I'm not sure how I feel about the starter evos yet, I dont hate them but they could've been a lot better. I love so many of the other new pokemon that i'm tempted to ditch my starter

something like these wouldve been better


im sure the starters will grow on me eventually

I really love Scorbunny and Grookey's final forms.

It’s been a while since I’ve picked the grass starter but I might be converted this time around

apparently thats all of them now, the full dex has leaked.. that icecube penguin was the last one!

I hope we get at least a few more galarian forms

bye @ shuckle and delibird making the game yet they cut the iconic Jynx

Yeah there really aren’t that many new ones compared to previous gens. Seems to not really justify cutting half of the dex.
Also, all three starters are staying as monotypes which I’m not a fan of.

Still, I’ve preordred and I am perched.

I'm not too bothered about the pokedex thing, I never liked it when they tried to cram every pokemon into a region anyway.

Yeah, the pokedex being limited doesn't bother me, before Diamond/Pearl, it was impossible for me to get any pokemon not on the version I was playing anyway so it's not a deal breaker for me.

Which versions are we all getting? I'm gonna treat myself to the double pack but will be playing Sword first, if any shield players need any Sword exclusives, let me know.

I preordered shield like months ago so I assume thats still happening lol

I read that the corsola is a version exclusive so if thats true I hope shes in shield (ill probably end up buying sword too)

I’m probably gonna go for Shield first too, the doggo looks much nicer for that one

I’m getting sword. Perched to battle y’all

Just ordered Shield, Glarian Ponyta swayed it for me :dazzler:

Remember, if you want to do any online stuff, you'll need a Nintendo online subscription. I'll have to remember to renew mine since I let it time out quite a while ago.

It looks beautiful :flutter:

I’m disappointed there aren’t any new Eeveelutions though

I just want it now

Mines being dispatched tomorrow, hopefully it comes tomorrow as well

Where did you guys order from? I've ordered at game but don't think I'll get it till Friday as game don't seem to send early.

Hi Barry

Good news! We just wanted to let you know that we are now starting to process your pre-order and it will be dispatched the day before release via the delivery method below.

I’ve got mine from a game as well

I bet we get it Friday then.

I originally ordered on Amazon but I ordered from ShopTo this morning and thats the one thats been shipped.

Although I didn't cancel my Amazon copy so im gonna have to send that back :skull: might try and swap it for Sword

Are you getting the steelbook and figures too with it?

It comes with the steelbook, idk about the figures

its also only £42 on ShopTo for some reason

Mine hasn't shipped yet :worry: I will fume if I don't get it on Friday.

I think Shopto's version comes with a pair of orange prison looking jumpsuits to wear in game and a steelbook.

NOT an orange jumpsuit :skull:

galarian chav realness

This was gonna be my first pokemon game but it only has 81 on meta idk if i’ll bother now

mine came :love:

it has over 400 all together though

I chose a female Scorbunny and called her Bunny

little annoying how exp share is just on permanently now.. makes training your main pokemon so much longer
