During the Pokémon Direct, Tsunekazu Ishihara, President and CEO of The Pokemon Company, revealed two new Pokémon games have been revealed: Pokémon Sword and Shield for Nintendo Switch.
It will be released simultaneously worldwide in late 2019.

Junichi Masuda will be the producer on Pokémon Sword and Shield, while Shigeru Ohmori will be the director.
The new region is called Galar Region. The region is an expansive region with many environments—idyllic countryside, contemporary cities, thick forests, and craggy, snow-covered mountains. The people and Pokémon live together in this region, and they’ve worked together to develop the industries here.

The Grass-type starter is called Grookey, Rabbit Scorbunny and Water Pokémon is Sobble

I can't wait for this game!!! I'm definitely going to save what I can for a Switch! Graphics are amazing, like the designs of the pokemon, trainers, and region! A bit disappointed it isn't connected to Kalos but oh well maybe next time!

But I can't wait to play this! Which one will I choose? Don't know yet!

For a Pokémon game the graphic is awesome!
I want to know more about the new region and its Pokèmon but I'm really happy that this trailer showed a lot!

For now I'll choose Sword (blue colour, sword) but I'll see if the cover mascotte is cool or not :yeahyeah:
For the starter.... for now I like Scorbunny but like always, I'll choose who to pick knowing its the final evolution :yesyes2: :sisi2:

You really love Kalos, right?
Well... I have read a rumour that Game Freak won't do a game with 2 regions anymore so Galar and Kalos won't be in the same game (or in a post game)... they can be near in the Pokémon World map but I don't think we will go there (the official map shows only Galar, nothing about Kalos)
Sincerely I don't care anymore about Kalos only because we got new regions (Alola and now Galar)

It's my favorite region... Honestly it's really disappointing if that's true... Alola was ok but I wasn't too crazy about the games honestly.
