Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield are set in Galar, a vast region with a great variety of landscapes: idyllic rural areas, modern cities, vast plains and rocky and snowy mountains. Here humans and Pokémon live and work together to develop the region's industry. Pokémon fans will be able to visit all the Gyms in the region one after the other, aiming for the coveted title of Champion or Champion. During their journey they will be joined by their first adventure companion, chosen from recently discovered Pokémon, never seen before.

At the beginning of the adventure, players will have to choose their travel companion from three new Pokémon: Grookey, Scorbunny and Sobble. The Chimpanzee Pokémon Grookey is mischievous and endlessly curious, the Rabbit Pokémon Scorbunny is bursting with energy and always on the run, and the Aquazard Pokémon Sobble whose color and pattern on its body change when it stores water, allowing it to blend in with its surroundings.

The Dynamax Phenomenon
The Dynamax phenomenon occurs in certain locations in Galar, allowing Pokémon to assume gigantic sizes during battle, and is a key component of Pokémon battles that take place in this region. Galar Pokémon can dynamaxizzarsi, gaining unheard-of strength and becoming even more powerful. Trainers can only dynamax a Pokémon once per battle, and the dynamaxed Pokémon will return to its base form after three turns. Additionally, only Trainers who have a Dynamax Cuff can have their Pokémon Dynamaxed.

When a Pokémon is dynamaxized, all of its moves become special Dynamax moves, moves that are not only very powerful, but in some cases also have additional effects. One example is Dyna Attack, a normal-type Dynamax move that has the added effect of slowing down the speed of opponents it hits. Dynamax moves depend on the moves the Pokémon knows before Dynamaxing and their types.

Pokémon Gyms
In the Galar region there are various stadiums that house the Gyms, and in these buildings Trainers and Trainers specialized in a certain type meet. To obtain the title of Champion or Champion, players will have to defeat the strongest Trainer of each Gym, or the Gym Leader. The battles against the Gym Leaders, which often involve battles between colossal dynamaxized Pokémon, attract large numbers of spectators and are also broadcast on television throughout the Galar region. One such outstanding Trainer is Yarrow, the Grass-type Gym Leader and long-lasting battle specialist. He is much loved by the Trainers of his Gym, and for him what matters most in battles is having fun.

Explore the Wilds and participate in a Max Raid
The Wild Lands are vast expanses of untouched nature that extend into the Galar region. This stretch of wilderness connects various cities and towns with each other, and contains a huge variety of Pokémon, far more than in any other corner of Galar. The species you can find vary depending on many factors, including weather conditions and where you are, so the Wilds have something new to offer on every visit. Furthermore, in this area, players will be able to explore the vast expanses in search of Pokémon and tools in complete freedom, controlling the camera at will.

Dynamax Raid takes place in the Wilds, a new type of battle in which each player will have to team up with three other Trainers to face a wild Dynamax Pokémon. Trainers will have a chance to catch him if they manage to defeat him… but it won't be easy. The wild Pokémon Dynamax, in fact, will remain gigantic and will maintain its special powers for the duration of the fight. Team play will be essential, because only one team member can dynamaxize one of his Pokémon. Also, some Pokémon can only be caught during Max Raid Battles. When you team up with three other friends via Nintendo Switch Online, Max Raid Battles can become even more fun. However, if three other players are not available to take on the battle against the wild Dynamax Pokémon, support Trainers will automatically be chosen.

The culture and characters of Galar
In Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield, players will travel to the Galar region and discover many unique locations, such as cities where humans and Pokémon work side by side. Here Pokémon play a very important role, and are in great demand by various companies for their work skills. Furthermore, in Galar culture, Pokémon battles are the most loved show. Held in stadiums, they always draw large crowds of fans and spectators ready to cheer on the Gym Leaders or their challengers. Trainers from all over the world gather at the Pokémon League to challenge each other and hone their battling skills. As inhabitants of Galar, players will embark on their journey through the region and will have to face all the Gyms in the region and climb to the top of the Pokémon League to conquer the title of Champion or Champion.

Along the way they will meet many different characters and Pokémon:

  • Dandel is the reigning Galar Champion, and to this day has never suffered a defeat in an official match. Appreciated both for his skill and for his personality, Dandel is considered the greatest Trainer in all of Galar in his own right.
  • Hop is Dandel's younger brother and the player's neighbor. The two will begin their adventure on the same day, and their common goal of becoming Champions will make them rivals.
  • Professor Flora is the Professor of the Galar region and is dedicated to researching the Dynamax phenomenon.
  • Sonia is the niece and assistant of Professor Flora and a childhood friend of Dandel. She is a young researcher but with a vast knowledge and always willing to dispense good advice.

Legendary Pokémon
Legendary Pokémon Zacian and Zamazenta are shrouded in deep mystery even to the inhabitants of the Galar region. Zacian fights by moving with such grace that he even manages to charm his opponents. In his mouth he holds what appears to be a sword, whose gleaming blade is so sharp that it can cut through anything. With its impressive movements and the body covered by what appears to be a shield, Zamazenta instead manages to repel any attack and overwhelm any opponent who dares to face him.
