The beginning of eighth generation of [[Pokémon]] games, to seereleased worldwide release on November 15, 2019.
 
So far, it is known that the games take place in the Galar region, based roughly on the United Kingdom (especially Scotland). In terms of design, it is more similar to [[Pokémon X and Y]], leading some to assume that there is a connection between the two games.
 
More controversially, it was revealed in June 2019 that some Pokémon from older games will not be present in the new games:. exactlyA whichfull oneslist areof notPokémon known,that however...Until''were'' leaksremoved andcan dataminersbe discoveredfound which[https://serebii.net/swordshield/unobtainable.shtml oneshere]. There is also a new feature called 'Dynamax' which enables a given Pokémon to increase greatly in size and power, but only in a certain area, and the previous features of Mega Evolution and Z-Moves are no longer included.
 
For these reasons, the opinion of fans as of now on the game is mixed.
 
In January 2020 the announcement was made that DLC 'Expansion Pass' will be released for the game in two parts: The first is called Isle of Armor and the second is called Crown Tundra, and include new Pokémon, characters and areas. They are not a third version, however.

It gets even worse a few seconds later when Sophia tells you Bede's past, how he was an orphan whose literally owes Rose his life. To make it worse, the whole ''reason'' he destroys the mural is to please Rose by finding Wishing Stars.}}
