I dunno if it's like that but there definitely seems to be more than one wild area at least based on the variety of terrain shown

Looks like sentai stuff, especially with those legendaries.
No, it's just the Era bubble. Go on twitter, everyone is probably celebrating because it looks really fun.
probably so the single player and multiplayer content are kept separate
I was going to get Shield, but that wolf is SO bad. Now I have to convince my brother to swap with me so I get the good dog.
Well, it looks good - they are really going in on the Zelda BotW angle. They even had similar music cues when they showed the field.
The dynamax battles look like a stupid gimmick. No idea why that has to be in there, when it looks like the game would be easily standing on it's own otherwise.
I think I'm in. Tried Let's Go and really didn't like it. Hopefully they'll have some true rivalry in the story this time. Everyone was way too nice in the remake.

If it's like other Pokemon games the only difference is each version will have exclusive Pokemon.
Gamefreak seriously needs to stop introducing shit then dropping it.
Megas were fine, Z-moves and dynamax is fucked.

Dynamax is just Mega Evolution, but shittier. It's not permanent and it doesn't even give you a new Pokémon design. Meh.
Dynamax is just the Pokémon Go effect. And the legendary Pokémon aren't that impressive, but we've already seen that coming with the logos, so I'm hoping to find other "cooler" legendaries in the game.
I loved the new Pokémon, and as I said, they would re-use similar concepts of already known Pokémon: Mareep / Jumpluff

Looks really cool! I quite like the new Pokemon designs they showed off! The crow is especially cool. Also they didn't even show that many returning Pokemon, but I liked all of their choices, really nice to see Pancham again for example.
Dynamaxing seems kind of like a further generalization of the Totem Pokemon in Sun and Moon, which I liked a lot. I wonder if it'll be feasible to beat the game without dynamaxing yourself? I think I'll try if only for the additional challenge.

Imagine having a gigantic football stadium trying to see a fight between two Caterpies.
What about Wailord
There is only overworld Pokemon in the Wild Area.
See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osoPtXbAUUc at 29.14 for confirmation of NO OVERWORLD POKEMON on regular routes.

how come?
i hope it's random in normal areas, with one big area (the free camera one) where they're visible. that's the best scenario imo.
I'm looking at it like Zelda 64. You have a central open area and then once you leave it it goes back to "dungeons" (old Pokemon style).
Megas were too exclusive, at least now we can have a gimmick that affects all Pokemon rather than a select few.
In for Sword
At worst it looks like a harmless gimmick?
Same, I like it and I can understand not liking it but I don't understand whats so bad about this for people to say that they're out because of it lol

Literally the only thing we know so far are the different legendaries.
Looks pretty fun. I like the sword dog legendary. The shield dog is pretty cool too. The graphics look good and the Dynamaxing looks like goofy fun. I'm in.
Am not a fan of the boxarts at all, especially the Shield Wolf, but god, I love that the legendaries are wolves. It was in the logos all of this time. I am a bit iffy of the Shield one, but I think it will grow on me.
which are?? sorry, I missed the direct, at work right now
Looks good. Glad to see some free roam areas with Pokemon walking around. I may be in the minority, but I like Shield doggo more than Sword doggo. Anyone also notice they never said play with your friends online? Is this another Mario Maker 2 situation?
+New Pokemon look great.
+Open world area with roaming Pokemon and free camera is a great step forward.
+Raid battles could be fun.
-Legendaries are hilariously bad.
-Literally wtf is that box art.
-Dynamax is just another lame once per battle gimmick like Mega's and Z-Moves.
I wonder if this will be the most one sided selling gen with how ugly that shield wolf is.
