Pokémon Sword and Shield is the next installation in the Pokémon franchise bringing a new region, new Pokémon and updated features and releases on November 15th.
Sword and Shield will be set in the Galar Region, inspired by the UK, and introduces us to some new Pokémon including the games’ starters, Scorbunny, Sobble, and Grookey.
Z-Moves and Mega-Evolutions are a thing of the past as Dynamaxing becomes the new mechanic for the games. Dynamax allows your Pokemon to get bigger during battle.
