The Dynamax phenomenon
Dynamax is a phenomenon unique to specific locations in the Galar region, where Pokémon can take on gigantic appearances during battle, and it’s an integral part of Pokémon battles in the region.
Pokémon from the Galar region are able to Dynamax, and when they do, they become tremendously strong and receive a boost to their power.
Explore the Wild Area
The Wild Area is a vast expanse of land in the Galar region with untamed wilderness. It is full of nature and connects several different towns and cities. Trainers will find a greater variety of Pokémon living in the Wild Area than anywhere else in the Galar region.
Join a Max Raid Battle
Max Raid Battles are a new battle format that takes place in the Wild Area, in which the player will team up with up to three other Trainers online* or via local wireless** to take on a wild Dynamax Pokémon.

People of the Galar Region
As a resident of the Galar region, players will embark on an adventure to become the Champion and meet many people and Pokémon along the way.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
First of all, this is not the USA version, it’s the European (I believe).
The game has a certain controversy called ‘Dexit’ in which a portion (234) of the 898 Pokémon are missing in the game. They cannot be caught or transferred from a later game. So some of your favorites may not be in it.
This game also has DLC ($29.99), paid content to further your gameplay. I have the DLC and I really enjoyed it. There’s a whole new island and another new area to discover with brand new stories.
This game has a ‘boring, unmemorable gimmick.’ Pokémon games usually have a gimmick like X and Y’s mega evolution but Sword and Shield’s is Dynamax/Gigantamax. Basically Pokémon get bigger and more powerful for 3 turns. Some Pokémon change appearances also. You can decide whether you like it or not. I don’t hate it or love it, so it didn’t really ruin the game for me.
This game is pretty easy. It is one of the easiest games to beat. For me, I didn’t dynamax through the whole story or use any items in battle to up the difficulty. You could also try a nuzlocke or another challenge. This is the right difficulty for kids though.
There is character customization so you can dress up but you cannot change your Gender once you select it.
For returning players, this game has added some quality of life features like the removal of HM’s (yay) and many new Pokémon. There is also a new fairy type if you played before X and Y. No more heart scales to relearn moves either!
For competitive players, this game makes it really easy to breed Pokémon and teach them old moves (no heartscales)! They can max out IV’s with an item and there are lots of TM’s and TR’s (one-time-use TM’s). Don’t worry - you can get multiple TR’s of the same move.
Multiplayer- this game has some multiplayer aspect to it. There’s online (playing using internet) and local (people physically next to you). You engage in battles by teaming up with 3 other people and fighting a big dynamax Pokémon. BEWARE: You will have to pay for a subscription to play online ($20 for 1 year). Locally, it’s basically the same thing as online but you don’t need a subscription and you see the person. Each person also needs their own copy of Sword or Shield and their own switch, which can get pricey.
There are still version exclusives. Basically, this game and Pokémon Shield are the same game but with minor tweaks. *maybe small, minor spoilers ahead* There are 2 gym leaders exclusive to each game (Sword has Fighting and Rock and Shield has Ghost and Ice). Also, some Pokémon are only found in 1 copy of the game (either sword or shield).
Most, if not all, trade Pokémon can be caught in the wild.
That’s all for my review. I personally loved this game but it ultimately comes down to you if you want it. It’s the perfect addition for kids!
