One more day. I'm sending one of my drivers at work to get it for me tomorrow. So I don't have to fight the headache of the area where BB is after work. I'm stoked. #teamscorbunny #teamshield Dude I'm super stoked! I ordered my copies on the eShop so it unlocks at midnight here in the UK. 8 hours to go! This has been a long day, every YouTuber I follow is bloody playing it as we speak. I'm trying to stay as free from it as I can. Don't want to know the story and where Pokemon are. I've picked out my team already but I want to find them for the first time myself. Although, #TeamGrookey so I can't wait to get him!

I've not read too much into the game details yet but I'm assuming there's some sort of elite four type challenge as usual. If so, I had an idea in keeping with the British theme. Whoever I beat them with gets knighted and renamed to Sir Arcanine, Sir Blastoise and so on.

Only seen less than a handful of screenshots, no videos, I don't know a full final list of all Pokémon included. I don't know where they are. I'm going in as blind as I have any Pokémon game since I played my first game, the Yellow version, 20 years ago. I am taking Scorbunny because I always start Fire when given a type choice. Tbh, I'd like to be able to have all 3 starters.

Grass all the way, and Ace Bennett let me pick this time since he got to pick SuMo and we always pick different games so we can trade starters and exclusives. Have every game since XY.

Starting Sword. Just home from work. LEGGO! What mons do you plan on filling your team out with? No clue! I went into this totally blind. Like back when I played Gens 1 and 2. I know the starters, legends, and the Galar formes, that's it. So far, I'm rocking Grookey, the little dark fox, the generic bird, and the generic bug. All will likely change.

Right now I have the derpy turtle, generic bird as well, blipbug, yamper, and the mystery gift meowth(who will get boxed). Generic bird actually has a cool looking final evo though. How are u liking the game so far?

My team when I went to bed last night, having just opened the game back up: Rookidee: 12 Grookey: 11 Dottler: 10 Nickit: 10 Skwovet: 10 Wooloo (nicknamed Bob Corbin from a local country band named Corbin/Hanner, they have a song that talks about being the black sheep of the family): 10 But I finished off the Caterpie line and got Grubbin evolved into Chargabug, just for completion sake. I haven't even fought the first gym. XD

I got Sword yesterday after keeping up with almost no information and I'm loving it. I haven't played a pokemon game since X I think. Its awesome seeing all the changes made to the series over the past few years. I just made it to the first gym. Spent over an hour just goofing around exploring the first wild area and making a lot of curry and playing with my pokemon. My party right now is Scorbunny, Nuzleaf, Tyrogue, Yamper, Chewtle, and Pancham
