Pokemon Shield

Galar region adventure

Pokémon Shield is a 2019 role-playing video game for Nintendo Switch, released alongside Pokémon Sword as paired versions of the eighth generation of the Pokémon franchise.

Set in the Galar region, inspired by Great Britain, players catch and train creatures to battle.

Shield features the legendary Pokémon Zamazenta on its cover and includes version-exclusive Pokémon and gym leaders that differ from Sword: I chose Shield because I wanted Galarian Ponyta.
