Linoone getting an evolution is an interesting twist since no previous regional variant got one. Since we didn't see Koffing in this, I think it's safe to say it doesn't get a Galar Form. Tophat wearing, facial hair/smoke Weezing is the funniest regional variant since Exeggutor. The only thing I don’t really like about this trailer is that there wasn’t anything that made me decide whether to get both games or the double pack since that’s the only thing that’s keeping me from preordering. Magnolia since he looks similar to both of them.Īlso, while recent events make Team Yell an obvious reference to the Pokémon fandom, I like that they’re actually meant to embody British punks & extreme sports fans since I’ve seen enough of the latter to know they act like that (this whole thing’s going to end up being one big coincidental meme like when they compared the Yungoos line to Trump). Marnie seems like she has a lot of potential, & I can’t help but wonder if Bede’s somehow connected to either Bea or Prof. So this is the closest thing I have to one of my Pokémon designs becoming canon!!Īs for the characters, I love how it feels like they’re putting new twists on Pokémon’s various tropes by giving us rivals at various ages, & how the Team Leader this time is both a girl & someone who’s the same age as the trainer. That being said, I may be even more excited about Galarian Weezing since its goofy design and Fairy typing remind me of the Alolan Koffing & Weezing I designed back in 2016. It just oozes personality & I think it’s now my new favorite Dark type!! (PS- I’m hoping that subtext comment’s a reference to Weebly’s Badger video) I already liked Galarian Zigzagoon & Linoone’s designs, but the fact that Linonne evovlves into a Punk Badger Gene Simmons Warrior Thing is absolutely amazing. Holy crap! I love everything about Obstagoon, and it’s hands-down the first Galar Pokémon I’ve geeked out over since Scorbunny. What complete nonsense will they think of next? stay tuned for whenever we get more news! So basically kinda like Pelago but with 50% more capitalism.Īnd that's all she wrote for now. Certain 'mon are better suited for certain types of unpaid internships jobs - but all of them will supposedly grow from the experience - and using the system often may lead to some rare items as prizes. They are often seen with Galarian Zigzagoon and are bound to be seven kinds of obnoxious in an attempt to disrupt anyone that might stand in the way of their personal idol's victories - and they almost seem to show up out of no where when she's around.įinally, not announced in the video trailer but announced on the official Sword/Shield website, is the introduction of the Poké Jobs system - which allows you to send your boxed Pokémon to the gulag assignments made available via Pokémon Centers. The experience gained while on the job will help Pokémon grow, and Trainers may even receive rare items as rewards. Team Yell, a gang of Foobaw Hooligans (keeping in theme with the Gym Challenge of Galar being Essentially FIFA) who would make even Team Skull cringe and mutter something about having some standards, yo. Trainers will find that certain Pokémon types are suited for specific jobs. “Trainers check for available Pokéjobs at the Rotomi in Pokémon Centers and send Pokémon directly from their Boxes to any job they accept. Lastly, the Pokéjob mechanic is something new. Marnie is one to keep an eye on as the new villans found in Galar seem to be a Marnie fan club, calling themselves Team Yell. We met Bede, a new trainer and we met Marnie. Morpeko has it’s normal “full belly mode,” and the “hangry mode,” which is me at times. The trailer does a stellar job in its short run time and introduces a few new things as well, namely the Galarian Weezing, Galarian Zigzagoon, and the form changing Pokémon reminiscent of Pikachu. Nintendo told their fans to get ready for an update on August 7 at 9:00 AM EST and boy was it worth checking out.įirst off, we were introduced to Galarian Forms of existing Pokémon, which if you played Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon, are similar to the Alolan evolutions.
