Pokemon Sword and Shield is now less than a month away and to be honest, a lot of the game is still shrouded in mystery. With that mystery has come a decent amount of controversy and backlash to Game Freak. As we’ve discussed in the past, the first complaint some fans have is the graphical fidelity, where some believe there hasn’t been an upgrade given this is the first console Pokemon game in years. Second and what we’ll be covering today is the fact that the National Pokedex will not contain every Pokemon in existence. However thanks to Nintendo Soup, we have all 250 Pokemon that will appear in Sword & Shield.
