Pokemon games usually incite deluges of leaks prior to their launch, and the lack of such leaks – at least of the magnitude that one usually expects – with Sword and Shield has been a pleasant surprise. Well, until now. It seems someone has gotten their hands on guidebooks for Pokemon Sword and Shields, and as such, images of unrevealed Pokemon from the upcoming RPG duo are popping up everywhere on the internet.
Given how spoilery these leaks are, you won’t find those images on this page, but if you do want to check them out, you can head on over to this massive Twitter thread by @LeaksPokemon. There’s several new Pokemon in there, including evolutions for the Galar starters. I’d say avoid looking at them, what with the games themselves being less than two weeks away from launch, but if you absolutely cannot wait, go ahead knock yourself out. Since these are also officially unconfirmed, this is (technically) a rumour, so you know- grain of salt and all that.
Pokemon Sword and Shield are out on November 15. You’ll need over 9 GB of free storage space on your system, but cloud saves will not be supported.
