After eventually making it to the creature’s details page, the Pokemon is listed as a Fighting type and has the Steadfast ability, However, the rest of the details are “glitched” so much as to not have anything else substantial shared.

Pokemon Sword/Shield had its own spotlight during the latest Nintendo Direct. In the footage shown, fans noticed that an auto-save message briefly appears.

This is something that would be very much appreciated in most games, but because of the nature of Pokemon, fans have some concerns. Auto-saving could interfere with resetting for shiny Pokemon and different natures as well as certain battles/encounters.

Fortunately, Pokemon Sword/Shield still has a manual save option. It’s very much possible that auto-save is optional or is limited to certain areas.

With many students starting up school again, My Nintendo is getting fans ready with a couple of new Pokemon Sword/Shield rewards.

First up is a set of lunch bag name tags for 30 Platinum Points. These feature Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble as well as the Legendary Pokemon Zacian and Zamazenta. The name tags can be printed at home or at an office supply store (the latter of which Nintendo says may let you laminate them). With a hole puncher, you can create hole in the corner of the tag and tie it to the lunch bag with a ribbon or string.
