Pokémon become huge with Dynamax & Gigantamax
Dynamaxing!
Dynamax is a phenomenon unique to specific locations in the Galar region, where Pokémon are able to take on gigantic appearances. Dynamax Pokémon become tremendously strong and their stats get a boost but they will return to normal after three turns.
Gigantamaxing!
Only certain species of Pokémon can Gigantamax—and even among such species, only rare specimens will be able to. Gigantamax Pokémon become bigger and it boosts the power of the Pokémon. It also allows each Gigantamax Pokémon to use a unique move known as a G-Max Move!

This game has more freedom to roam around when ur done interacting with the main characters and theres lots of hidden stuff on the roads that shine as ur passing through. The diversity of old and new pokemon is outstanding as well. Theres lots of pokemon to choose from in every route. Even in the beginning of ur journey, u can start fishing with ur fishing rod so u can mix and match the perfect team from the start :) i would also advise being very careful in the wild area because i got my butt kicked with a level 45 Galvantula while i was just level 12. I was lucky to escape with my last pokemon still unfainted xD i was dumb enough to interact with it since i thought i would be lucky enough to catch it but found out u have to beat a certain amount of gyms in order to catch high level pokemon or else it'll just tell u that it wont let its guard down. Its the same concept as having a certain amount of gym badges to make high level pokemon from trades obey u. I had to find out the hard way lol
Now for the designs of the new pokemon and graphics of the games. Everyone has their own opinions on this ever since it was announced that there was gonna be no national dex. Personally, i avoided the leaks so idk what im expecting to get. So far, i love every single pokemon i have come across. Some r weird and funny looking but they do grow on u as u figure out they are really good in battles :) when they evolved, i still love the designs and was so surprised of the typings that were added and became even more useful to keep in ur team. It is true that many battle move animations and models r reused from past games but it really shouldnt matter all that much as alot of old moves have new animations and the pokemon's colors and textures look way better than the previous generations. The graphics in the wild area is the best ive seen except for the trees. The weird part is, the berry trees in the wild area look completely fine and fit well with the good graphics so my guess is that the company didnt really bother making those normal trees look as good since u cant interact with them at all and in my opinion thats completely fine. The graphics in the towns, caves, and routes are completely breathtaking so theres nothing negative i can say there :)
Despite lack of national dex i will say this. Overall, this game deserves its 5 stars and worth every penny. The variety of pokemon, the fun battles, and both ur awesome and jerk rivals make it a really fun experience for both oldschool and new trainers to enjoy. As i stated, i avoided every single thing about this game besides the announcement trailers from pokemon and nintendo so i was nervous since so many people were stating that the animations were garbage. Playing this game, i just dont see anything wrong with how it looks and how the pokemon move. The game and its scenery looks absolutely beautiful. I really recommend this game to at least be given a chance. I know it will be worth the gameplay :)
I have played every main series Pokemon game since I got Pokemon Blue when I turned seven. Some games have been better than others; however, Pokemon Sword is settling in right there at the top. The game looks amazing; the new monsters are some of my favorites in years; the new Galar region is hands down the most immersive region so far; and the story is there, and I’m probably about halfway through, and I haven’t predicted the whole thing yet, so that’s great (although, I believe playing Pokemon for the story is like . . . well . . . you just don’t play Pokemon for the story)!
Pokemon Sword seems to have been very carefully thought out, and it takes everything that’s great about Pokemon and builds on it. Pokemon has always been about exploring new places, meeting new friends, and looking at the bright side, all while fighting for the glory of becoming the Champion and beating the bad guys! Pokemon Sword does all these wonderfully. And, while it’s a little cheesy, I have never felt so epic walking into a gym battle than I do in this game!
Now to address the almighty controversy of the missing National Pokedex. Yes, it’s gone. Do I miss it? A little. There are definitely some Pokemon I’m bummed I can’t use in this game, but let’s be real. You can only have six Pokemon in your party anyway. There are more than enough great Pokemon to choose from, and I will be even happier to see my favorites when they come back. And at the rate they’ve been putting out Pokemon games lately, that probably won’t be too far in the future. They were right when they said that limiting Pokemon would have to happen eventually. I don’t care if they have all the storage space in the world to work from, or every single Pokemon is perfectly pre-designed and ready to pop in the game. Having that many options is overwhelming. The last time I caught every single Pokemon in a Pokemon game was in Pokemon X, and I’m still trying to decide if catching ‘em all was an enjoyable experience or not. And yeah, for those who have favorite Pokemon they’ve been training and carrying with them from game to game and suddenly can’t use them, that does suck. But it’s not like those Pokemon have been erased. They’re still useful in previous games, and they’ll be again in future games. Pokemon Sword is simply a chance to try something new!
In short, I know my nephews (ages 6-12) will love this game! I really enjoy it too! Pokemon has always been, and should always be, designed for children. And they’ve nailed it this time. It can’t be designed for everyone. That’s a bad business strategy. I'm just glad I get to join in on the fun!

問題なく日本のスイッチでも起動しました。
起動するとあらまぁ日本の剣盾と同じ画面。
つまり最初は言語選択画面。英語もありゃ日本語もあります。つまり中のデータは日本版とおそらく一緒です^^;
一応英語版買ったし、言語は英語を選択しましたが、日本語選択もあったので日本語でもできます。
とどのつまりケースとソフト本体は英語ですが、データは日本版と全く同じです。
だから普通にあまり買うメリットはないかとおもいます。高いし。
コレクション的ならいいかも。
