Pokemon Sword & Shield GENERAL DISCUSSION Thread [Spoilers]

[TheWanderingMist]

See that's the important thing! If it's a Pokemon that's been neglected for so long, why does it matter what region it comes from in the first place!

Because Kanto already got 15 Mega Evolutions and ALL the Alolan forms. Johto, Unova, Kalos have 8 Megas between them, and no regional forms. Kanto has enough, even though I'd like something like Kingler to get a new form, the other regions are constantly ignored in favor of Kanto.

@Orphalesion Seel and Dewgong. Doduo and Dodrio.

You know, for the people who were saying this was a terrible marketing strategy, I think about 15 pages have appeared here in the last 2 hours.

It has certainly got the fandom talking, that’s true.

 

[Orphalesion]

@Orphalesion Seel and Dewgong. Doduo and Dodrio.

With any luck, those two get something soon as well. Especially Doduo and Dodrio...such a cool concept, bogged down by the typical gen one execution.

Also I am not so enamored with galar ponyta. There are other region one pokemon that are even more forgotten . Like venonat. This forest seems like the perfect habitat for a galarza venonat

I'd rather have a totally new unicorn than a galar ponyta.

I thought I saw something move on the stick in the background

 

[Grey Wind]

I wish the stream was more exciting (it's a cute idea but incredibly boring lol), but I'm excited if we are indeed getting galarian Ponyta. Mythical forest horse is a cool concept, and the Ponyta line is a good pick for a new form.

I'm hoping it's pure Fairy or maybe Fairy/Ghost.

I've got ~ 1 hour left until I leave for dinner. Hoping something a little more substantial happens.

Weren't we supposed to get a Breloom around now according to that Nido king leak? And also wasn't Sonia supposed to be giving snippets of info?

I think that rumor has been debunked considering it is just us watching a trail cam without commentary for the past 6 almost 7 hours.

We're not. That rumor is officially dead.

 

[Ultra Beast Lover]

Wonder if there'll be a Galarian evolution along with the Galarian form. Rapidash seems pretty complete but I think it could evolve.

Sonia hasn't said a word the whole time, and outside Impidimp and Pikachu, nothing of actual interest has actually bothered to show itself fully on screen. That "leak" is fake.

 

[Orphalesion]

I was thinking that too...the eerie colours kinda make it look like Fairy/Ghost. And unicorns are illusive, and in modern fantasy they can sometimes blink in an out of reality... I think that would, in theory be enough for Fairy/Ghost.

On the other hand, the eerie colours could come from the Fairy type and it would be our first Fire/Fairy type, which would also be awesome...

Ah I'm just so excited for a Fairy unicorn tbh and that it isn't just Rapidash with a pink mane.

It'd be neat if they went the other way a did a Galarian prevo. Like you said Rapidash seems pretty complete.

This live stream is supposed to show the quantity of Pokemon in the galar dex?

Good. I knew Pedigree sounded too complicated to be true.

Not really? Not sure what gave you that idea.

 

[XanderCage]

No the stream is showing the pokemon that appear in this particular area of Galar.

 

[RileyXY1]

Good. I knew Pedigree sounded too complicated to be true.

And, it would've been completely useless unless they decided to fix their error and let Nidorina and Nidoqueen breed.

 

[sketchersmeargle]

Nope, just possible pokemon that can be found in the Glimwood Tangle Forest.
