Pokemon Sword and Shield discussion thread (spoiler-free) [see staff post]
- Thread starter TheEchosOfTheCyborg
- Start date
Just to warn you guys, there are some streams of the game going around at the moment.
It doesn't look like they balanced the game around the Exp. Share always being on at all
it's era's fault tbh. yall started making threads for when the embargo is for different games and the marketing teams noticed. now even the embargo reveal is a marketing event.

How about avoiding drawing long term conclusions based on the early hours of the game?
Let reviewers talk about the game. This is otherwise what leads to misinformation.
I still think raids look great and will hopefully be a big part of having interesting challenges throughout the game. Same with hunting the wild area for shinies and other special Pokémon.
Ohmori even said that he got his ass kicked on the high difficulty Raids (5 stars).
My wife caught a shiny magikarp last week and she saw the different colour in the overworld.
Someone has been streaming the game for a couple of hours now.
Because you don't need reviews or to play the game to see based on the stream that the leveling curve (at least in the early game) is way too forgiving
Is there some kind of indication that an overworld Pokémon is shiny in Let's Go? (besides the different color, obviously)
I guiess I am the odd duck, but I have always found pokemon to be supper easy.
I hope not, especially not coming from people drawing hilarious conclusions based on the streaming of the very beginning of the game. We were doing good here.
If its on switch 2 if not then I don't think its gonna be big upgrade.
Despite any complaints I've seen, I'm still super excited to play these games, new Pokémon games always feel like an event and playing them along with other people is a joy. They are never mechinally deep and usually pretty easy but they're just warm and comforting to play.
Is this based on gameplay you've seen or just the leaks?you lovely folks are in for a treat with this one
Can we not? Leave that shit for another thread. Y'know, one not marked spoiler-free.
So business as usual lol
This spoiler-bombshelter is looking like this by now:
I'm so tired. I get that people are mad and upset, but I don't see why the hell they have to go around preaching to everyone about how mad and upset they are. Let people enjoy things, it's not that hard.
Sorry guys, thought spoiler tagging some impressions would be alright.
Removed.
Sword and Shield are the devil don't you know. These preachers are doing the lords work.
Some just can't take that they're a vocal minority and feel like they need everyone to join their cause.
Like... a few weeks after the game hits. I'll make a real thread when the game hits.
Do you know there's already an in game online tournament taking place right after the game hits? lol
If you listen to the main theme backwards, it's actually a ritual to summon Satan himself!
I'll have to get to work really breeding and such to get prepared for it.
Sounds hype... but it won't be more hype than the Tournament I'm gonna run :D
Maybe not. Maybe you'll get a squad that destroys everybody on Era with ease lol
