Media - Games - Nintendo Switch - Adventure

A new era of Pokémon is dawning on the Nintendo Switch system. As a Pokémon Trainer, you are invited to embark on an unprecedented journey in the fresh Galar region, and delve into the enigma surrounding the Legendary Pokémon Zacian and Zamazenta! The Wild Area awaits your exploration, a sprawling landscape where you have the freedom to control the camera. Engage in Max Raid Battles, where you will confront colossal and ultra-powerful Pokémon known as Dynamax Pokémon. Your adventure commences with the selection of one of three novel partner Pokémon: Grookey, Scorbunny, or Sobble. As you traverse through the Galar region, you will encounter both new and familiar Pokémon species. Engage in thrilling battles, capture various Pokémon, and trade with others to expand your collection. The Wild Area offers vast spaces for you to explore, with the added ability to control the camera and take in the breathtaking views.

Join forces with other players in your vicinity or connect online to participate in the innovative multiplayer co-op Max Raid Battles. Trainers equipped with the unique item, the Dynamax Band, have the ability to Dynamax their own Pokémon, amplifying their abilities in battle. Prepare yourself for the upcoming Pokémon journey in the Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield games.

The Pokémon Sword and Shield games introduce a host of new features that enhance the gaming experience. The Dynamax phenomenon, unique to the Galar region, allows Pokémon to grow in size and strength, adding a new layer of strategy to battles. The Wild Area, a first in the Pokémon series, provides an open-world experience, allowing players to explore and discover new Pokémon species.

The Galar region is rich in diversity, from the idyllic countryside and contemporary cities to the thick forests and snow-covered mountains. The people and Pokémon who live here work together closely to develop the industries in the region. Trainers will find a variety of Pokémon living in the Wild Area than anywhere else in the Galar region. The Pokémon you’ll run into will change depending on the weather and location, so there’s always a surprise waiting for you!

Pokémon Sword and Shield also introduce the concept of Gigantamax, which not only increases a Pokémon’s size but changes its appearance too. Only certain species of Pokémon can Gigantamax—and even among such species, only rare specimens will be able to. Gigantamax Pokémon become incredibly powerful and their G-Max Moves are a sight to behold!

The games also feature a cooperative four-player mode, where you can team up with friends and family to take on powerful Pokémon in Max Raid Battles. These are a truly collaborative effort, requiring strategic thinking and teamwork to emerge victorious.
