    I don't know why, but I feel like I should mention that there's rarely a pokemon design that I hate. Designs I forget, sure, but not hate.

    Sirfetch'd looks really good. Farfetch'd really could have used this earlier (in order to give hunters the lance in places where they would rather not have a lance.) Pretty cool considering how most of the Pokémon designs have been a miss so far. I will probably order Sword despite its otherwise inferior exclusive Pokémon.

    Now, can Lickitung please get a third stage that doesn't look as dumb as Lickilicki? I know there are Pokémon like Dunsparce and Qwilfish that could better use an evolution but I was never satisfied with how they left Lickitung, damn it. :lol

    Damned straight. If you don't have a trading partner, you're basically stuck with Onix and Scyther, for example (though I much prefer Scyther to Scizor).

    Say, would anyone like to help me brainstorm a Halloween-themed team to beat down Rainbow Rocket with? With me being post game and all, grinding is mega easy.

    I think that I should keep my Decidueye for the ride to start with. Doesn't look like the Pumpkaboo line is available.

    Also have just recently started X, so maybe a team for the story there?

    It is great to see Farfetch'd is finally getting an evolution, and I'm really liking the Sirfetch'd design. Seems a bit odd to me as a Sword exclusive that they didn't reveal a Shield counterpart along with it though. It's also interesting they say Farfetch'd will evolve after "experiencing many battles". It does imply that it will be as simple as leveling it up. I have to say, I kinda like the idea of just being able to level up a Pokemon for a new evolution simply because it's a new region.

    I hope it actually means something like "has to be in 100 battles" as opposed yo just experience.

    For those who do not yet know.

    Sableye, the Escavalier line, the Aegislash line and the Ribombee line, have been confirmed for the Galar Regional Pokedex.

    Aegislash and Escavalier were a given because Aegislash is a living sword (Plus the Aladdin meme with Grookey) and Escavalier resembles a Knight.

    Well I mean, so were Bellossom, Solrock and Lunatone for Sun and Moon but that never happened.

    And that meme was just fan art, there was no prior proof whether or not the line was in the games. Its only now confirmed due to the Dynamax App.

    so, based on data mined from the new Japanese Dynamax site...

    Yamper, Wooloo, Dreadknaw, Polteageist and Rolycoly either evolve or have pre-evolve forms.
    Corviknight is the 3rd stage it its evolutionary line
    Morpeko doesn't evolve

    abcboy on Twitter

    not really an OFFICIAL confirmation yet but promising and would make sense for most of them.

    Also Alcremie is an evolved form. I swear if Polteageist's preform is Entitea, then that "fakemon" idea guy should sue, lol

    If the Escavalier line has been confirmed do you think its safe to assume that the Accelgor line is in the game as well?

    Unless they've changed the way Shelmet and Karrablast evolve Accelgor has to be in.

    Starter evolution for the past couple of gens have been revealed in October. Gen 7's were revealed October 4th so we can expect something soon-ish.
