The beginning of eighth generation of Pokémon games, to see 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: exactly which ones are not known, however. 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.
