Pokemon Sword And Shield: Every Pokemon In The Trailer

Gotta Catch At Least These Ones


Pokemon Sword and Shield have finally been revealed, and we now know what the eighth generation of Pokemon games will look like on Nintendo Switch. The reveal trailer showed the new Galar region, which appears to be inspired by England, the Gen 8 starters, your trainer, and a number of Pokemon.

You never know with a new Pokemon game what old Pokemon might make an appearance, so we've rounded up all the Pokemon from the trailer here. Many of the Pokemon are from more recent games, including Sun and Moon, while a few are older. Almost all of them were shown in battle.

It's worth noting that the trailer appears to show the return of Pokemon's traditional battle style in wild Pokemon encounters, as opposed to the Pokemon Go-inspired catching mechanics seen in Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee. We didn't see Pokemon in the overworld, like in Let's Go, or even following you around.

Pokemon Sword and Shield are releasing worldwide in late 2019. Be sure to see our story on the new Gen 8 starters for more details, and maybe tell us what you think these mysterious symbols are so we can all start theorizing.


Pikachu


Naturally, Pikachu is the first Pokemon we see in the Sword and Shield trailer. The female trainer is seen sneaking in the grass, leading to this wild encounter.


Minccino


Minccino is a normal-type Pokemon introduced in Gen 5.


Wishiwashi


First introduced in Sun and Moon (Gen 7), Wishiwashi is really weak alone but can transform into a much scarier fish. We see the male trainer catching Wishiwashi in the traditional style.


Grubbin


Another Sun and Moon Pokemon, Grubbin is a small bug who eventually becomes a bigger, electrified bug.


Hoothoot


Hoothoot is a Gen 2 throwback and a good owl.


Zweilous


It's a bit hard to see, but Zweilous is fighting Hoothoot in the trainer. It's a dark/dragon Pokemon and it's great.


Flygon and Braviary


Sorry, this is the best screenshot I could get. On the left is Gen 3 Pokemon Flygon, and it's fighting what I assume is Gen 5's Braviary.


Meowstic (Female) and Wailmer


Next up is a female Meowstic, a Gen 6 Pokemon with different male and female forms, battling a Wailmer, which was first introduced in Gen 3.


Lucario


We see Gen 4's Lucario battling in a large stadium.


Tyranitar


Up against Lucario is Gen 2's Tyranitar, who gets hit pretty bad.


Munchlax


At the end of the battle montage, we see Munchlax--a baby Pokemon from Gen 4 that evolves into Snorlax--standing with the female trainer in a living room.


Gen 8 Starter: Scorbunny


The first new Pokemon we meet is the fire-type rabbit Scorbunny.


Gen 8 Starter: Sobble


We're then introduced to the water-type lizard Sobble, who is shy and perfect.


Gen 8 Starter: Grookey


The final Pokemon shown in the reveal trailer is the grass-type monkey Grookey, who rounds out the three Gen 8 starter Pokemon.

MediEvil Review - Bones 'n Brawn

As a remaster of the 1998 puzzle-platformer of the same name, MediEvil holds up reasonably well. Its cartoonishly charming characters and varied, if relatively simplistic, level design both stands the test of time and looks better than ever thanks to a complete graphical overhaul. But as much as MediEvil can feel like a warm blanket of nostalgia--especially for those of us who played the game 21 years ago--it also feels incredibly dated, with jittery controls and camera issues that regularly get in the way of progress. You play as Sir Daniel Fortesque, a dead knight who is returned to life when the sorcerer Zarok makes an unexpected return to Gallowmere, bringing with him hordes of monsters. Fortesque remains every bit as charming a character as he was; his gnarled teeth, warbly voice, and single, rolling eyeball lose none of their charisma in the remastering process. Zarok's design hasn't aged well, though, and the new visuals leave him looking like a plastic doll who’s been

After Pitching Dragon Age Musical DLC, David Gaider Is Finally Getting To Make His Musical Game

Dragon Age lead franchise writer David Gaider is making a new and intriguing-looking musical adventure game Chorus . As it turns out, the veteran game developer--who left BioWare years ago--has been thinking about making a musical game for a long time. In an appearance at the GameSpot Theatre today at PAX Aus about his new game and studio, Gaider said he in fact pitched musical DLC for Dragon Age during his time at BioWare. The musical Dragon Age DLC could have taken place inside the metaphysical Dragon Age realm called The Fade, he said. It was a semi-serious, semi-joking pitch, Gaider said, but whatever the case, it never happened. Gaider is now getting to realize that dream. His new game, Chorus, is a musical adventure game where they big story beats play out through song. Gaider is working on Chorus with Summerfall managing director Liam Esler (former Obsidian, Beamdog developer), while prolific voice actress Laura Bailey (Uncharted, Gears of War) is voicing the main character.
