Line 19:
* [[Expy]]: The camping mode is similar to [[Pokémon X and Y|Pokemon Amie]].
* [[Fictional Currency]]|[[In Game Currency]]: Pokécoins
* [[Fictional Sport]]: While the Pokemon League has always been a ''competition'' between trainers, it's clearly treated as a sport in Galar. Gyms are more like arenas (with audience), trainers wear jerseys, Gym challenges are more athletic, and the Gym Leaders and Champion even have sponsors! The villainous Team (well, if you can call them that) are more like a group of [[Football Hooligans]] who throw their support behind Marnie. Much to her chagrin.
* [[Food Porn]]: The Curry on Rice dish that gamers are encourage to make.

Line 38 ⟶ 39:
* [[Socialization Bonus]]: While camping, one can socialize with other real life trainers and their pokemon.
** A team of real life Poketrainers are needed to capture a single dynamaxed wild pokemon.
* [[The Rival]]: You've got ''three'' in this game, and each is a different type as far as rivalry goes:
** Hop is the friendly rival that the protagonist has known since childhood, energetic and exuberant almost to a fault.
** Bede is the far-darker rival, {{spoiler| a protege to the main antagonist, making him a [[Privileged Rival]] and a complete jerk.}}
** Marnie is the middle-ground. She holds no real animosity towards the protagonist, but has a competitive streak of sorts that causes her to see ''any'' opponent as an obstacle that has to be crushed.
* [[Rivals Team Up]]: In real life, gamers can connect online just to take down a wild Gigantamax pokemon.
* [[There Are No Tents]]: Averted. One can set up a tent and camp in the Galar wilderness, play with their team, and eat. It's even encouraged to meet other trainers whilst resting.
