coming out.
Now lets get into todays video of Pokemon Sword and Shield Fan Theories.
With the release of the Pokemon Sword and Shield reveal trailer we got a great look
at the locations, mechanics and some of the new core pocket monsters that the game will
give you the chance to start with.
The trailer also showed us that the game will take place in Galar, inspired by the United
Kingdom and will again feature the classic adorable grass, fire and water Pokemon to
choose from
Now along with these reveal trailers fans of the series have taken to the internet give
their own theories on the starters, their evolutions and the overall plot for the game.
So today were going to be breaking those all down.
Lets begin with the starters Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble.
First up is Grookey who appears to be a grass monkey type pokemon and judging by the trailer
showing him hitting that rock with a stick that he then uses as a hair tie it looks like
this little chimp knows how to use tools.
On the website, they have his description listed as - A mischievous Chimp Pokemon that
is full of boundless curiosity.
So if youre looking for a Pokemon to help you explore this new territory better, Grookey
may be the perfect match for you.
As I mentioned theres been some proposed concepts for these core Pokemons evolutionary lines.
(show photo https://bit.ly/2EVuttA) Judging by these photos it looks like this little
monkey will evolve in the Charles Darwin sense into a man-looking Pokemon.
Next we have the fire type Pokemon known as Scorbunny Its description says - A Rabbit
Pokemon that is always running about, bursting with energy.
You would have to have a ton of energy to be doing what its doing in the reveal trailer,
we see Scorbunny running up the side of a large gear showing off the industrial side
of this location leaving fire behind has it moves.
Next up is its evolutionary lines This fire-rabbit pokemon designs look fantastic and seem to
capitalize on the Pokemons speed by the looks of it.
Next we have the water type Pokemon known as Sobble Its description says - A somewhat
timid water lizard Pokemon that shoots out attacks as it hides in the water.
This one by far is my favorite for that camouflaging technique it has plus its species type isnt
as recognizable as the first two.
In regards to its evolutions, it couldnt look cooler If these designs are legit it looks
like Sobble will keep its curly looking tail and chameleon design.
Now that the starters and evolution leaks are out of the way lets talk about an interesting
plot theory by Chilly City on the Reddit fan theories page.
In the beginning of the direct trailer we see the male protagonist running through what
looks like the more snow region in the northeastern part of the city and in front you can see
four flags This fan theory suggests that the flags will resemble some sort of house sigils
that can be seen in the Galar region map.
The tower flag repping the abandoned tower in the open plain part of the map just south
of Steampunk city.
The crown flag is very ornately seen at the top of Dragon City.
The Gear flag which doesnt exactly appear as a symbol in the city, but could be associated
with the Steampunk city because of its industrial nature.
Gears though can be found on the mountain wall near the ground gym.
Lastly, the flower flag which is perhaps one of the most difficult areas on the map to
pinpoint, but its most likely near the flower-looking gym in the enormous London City.
The flags are akin to the way Hogwarts is split into different houses that has the plot
based around the struggles amongst them.
The locations names havent been officially released just yet, so Im just going to refer
to them with the names this fan is using for his theories.
For the Steampunk looking city it seems to focus on more steam-powered industrialization
and therefore may favor the fire type pokemon.
Dragon city clearly would idolize the strengths of Dragon-type Pokemon and may focus on a
type of religious lifestyle.
Land-Beyond-the-wall London City looks like a more technologically advanced lifestyle
which could focus on steel and electric-types.
The theory goes that after many years these cities elected to build walls on their borders
which is very similar to European history.
The developers could even be finding inspiration in the events such as the War of Roses.
They say - Heres the kicker.
You might be wondering why theres four flags, but only three major cities.
Some event, or maybe fighting over time, led to the collapse of the Tower House.
- This is a great point that also could be identifying the evil team that will take on
the role of the tower house.
They could be hiding out there in the snowy mountain region and using it as a base to
wipe out the other three houses to establish their dominance.
Kinda like the radio tower take over in previous games.
So from this theory, it looks like the game could be centered around a lot of elitism
and clashing factions.
Another exciting fan theory is that generation 8 will bring about a new mechanic called armored
evolutions.
Some are even speculating that you can see Melmetal on the hill side.
Melmetals pokedex entry reads - Revered long ago for its capacity to create iron from nothing.
For some reason, it has come back to life after 3000 years.
- This entry is especially interesting and can be another plot clue if youre willing
to go off the conspiracy theory deep end for a moment.
It could be possible that this new evil team will be attempting to reawaken Melmetal and
use its powers to enhance their Pokemon into their armored evolutions.
If so it looks like you now have the golden snitch that each house will be fighting for.
And that has been Pokemon Sword and Shield Fan Theories.
