Potential News Dates (Comments May Contain Spoilers!)

[KiranTheWitch]

No more teases, just give us actual information to satiate us one more month before the games come out.

Watch them just completely avoid starter evolutions and Impidimp. Again. I'm excited for these 14 hours to pass, but also am not expecting much.

Shots will be fired

 

[Cute Charm]

Theres a a couple new galar forms for quillfish and another for the pyroar line.

Called it in the rumor thread. That emblem or...whatever was literally just a Quillfish.

People take literally everything to be clues, I swear.

 

[Lunala]

I really hope that they reveal multiple things, not just starter evolutions. I want to see new Pokemon that aren't the starter evolutions, new Galarian forms/evolutions, or both.

Regular Quilfish has already been seen, so this is dead on arrival.

 

[KiranTheWitch]

Does anyone think we will see a capybara Pokemon? 増田さん posted a lot of pictures about it last year and this year.

Apparently, it translates to ‘There is a lot of information today!’; so it appears they might open the floodgates.

He might be also referencing to the end of the embargo later on, though it should be on Thursday.

 

[Myth]

Called it. They're close to the dead line anyway, the game will be probably leaking by the beginning of November. This could be one of their last chance to show things they prefer to show by trailers.


This is the promotional art used for the opening of the Pokémon Center London later this week.

Spoiler

From the way I see it, it would be weird if the Pokémon that were there weren't in the game. Similarly, it seems plausible to expect TPC's product/marketing team to know which Pokémon will be in the game, and that they have made use of that knowledge.

So I guess Castform, the elemental monkeys, and the Psyduck, Scraggy, and Pidove lines may have been confirmed. And Roserade, sorry @Darkrai8674

But the question is: does this mean that we will not have any eeveelution this time?

Pidove had been confirmed a while ago, but it would confirm Mewtwo !

 

[TheElderKing]

I’d say if tomorrow is kind of a big info drop, between the trailer and stream, if there won’t be an eeveelution in neither, there won’t be one in the games.

Game Freak: We wanted to include Pokemon that made sense for the setting

Also Game Freak: Mewtwo, created in Kanto and residing in Cerulian Cave, should fly across the ocean to Galar

To be fair, with that reasoning all legendaries would be cut, and I Didn’t think that would happen.

But yeah, it clashes with their reasoning.

 

[blitzle stan]

Mewtwo might be there due to detective Pikachu releasing this year. It was a popular part of the overall Pokémon brand, and this Pokémon center isn’t specifically SwSh promo right?

 

[dvor]

I mean, mewtwo better be in the galar dex since mew is in too

I know this is an extreme stretch, but wasn't Mary Shelly, Frankenstein's writer, from London? I'm only saying this because the monster might have been one of Mewtwo's inspirations.

Same, like I do really want starter evos, but I also love seeing brand new Pokemon or Galarian forms, so I definitely hope we get to see at least one new pokemon. Would really love for it to be a brand new one. Gimme something crazy.

I definitely think legendary typings are possible too.

That'd be pretty cool, but I'm pretty skeptical of the idea. I think it's just getting in because it's so iconic, and to fill the missing Mew duo half.

The artwork is seemingly not focused on Sword and Shield due to, unless I am missing one somewhere, the absence of any Gen 8 Pokemon in the illustration!

To be fair it would make as much sense as it appearing in a random cave in Kalos in X and Y.

 

[TechSkylander1518]

True, but at leasy XY also let you transfer any other unlikely Pokemon in.
