 Hey everyone tonight I know it's a bit of a late video tonight but we have a bunch of Pokemon Sword and Shield leaks these definitely seem pretty legit some comes from a Twitter account that is now deleted and another seems to come from the official strategy guide having leaked and a whole bunch of stuff so if you do not want any spoilers for Pokemon Sword and Shield which releases later this month I would obviously not watch this video but if you already clicked on the video then you obviously want those spoilers but before we get into the rest of this video we got to talk about the comments of the day from the other day on Halloween we asked you guys what's your favorite horror game and I chose to talk about Gazenja Fox's comment who's mentioned favorite horror game probably Eternal Darkness Sanity's Requiem but I do appreciate the unique comedy horror stealth puzzle vibes of Gregory horror show Soul Collector big shout out to that game I never thought that game would ever be brought upon this channel a game that never came out in the US based on a TV series that never got a European release I will never figure out the localization strategy that franchises I don't understand it either I've seen videos I haven't actually played it but hey also today's comment question of the day is what is your favorite Pokemon game and why all right so let's get right into the news and first off we got to talk about Grookey and Sabo we're talking about some evolutions for them this came from a Twitter account I got this information from Nintendo everything because that Twitter account has since been deleted and we now get a look at the first evolutions for Grookey and Sabo so here is the first evolution for Grookey at least what appears to be a pretty legit again it comes from a Twitter account that has been deleted so that there's the first evolution for Grookey and then this is the first evolution for Sabo I think you know when you look at the original up here it kind of it kind of looks like a good evolution I would say of those two but now we get into the big one and this is where as it says leaks showed you know Gigantamax forms new Pokemon scorebunnies final evolution all that we have a whole bunch of stuff here and it's through a slew of images that seem to come from the official strategy guide and here's the full roundup of what's going to be in these we're gonna see Gigantamax Machop Gigantamax Krabby Gigantamax Garbador Gigantamax Lapras Centus Kro Khorch Gigantamax Senta Khorch Gigantamax of a possible royally coily evolution so it's obviously like a evolution or a new Pokemon we haven't seen before Haterine Silicobra Sanda Kanda Cinderance and an unknown Pokemon possibly a turn at this and then an unknown Pokemon supposedly got Jemantica's form of Silicorba and Sander Kanda but again all this is completely unconfirmed beyond the images so let's get in the image and this is obviously the first one right here yeah Gigantamax Machamp I'm you know I I don't know what else I expected but he looks pretty badass all right next up here we go with Krabby here the Gigantamax Krabby looks looks pretty menacing I gotta say definitely a giant crab reminds me of some Zelda bosses to be honest next up here we go here's a Garbador so Gigantamax Garbador it looks pretty creepy I love the I love the boat next up we got Gigantamax the gentle scorch so there you go looks almost like a tape worm also yeah looks like a tape reminds me a little bit of all the Agia from from Zelda but that not the up here this reminds me of a different boss but yeah pretty cool all right next up we got Gigantamax Lapras obviously right here which was right above Gigantamax of the Machamp but there you go probably maybe the least inspiring so far although I do like the look of the shell and those musical notes or whatever whatever that is looks pretty cool all right next up we have sent a scorch here so I guess that Gigantamax version and this is the original so yeah definitely got that tape where I'm actually going do I love that X shape of the fire like it's coming out the nostrils or whatever that's really cool all right you know there's the Gigantamax and sent a scorch again next up we have Gigantamax Rolly Coley evolution that looks awesome so one thing I got a note here so far is that I'm liking the Pokemon designs again there were there was a few generations where I really wasn't enjoying the designs of the Pokemon but I got to say so far I'm liking these new designs these new Gigantamax forms or the new Pokemon I'm really enjoying what they're doing with them which is something that I couldn't say honestly before this is catering here looks pretty interesting that one I might need a closer look to have a full opinion maybe the least interesting so far that I've seen but definitely looks interesting all right next up here is the Silicobra it's almost like a it's kind of like a dog face with a weird mouth on a cobra body I don't know that that okay though the this is the probably the weirdest one maybe maybe the first design I'm not a huge fan of Santa Conda okay I mean it's just a curled up snake with whatever the heck is that another part of its body I have no I have no idea but all right next up you got Cinderace that's like an NPC but it's like a bunny reminds me of a of anime to be honest anime characters like you know the talking characters like talking animals but all right cool see some of the weaknesses as well for those that are interested in that let me see here unknown this is one that we just don't know this is the possibly externatus but the blue the picture is kind of blurry so it's hard to get a good look definitely looks menacing of course but we don't really have a clear picture of it for some reason I don't know why the other pictures are clear maybe maybe they just saw this at a store and they had a snap photo is quick and you know sometimes you're in a rush and you get what you can get before they just realized oh or it's an employee maybe who is in the back room that maybe shouldn't have been doing it another unknown one supposedly a gem of Silicobra and Santa Conda I mean you can see like the tail here I guess that can make sense a little bit it looks really I don't know looks really different though then the other ones that we saw besides the tail so I'm not exactly sure on this one but it definitely looks interesting also like it's like a pot with honey coming out and then there's like this long tail with like a dragon head I don't know I it looks interesting that's that's really all I could say about that and the source on this just to double check is that Twitter account that has been deleted the leaks Pokemon Twitter account so I guess that's really it for the Pokemon leaks these are obviously some of the most legit leaks that I think I've seen in some time because it definitely doesn't look that this would be a pretty hard to fake kind of leak so I got to say that it looks legit obviously take everything with a grain of salt because I can't confirm any others and nobody can really confirm it but it looks pretty legit and Nintendo everything doesn't really post up a lot of rumors and leaks unless it appears to be pretty legit I mean there's there's stuff that we've talked one of the channel that they completely avoid so I got to say that I'm getting more and more hype the closer we get to Sword and Shield coming out now I did get a chance to actually play Sword and Shield at E3 and it was in an enjoyable experience that it was it was just a gem and you got to play around with some battles and some puzzle elements and then you know I think it that go out in the open world like I know some people have been able to do sense so I think that or supposedly open world it's kind of I I don't know it's not truly open if that makes sense right it's kind of like you're on a set path but like each area is like bigger and you can kind of explore each area kind of reminds me of probably more like Ocarina of Time where I know some people consider Ocarina of Time to be completely open world and it does completely open up at some point but for large parts of that game you're going area to area and each area is open to explore but you know you're still kind of on a path until a certain part of that game and that's kind of what it feels like Pokemon Sword and Shield is doing until you obviously get later in the game and then you can go anywhere you want what you can do in any Pokemon game so I think that I'm getting I'm getting more and more excited I know that there are some some people that have concerns about this game but my concerns are kind of melting away now I've never cared as much about the National Dex as some people did so that's I know we've covered that story in the past but that's not something that bothers me so much the animations have obviously been something I I am critical of and I hope improves but I can't control that so one thing I can say and I believe I've said this before Pokemon Sword and Shield does look like it might be the best Pokemon game ever made and it so when you start complaining about what this game is or what it's turning into I think the complaints and I'm just saying this from my perspective are just that we wanted to see more out of the first true new gen HD Pokemon game the true home console Pokemon game and when I say see more I mean we wanted to see more risks we wanted to see more more of an evolution more of a Breath of the Wild take Pokemon right I'm just gonna be exactly Breath of the Wild but you know what I mean we're Breath of the Wild kind of goes back to the roots of the series but also completely expand Zelda beyond anything it's ever been before Breath of the Wild if you play that and you play any other Zelda game you will know how different Breath of the Wild is and how much of an evolution it is for the series and why Breath of the Wild is about to sell 15 million copies which is almost double the best selling Zelda game before it so we have to start thinking about Pokemon in this light where maybe people after all these years of Pokemon going in this one direction we're kind of hoping hey now that we have the power of a home console I mean it is significantly more powerful than a 3DS anyways we're hoping that it could take a next jump evolution and to be fair there are some things the more openness of the world the Pokemon being out in the wild seem to be more like Pokemon let's go Pikachu let's go Eevee you know we're seeing some some different takes of the gyms and some different takes with the story maybe a bit and some different takes with the Giga Max or whatever it is the Dynamics like we're seeing the Raid Battle thing like we're seeing them do new things with these all feel like features that would just naturally be occurring in you know a new Pokemon game because we've seen them evolve the Pokemon series over time introducing new features like this in the past not not exactly these ones but you know Z moves and all that stuff so we have seen them do these sorts of evolutions before so I think a lot of us were kind of looking at it as we don't just want the world to be bigger we don't just want the perspective to maybe change or to have prettier visuals we wanted to see a true evolution of the series and this feels more like an iterative step forward this is like the Twilight Princess to Ocarina of Time right and Twilight Princess is fantastic so there's nothing wrong with that and I do think this will be the greatest Pokemon game ever made just personally I would have liked to see more but I'm sure I'm gonna end up really enjoying this experience but we'll see I've been out of the Pokemon franchise for a while for various reasons that hopefully I will will be a journey of self-discovery playing sword and shield I know I don't know which one I'm buying yet so I'll figure that out as I get closer to making that purchase anyways thank you guys so much for tuning in I am the tender over just from the tender prime I got more videos coming your way the rest of this upcoming week more new stuff got the return of the Nintendo Prime podcast for you guys to look forward to so that should be exciting I also want to get some more discussion videos and other things out the door I don't have a consistent schedule just yet I want to get a few live streams in as well well we'll figure things out as we go here and I get more into a flow with through my new job in this so thank you guys for tuning in and man oh man oh man I got a lot I got a lot like my whiteboard is chock full with all these video ideas that have nothing to do with just news I know that we talk a lot of news on this channel and one thing I think I might be pushing more forward in the future is more unique quote quote unique content you know more top 10 listings more discussion videos more editorial style videos because there's a lot of it channels out there that cover news and I'm always going to talk about news on the podcast I think the podcast will be one of my primary sources for talking news but here at the channel for regular video content there will be big news like this every once in a while that I'm going to talk about but I want to start steering things more away from relying on the news cycle for everything and maybe more towards you know content that might have news involved with it but it's involved with it in a way to you know to talk about an opinion on a game I would love to get into some game reviews as well more consistently once I get my new switch in the house so I don't know just there's some stuff I wanted to kind of throw out there to for you guys to maybe look forward to and I say I'm saying maybe because I got to get the ball rolling on this content because it takes a lot longer to make than a news video so I think yes for Tune in and I'll catch you guys in the next one
