Do looking at the logos we will get 2 Wolf cover legends? I wanted a Wolf since forever. Also maybe the third legendaru will be based on an axe or spear... Or crown

Please no. We need more text if anything, especially for when you play without battle animations. For several moves (for instance Guard Split) there is still no method whatsoever to see which pokémon was targeted, leaving you at a disadvantage if you play without battle animations because you simply lack information that you would have with the animations.

I mean, we're assuming its dual Wolf legends thanks to the figurehead on the Shield & Sword, but it could have nothing to do with it; it could just be part of the aesthetic & more medieval theme of 'Sword' & 'Shield' and 'Great Britain' (due to Arthurian Legend). Nothing's set in stone yet as far as Legendary pokemon go.

Cramorant is too cute for words!
I feel like our next info will be revealed with the new CoroCoro (probably more on the starters and maybe 3 other mons) and a trailer soon after that sometime in the first few weeks in March. Trailer probably coming in early mid March, like the 10th. I’m pretty sure we’ll get info March, April, & May.

Frankly....I'm more concerned about "armoured" evolutions. Especially if we get yet another form of Charizard and Mewtwo...Apparantly the legendaries are a Metal Snake and a Wooden Horse. If you believe this that is.
A wooden horse could be cool. Like Grass Type and all.

Peanuts aren't just a nut.
I should ask that person if they know whether or not customization is returning, lol.

Tbh I'm pretty glad that Pokemon waddling around on the overworld map like in LGPE doesn't seem to make a return. Looked so silly and artificial to me, since none of those Pokemon behaved like animals or really did much of anything.
There's really no reason why it shouldn't be returning, I think it's a series staple by now.
For a single third version: either Mirror or Jewel (based on the Japanese Imperial Regalia)

sword for sure, idk about a shield. i guess arthur could be the metaphorical shield against the dragon?
re: date points for new info- didn't we have at least some new info every month after the reveal of SuMo just by virtue of CoroCoro?
I was a bit excited for these games until I saw Masuda and Ohmori. I've lost a bit of hope. I'm really trying to be positive about this series going onward but this trailer makes me worried, just like with the original LGPE video. Idk if anyone's noticed, but trainers don't appear in the battlefield anymore like in Sun and Moon; which was honestly, a great change to make the field look less empty and show the relationship with pokemon and their trainers.
The region looks a bit linear, but I sort of doubt it will be. Looks like there may be a lot of backtracking. Also, I usually don't care too much about graphics, but these seem very underwhelming for what the switch has been shown to be capable of. The pokemon look great, but the overworld looks graphically underwhelming at times. I appreciate they're using more vibrant colors at least.
And lastly, really with the ice area towards the end? (I may be wrong) It's getting tiring to see GameFreak constantly save great ice-type pokemon up to the end.
Following pokemon don't return but I don't care too much about that. I imagine most will be bothered by it. I'm glad overworld encounters did not return, it was executed so poorly in Let's GO.
Kinda not excited for much other than the starters, sorta. They honestly look like fakemon. And their oddly too simple; nothing but shapes. They've all got spherical heads just to be cute. Hopefully more info will make me positive about the state of the series after the mess that was LGPE (by Masuda) and ORAS (by Ohmori).

^So much this!
Yeah I don't like to say it but I kinda agree. I think a couple of the fakes looked more better than these. Especially that platypus.
I think these starters kinda look like temtems (funny, since the platypus eventually became a temtem)
