aegislash would never get cut from this game
it fits way too well with the theme.

Should it be?
Yeah
it would be funny and good

They did, Though it seems they might add back incineroar which sinks cause that is one of my least favs.

is quite the insult, but also raises the question - why did dexit happen then?
This isn't true

If you're basing this on that one Reddit thread it's literally full of misinformation. The game is far from the potential is could have lived up to but it's not at all game freak lying to anyone beyond what a lot of angry people like yelling about in twitter echo chambers.

Also why the fuck does gothitelle get fake out. And why is there one particularly obnoxious dragon.

Even Gamefreak is not enough of a clown operation to cut the Pokemon that is, entirely, a Sword Holding a Shield from Pokemon Sword/Shield.

ud buy a game for the story?

no I'm not gonna buy this game
I don't have a switch and no furret is dealbreaker for me, not to mention competative pokemon doesn't interest me.
Not to mention I could probably continue my rejuvenation run if I wanted a challenging fun game. I don't think these games are hard :/

I almost competed a breeder's living dex (that is to say, one copy on hand of every breedable Pokemon) so if anyone needs anything in particular let me know. Also add me...IF YOU DARE. I always try to help out with/offer up raid battles.

What I need most is a Gigantamax Pikachu (given for free to anyone who has a let's go pikachu save data on their switch). I can offer up the Gigantamax Eevee counterpart if anyone wants that instead. Also raid battles for/Gigantamax forms of the Sword exclusive Gigantamax Pokemon (
Machamp, Coalossal, Flapple
) and Tart Apples.

The towns were disappointing, none more so than Spikemuth. I thought it was going to be a cool urban town like the Under from Pokemon coliseum but instead it is just a straight lined hallway that leads to the gym. Ballonlea is probably the best one since it looks super cool with the mushrooms.

Also online matchmaking for raids are really bad. I have trouble getting into others raids and having others get into my raids.

The nuslock for this game was harder than Moon though which was nice.

So I'm probably about done with Pokemon Sword aside from checking in and catching a few new pokes from raid battles once a day or so since I finished the main story+legendary side-quest

I have read that you can improve IVs with Bottle Caps in this game which would be cool to actually be able to muck around with competitive jank without dealing with breeding buuut your pokemon have to be level 100 to do it so...eh.

Don't regret getting it tho and enjoyed my time with it (even though the story's dumb). I think the one thing it's lacking is actual dungeons that require effort or planning ahead with items to get through which would have been nice (especially an unknown dungeon type of thing for post-game leveling). 8/10 would probably buy another Pokemon game like this for the Switch if they made another in 2-3 years.
