Last June 5th, in broadcast, Nintendo brought details of Pokémon Sword & Shield, we had a gameplay showing, showing the new Pokemons, Wooloo, Corviknight, Gossifleur (and its evolution Eldegoss) and Drednaw.
As you might imagine, the legendary Pokémon, Zacian (Sword) and Zamazenta (Shield), also appeared.
This news excited fans, but others not so much.

In an attempt to deliver the best possible experience without impacting launch, it was revealed during Nintendo Treehouse at E3 2019 that Pokémon Sword & Shield will not support Pokémon of all generations.
At this first moment, the Pokémon of Galar will be available, regardless of generation. But it was not clear if later support for the other Pokémon will be included.
It is worth remembering that in previous versions, through Pokémon Bank, it was possible to transfer Pokémon. Now, even if the player tries to transfer some Pokémon via Pokémon Home, he will not be able to because the Pokédex will only allow the inclusion of Pokémon from the Galar region.
For now, let's focus on the news that fans are excited about, Dynamax, a function that makes Pokémon giant and boosts their respective abilities once per game, which will last for three turns, and Max Raid battles. Battle, will allow up to four trainers to team up cooperatively to face a wild Pokémon in the Dynamax transformation.
In the US, the games can be purchased separately or in a bundle with both games.
