In case you were holding out: hope, dashed. Speaking to Inside Gamer, Pokemon boss Junichi Masuda re-confirmed that yes, there are no plans to add the National Pokedex into Sword and Shield. Although there were some "maybes" thrown out since the news came back in June at E3, Game Freak is now sticking to their guns and eliminating the prospect altogether. Masuda states: "We now have no plans to make the Pokemon that are missing in the Galar Pokedex in- game available. That is an approach that we want to continue with Pokemon games in the future. Of course, up to now it has not been possible to encounter every Pokemon in every game, so people had to transfer it from old games via Pokemon Bank to the new game, for example."

Not sure if this has already been posted yet but just wanted people to see

GameFreak has been re-using the same assets given to them by Creature's Inc. since 2013. All of the Pokemon are exactly GEN 8(2019) the same from X and Y to Sword and Shield in model, texture, and animation. The work to be done is minimal. XY (2013) Male

Masuda and his foolproof arguments (commentary from people who know about balancing/3d modeling).

WritingEternity Let's burn everything, Charger! 18 points 51 minutes ago My brother works in modeling and character design for a (hopefully upcoming) indie game. Only got to speak to him today, and he laughed when he heard about the reasoning. Even if you said it's in a new engine (i.e.: switching from a custom engine to Unity or Unreal) all you would have to do is export the models in a different format. Same with animations Literally a minute or two job for each model. Textures are the harder part, but a dedicated team of 20 or so would be able to finish ~800 models in less than a month depending on the level of quality. Animations haven't changed, so that's again a port job. The only thing that he could understand is game balance, but they aren't changing stats (from what we've seen so far), they're not changing abilities, and at most they're changing learnsets. That's also a short job, from what I understand. I've worked with RPGMaker of all things. It doesn't take long to reassign values to new playable characters. Basically, the only reason this could possibly be having this much trouble is if they moved to Unreal (which I think they did) and they had to rebuild the programming. However, the solution is to delay the game, not push out an unfinished product. For those who would argue it is a finished product, it is unfinished because it has legacy compatibility. To not have legacy compatibility in a product advertised for its ability to play with legacy saves/content is by its very definition unfinished. It would be like Telltale Games releasing Walking Dead Season 2 and saying it uses your previous save file from season 1 to alter story bits throughout the season slightly, but then they change absolutely nothing- not even dialogue -- outside of one interaction in the first episode.

Pachirisu Man's reaction to Masuda snap.

진이 님이 리트윗했습니 다 ta Sejun Park @pokemon_tcg 울트라썬문은 처음으로 포켓몬 게임에서 배신감을 느끼게 해주었다. 레츠고는 처음으로 포켓몬 게임에 기대를 전혀 하지 않게 해주었다. 소드실드에서는 앞으로의 희망까지 다 사라지게 해줄 거라는 생각이 든다. 2019년 06월 13일 · 11:02 오후 Client 앱을 통해 에 Twitter Web 197 리트윗 93 마음에 들어요 트윗 Sejun Park @pokemon_tcg 포켓몬이 전부 나오지 않더라도 나는 이해할 수 있다. 이유가 변명이라 할지라도 나는 받아들일 수 있다. 나를 제일 슬프게 하는 건 포켓몬 다이렉트를 보면서도, E3 영상을 보면서도, 분명히 처음 공개되는 새로운 것들임에도, 전혀 흥분이 되지 않았다는 점이다. 2019년 06월 13일· 11:31 오후·에 Twitter Web Client 앱을 통해 33 리트윗 32 마음에 들어요 [Translation] Sejun Park's reaction to masuda snap Ultra Sun/Moon made me feel betrayed for the first time in the history of pokemon gaming series. LGPE destroyed my expectations for this game forever, for the first time in the entire series. I fear that Sword/Shield will tear down the last of my hopes. I am okay with the fact that not all pokemon can be with us in gen8. Even if the reason is a poor excuse, I will undetstand. What terrifies me the most, however, is the fact that i didn't feel a single drop of enthusiasm while watching pokemon direct and E3, even though they were all fresh news about the new game. *sejun park is winner of VGC2014 Achieved victory with pachirisu.

Memes are the best way to deal with depressing issues.

THIS IS A 4GB GAME WITH OVER 800 POKEMON RIGHT? YUP NINTENOO3DS LTRASUN NTR-AMHE-USA AND A SWITCH CARTRIDGE CAN HOLD 32GB SEEMS RIGHT TO ME AND THE MODELS MAKES SENSE IN GEN8 ARE THE SAME AS GEN7 BUT UPSCALED TO ME SO SWORD/SHIELD THERE ARE TOO SHOULD SUPPORT MANY POKEMON ALL POKEMON TO TRANSFER ANY NOTIN GALAR DEX

They hated him because he spoke the truth

Pokemon 3DS: 809 Pokemon including all megas, z move animations, totem Pokémon, primal reversions, different forms (such as Deoxys, Rotom forms, Ash Greninja etc) on a very weak system that isn't even 720p Pokémon Switch: Remove all megas Remove all z moves Remove all totems Remove half the Pokemon on a system that is a modern gaming console that can output 1080p High Definition visuals Before you say this makes the game "unbalanced" simply don't have every Pokemon available to catch but at least let us transfer them like in every single game before Sword/Shield

Please read notes first before you downvote me please

Vinny and Jon admitted they don't give a damn about the Galar National Dex controversy! They're a bad influence here! Their fanbases will listen to them, agree with them, and make gaming worse! Look at what happened with Overwatch and Lootboxes! #BringBackNationalDex James/THE GREATEST DETECTI.. 12m Replying to @Proton_Jon and @VinnyVinesauce are you two (the other being brought in So, I'm confused. Why being Vinny, not Jared) on this? It seems important, but I can think of even

Every franchise can be defined by certain core aspects. Upon altering said core aspects the franchise begins to lose its identity. People are fine more or less with every gimmick or change gamefreak has introduced over the course of series because they generally did not change the core of pokemon. What is the core of pokemon? I believe that what makes pokemon different from every other monster catching series is the connectivity between games of the series. There are no other monster catching games where you are actually capable of moving a creature from a 2004 game (Ruby/Sapphire) all the way to a game that came out in 2017 (USUM). The fact that this is possible to this very day is a testament to the uniqueness of pokemon mainline titles. Now however every single game starting with SS will be a walled garden, incapable of being penetrated by any pokemon not found within its regional dex. Certain pokemon will remain locked behind in the past until the day gamefreak in their infinite greed decides to allow them to return for another game's pokedex. I have no doubts they will use this as a selling gimmick. This "policy" is an attack against the very identity of the franchise. This is not just a hiccup, this is not a spinoff, they have gone out of their way to say that this is what pokemon will be from now on. They are devaluing the series that has for the longest time proven to be above any other monster catching game for the features it provides players with. Now with future pokemon games limited to a selection of specific pokemon instead of the entire library, it is vastly inferior to other games of its genre, be it in terms of graphics, animations, or story.

A gem I found on Reddit

The year is 2045 Top selling games this year are Call of Duty: Killbox (players take turns spawning inside a kill box and see how many milliseconds they can survive) and Assassin's Creed: Prehistoric (main character is a pterodactyl that swoops down and slices brontosaurus necks with steel edges wings). I hop in my Nintendo VR pod. This drops you into a virtual world typically indistinguishable from the real world - aside from the pterodactyls of course! My friends want me to join them for a round of spawn kills and while I love the thrill of feeling my body riddled with bullets, I have a hankering to play my favorite game Pokemon. Pokemon Scissors 2 and Pokemon Paper 2 are huge improvements over the original paper and scissor games. It's been a while since I played last so I decide to start a new game After a 6 hour intro explaining what a Pokemon is, I'm off on my journey. Professor Oak hands me a Bulbasaur and sends me off on a journey through the Kanto region. Nothing like 7 Kanto region games in a row! My dad tells me when he was a kid he was actually able to choose his starter but in order to make the game easier for today's audience you don't even have to make a choice! The VR world around me is slightly pixelated the Pokemon games don't have the same quality of graphics as most virtual world's, but compared to last months release, the graphics are definitely marginally improved! Luckily the graphics and realism aren't the most important part of a Pokemon adventure. The story and Pokemon I can capture are where the real fun is. Luckily I don't have to walk for real like most games - in order to simplify the game further, they recently removed the map markers indicating where I should walk and they just push my character in the right direction and I'm free to watch the Pokemon around me. Luckily the game starts you off with 25 master balls - the exact number you need to catch the 9 new Pokemon this generation added and the 15 special forms of Pikachu. My favorite is Pikachu wearing a meowth costume. I'm not really sure what a meowth is since he was cut from the dex around 15 years ago but the oversized costume is adorable on Pikachu. Cutting the entire Dex down to 25 Pokemon really allowed the designers to focus on amazing animations for the Pokemon we do get. As I float through the kanto region, Pokemon glide around. My Bulbasaur can't follow me but even better, I can have a slumber party with him and he has a new animation where he blinks twice instead of once. Sometimes he even falls asleep - his eyes don't close but z's float above his head so I know. Ah! My first rival battle. My rival is my mother, and she cheers me on during the whole battle against her unhatched egg. A lot of people found battling actual Pokemon slightly difficult so most battles are against eggs now. Sometimes that feels a little too easy but gym leaders all have one adorable baby Pokemon to go along with their team of eggs. I love wondering what their eggs would hatch into if they were able to have real Pokemon. With such an amazing roster of Pokemon it's almost impossible to guess which Pikachu form might hatch. I managed to beat my mom! Now one of my favorite parts - a 24 hour cut scenes where she walks me through the entire game! She even battled the elite 4 for me! I love Lance's dragon costume Pikachu!
