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 I’m currently at school with a dead switch, and i have work tonight so I will most likely not be able to play until tomorrow 🙁 currently my team is:
Scorbunny (Dele) // Lvl. 11
Rookidie (Raf) // Lvl 11
Chewtle (Buckingham) // Lvl 9
I’ve only just completed the‘opening ceremony’ of the gym challenge so there a while to go before my team starts to build or change. But my final team is planned to be
Cinderance (Dele)
(G-)Corviknight (Raf)
(G-)Dreadnaw (Buckingham)
Eldegoss (???)
(G-)Grimmsnarl (???)
Amped-Up Toxtricity (???)
I understand that G-Max forms can only be caught through Max-Raids so ima have to wait and possibly replace my Pokemon 🙁 but it’s whatever, and of course my nicknames are all UK themed so that’s why they might look weird (Dele Alli is a soccer/football player in the UK that my dad likes, ‘Raf’ stands for Royal Air Force, Chewtle has buck teeth so Buckingham is a pun) but I like them. I haven’t come up with names for the others but will most likely once I catch them.
Really enjoying the game so far! Its a lot of fun, and I’m not even that far in. And I LOOOOOOOOOVE that you can hit the boutique the first town in!
So, for people who didn’t use le funny secks number or weedlmao for their trainer number, what did you choose and why?
I went for 026, Raichu’s Dex number.
Mine will be either 123 (wedding date) or 317 (fave numbers) or 329 (birthdate)
I just used a random number generator. I want my number to be special because I (my player) made the number special by achieving great things (my guess is completing the Gym Challenge and defeating Leon if the story doesn’t take a left turn like BW).
Got my game! Currently trying to get either a hasty naive or timid sobble! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a8568c981794595822710490a18086821d0d55a12c1d79da877383dc08bb0e03.jpg
Cool, there’s someone who has all three starters in the wild area
Hey zess, I don’t think I’m gonna be needing that Sobble, sorry for any confusion
God I hate the way Leon runs around like a douchebag
WHY IS GOSSIFLEUR SO SLOW
it has no legs
Trying to connect with friends in this game is awful
Absolutely
Me and Val spent 30 minutes trying and failing until we got it to work at random
I havent even face the first gym and my Scorbunny is evolved and level 23 lol
Watching the shipment tracking for my Sword and Shield… I wish you could like pinpoint exactly where it was and follow the truck as it goes until your package is delivered
That’s the worst… hope it comes soon!!
Me wasting two hours straight catching shiny snorunt
Just got my first badge
Carrot the Raboot (Lv. 21)
Mash the Corvisquire (Lv. 21)
So it takes a long time to get to the first gym. It took me 5 hours just to get to this point. The gym leader’s level also reflects this as it is our highest level first gym leader in the main series so far. So far the game hasn’t been grindy, of course there have been moments where I nearly loss a battle because either my Pokémon were a tad underleveled or due to type disadvantages. So far this playthrough has been a good experience for me.
Anybody hear if mew from pokeball plus can be shiny?
Any Pokemon surprised you guys so far?
I’m not even at Gym 1 and Skwovet is absolute nuts. I used it in a link battle with a friend, Stockpile + Sitrus Berry/Cheek Pouch shenans are fun
Can I change my uniform for the gym challenges? I bought a different one but I dont see how to change into it.
I’ve seen the counter to the left, but maybe try the changing room to the right that you automatically go into to change into your gym uniform
Yeah I cant interact with the changing room in the gyms. I can change into it in a boutique, but that also changes my normal outfit to the uniform. Maybe you have to wear the default uniform for gym challenges?
Apparently the gym uniforms you buy aren’t wearable in gyms, they’re just clothing 😂😂
I don’t feel well, might start tomorrow, but it’s here.

Wow, an early trainer with three Pokemon that isn’t a gimmick class. Almost feels like BW
You mean the 6 Magikarp dude.
It’s like the didn’t even try to make Hop’s animations different from Hau’s
