so) in sword and it takes up to 10minutes to discover it. It’s sun and moon all over again 🙁
Good luck! Hope you get one soon!
Also want to add a thank you to the mods about the no spoilers thing! Don’t want to have to leave the site!
The final Countdown for Sword & Shield has Begin!
Bede is secretly the Queen of Galar and uses Yampers as spies for the true evil team, Team Hush. They want to ban Pokemon battles so they can have quiet high tea again.
Team Yell are secretly good guys working for Marnie who prefer coffee, and as such don’t want tea to become deadly important to Galar again.
Polteageist is actually the Cosmog to the secret fourth legendary, Earlgreytest. Sound/Cosmic-type.
You had me until sound/cosmic

All I want to do is get my Jolladamt Grookey and make sure the very first pokeball I throw is at a Steam Engine Rolycoly
Then catch anything that moves
Is Impidimp version exclusive because that changes things.
Got my Good ID Number (875094, wish it started by 9 but it’s still a good one), now looking for a good nature Grookey ^^! Then I might try and see what pokeballs are available to get my Rookiedie and go get him at the Woods and give myself a make over. Then i’ll call it a day.

Hmmm…. The Indeedee forms are version exclusives… Male in Sword and Female in Shield…
really?
Off topic: For those who are characters in my comic book, have you all received you own character portrait gift? If not, let me know because I’m going to work on the comic book and do some designs for @fairyforgetful:disqus ‘s story
Coalossal
Gigantamax Raid Battle is only natively in Sword, but can be shared through playing with others
Even though I don’t like Eiscue or whatever it’s called Id rather have that than Stonehenge guy that looks like Art from Monsters University
So my plan hit a major snag
I went to Gamestop to scope out the competition and asked about the midnight release
at 6pm they will take your pre-order and give you a pre-screening ticket for your placement in the evening and I have a doctor’s appointment at 6:15 and I very much need to verify my place asap
I NEED SOLUTIONS PEOPLES
Do we still not know The typing for the Stonehenge pokemon who’s name escapes me right now?

Serebii’s list of version exclusives
https://www.serebii.net/swordshield/exclusives.shtml
Surprising ones we didn’t get confirmed before are Scraggy/Croagunk, Gmax Machamp/Gengar, Gmax Coalossal/Lapras
Do ZZ have signature moves?
Behemoth Blade/Bash
They’re the exact same. 100 Base Power Steel moves that deal double damage to Dynamaxed Pokemon.
Alcremie evos

You gotta learn MK11 combos to evolve Alcremie.
So Vikabolt now evolves with a thunder stone. I guess this means no more Location based evolutions…. which I actually kinda like. Now if only we could get rid of Trade evolutions.
Altho, they don’t seem to have done away with them entirely as Yamask has a really weird location based and damage received requirement for it’s evolution.
My throat is on fire and I have such a bad headache. And my nose is all runny! If I’m not better tonight I’m staying home sick tomorrow and playing Shield in bed all day
