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!










So apparently the method to evolve G-Farfetch’d is not to get 3 KOs in one battle but rather get 3 Crits in one battle. Good thing the Leek exists.
I have decided on my sobbles nickname when I finally get to start! Will be naming it Newt after Newt Scamander! Thank you Cosimo for the idea!
Your welcome! I added you as a friend. Did you accept? It’s Jeff
I’m still exploring the Wild Area near Motostoke, my team so far;
Scorbunny lv14
Rookiedee lv13
Yamper lv13
I have Nickit and Dottler too but they’re not really part of my team i only keep them until they’re evolved for the dex
Anyone want to battle? In the wild area, highest level is like 13
I’m going to have to wait till Pokemon Sword ships today… probably early afternoon… why is the wait so horrible!?! ☹☹☹
G.Gengar dex entry:
Sword:Rumor has it that its gigantic mouth leads not into its body, filled with cursed energy, but instead directly to the afterlife.
Shield:It lays traps, hoping to steal the lives of those it catches. If you stand in front of its mouth, you’ll hear your loved ones’ voices calling out to you.
Need sleep body won’t comply….
I haven’t gotten my games yet since I wont be able to pick them up in the afternoon but I wanna do raids with you guys when I can!
Sooooo, what do people think so far?
Team so far! I’m loving the game but feel rushed due to travelling home today so can’t enjoy it to the fullest. Intro is less of a slog than SM imo.
Oops, here’s the image

Roger is named for Roger Meddows Taylor, the drummer for Queen. Also his middle name fits the Grass-type.
Dean is named for Dean Ween, the stage name of one of half of Rock band ‘Ween’. You guys probably recognise them from singing Ocean Man.
Paranoid is named after the Black Sabbath song, but I might rename him to follow the band member theme or expand to a general music theme as he’s been a good teammate so far!
Mr. Cheeks was a total joke capture but he surprisingly carries his own weight? Skwovet and Greedunt are probably some of the better rodents stat wise, and now that I’ve started to invest in him I’ve dropped Gene the Zigzagoon at the moment. Just got him Seed Bomb so I don’t see him going away anytime soon.
Iron Man I barely use he’s just been in the party for so long he’s levelled up a lot. I don’t think I’ll use him tbh, Corvi is overrated.
Rollanda is filler.
Guys my FC: 6255-8607-3797
What’s everyone’s uniform number and why? I’m curious
905 – wedding day and day a dear one departed – Yours?
Oooo maybe I’l copy you and have my number be 123, which is my wedding date
Mine will be 126 cause that’s my birthday
317 cause I only like odd numbers and 3 and 7 are my fave numbers
420 because I am immature and choosing Grookey.
I don’t have it yet but when I get I’ll let you know
464
815
Cinderace dex number
So the data corruption glitch only happens on hacked Switches with exFat SD cards.
For those already playing, do you suggest auto save be turned on or off?
2 hours to go!!! Give me your strength!
Can’t pick up my game until 1pm, that’s 3 hours from now.
Anyone findthe child in Motostoke’s missing Minccino? cant seem to figure out where it could be.
Dang guess I’m not the only one unable to figure it out.
The best thing to come out of Galar

Anyone got any name ideas for Orbeetle or Greedunt? Right now they’re Paranoid the Dottler and Mr. Cheeks the Skwovet, but they’re growing on me a ton and they’ll be part of the team for at least a while longer.
Theme is rock and metal musicians. Roger the Grookey after Roger Meddows Taylor (Queen drummer) and Dean the Chewtle (Dean Ween, part of Ween). Thinking about renaming Paranoid after a member of Black Sabbath (it is their song after all) but very unsure on Mr. Cheeks.
LedZeppelin.
I just purchased Nintendo Switch Online so I didn’t have much use for my Friend Code, but here it is. SW-6574-0744-0702
I’m not that far into the game as I’ve only just arrived at Motostoke.
Ok, the start of Sonia’s theme sounds like the elder scrolls theme and I cant unhear it…
