Pokemon Shield

Earlier today, we heard about possible problems with Pokemon Sword/Shield and SD cards. It turns out that the issues do exist, but on the bright side, the situation can be addressed.

As previously reported, save files are unaffected. Data can be deleted by the glitch, but those that are affected may only end up losing screenshots. Games that were stored may also need to be downloaded again.

Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield have shown that people do actually eat Pokemon. In the games, players can make curry from… Slowpoke tails.

An in-game description states:

Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield are finally available on Switch today. To celebrate, Game Freak has shared a special piece of art. Find the new image attached above.

To celebrate the launch of Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield, Nintendo NY held a special midnight launch event. The Big N has now passed along a few photos from the festivities. We have the full set of images below, along with their descriptions.

Just like with past entries, Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield have serial codes players can redeem in-game. With such codes, players can receive cosmetic items in particular.

There’s good news this time around with how codes are handled. They now work in any region and are not limited to their original place of distribution. That means if a code was originally made available in Japan for instance, it will still work in North America and Europe.

Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield are now available worldwide. To celebrate the occasion, Nintendo put together a launch trailer for this newest generation of Pokemon games:

Players are reporting issues with a rather unfortunate problem: The digital release of Pokemon Sword and Shield seems to be corrupting SD card data when the game crashes. So far, it seems that any crash in the game could lead to the issue. While save files for games are stored on the Switch’s hardware, this could result in players needing to reformat their cards and redownload all of their games. Nintendo has not released any statement in regards to the problem, and there may not be enough data to really pinpoint the cause just yet.
