* [[Make My Monster Grow]]: Pretty much the whole point of Dynamaxing and Gigantamaxing.
* [[Mon Machine]]: The Dynamax Band which allows a Trainer to Dynamax their Pokemon and be able to use Max Moves. A Dynamax Band needs a Wishing Star to absorb energy for a Pokemon to Dynamax.
* [[Nerf]]:
** Several moves have been rendered unusable in ''Sword and Shield'', notably Return/Frustration, Hidden Power, and Pursuit, which have been widely used in competitive play or in-game.
* Figy, Iapapa, Wiki, Aguav, and Mago Berry go from restoring 50% of the holder's Max HP to 33% from Generation 8 onward.
* The power boost provided by Electric, Grassy, and Psychic Terrain has been reduced from 50% to 30%. Misty Terrain remains unchanged.
* Aegislash has its base Defense and Sp. Defense stat (and by extension, its Attack and Sp. Attack in Blade Forme) reduced to 140 in ''Sword and Shield''. Its [[Secret Art]], King's Shield has been hit by a nerf as well, going from reducing Attack by 2 stages if it makes contact to only 1 stage.
* [[Nice Hat]]: As per Pokémon tradition, the player protagonists all wear hats.
* [[No Export for You]]: An in universe example, Dynamaxing (and by extension, Gigantamax) is a phenomenon that's only exclusive to Pokemons found in the Galar region.
Line 50 ⟶ 55:
** Max Knuckles and Max Ooze have reduced power when compared to other Max Moves as they can increase the user's side Attack and Sp. Attack, respectively. Dynamax also immediately removes the user's Substitute to prevent them from soaking hits or blocking status moves with it.
** Notably, Zacian, Zamazenta, and Eternatus are unable to Dynamax. Other Legendary Pokémon don't have the same Dynamax restrictions as the aforementioned Pokémon.
** ''Isle of Armor'' features move tutors that teach Pokémon moves not present in the base game. Aegislash, Mimikyu, and Dragapult are unable to learn Poltergeist as they are some of the most used Pokémon in competitive play throughout their history. Similarly, the Guardian deities cannot learn the terrain moves (Rising Voltage, Expanding Force, Misty Explosion, and Grassy Glide) from the move tutor, as they would have wreaked havoc with their surge abilities immediately summoning their respective terrain.
* [[Old Save Bonus]]: A new feature with SwSh is that if one played [[Pokémon Let's Go: Pikachu and Pokémon Let's Go: Eevee]] and [[Pokémon Quest]], the game data will unlock a fancy backgrounds and frames for the gamer's League Card and a special
* [[Pop Star Composer]]: [[Toby Fox]] composed a track.
* [[Precious Puppy|Precious Puppies]]: Yamper
