Developer says to expect surprises

The Pokémon Company will be holding a 24 hour live stream on Friday, October 4 for Nintendo Switch titles Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield.

The live stream will start at 6am PDT / 9am EDT / 2pm BST, with live footage broadcast for 24 hours from “a camera set up in Glimwood Tangle,” a strange forest located deep within the game’s Galar region.

The Pokémon Company said: “This is your chance to get to know the various Pokémon that make their home in this forest! You may notice things that surprise you!”

Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield will release worldwide on November 15, 2019 for Nintendo Switch. A limited edition Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield Switch Lite console will also be released in November.

Sword and Pokémon Shield will include a host of gameplay additions, including the ability to Dynamax, which makes Pokémon giant in size and boosts their power.

The Wild Area stretching between the cities of Galar is where players will encounter most Pokémon, with different ones appearing depending on where players are and what the weather’s like.
