Trainer customization confirmed for Pokemon Sword & Shield, more info in next month’s CoroCoro
Posted on 5 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Screenshots, Switch | 0 comments
In a sort of roundabout way, it’s been confirmed that you’ll be able to customize your trainer’s clothes in Pokemon Sword & Shield. In Japan, Uniqlo held a contest in collaboration with The Pokemon Company in which participants could design t-shirts with a Pokemon theme. The winning design will be mass-produced and go on sale. Today, the winning design has been revealed – plus the fact that it will also be available in the upcoming Pokemon Sword & Shield as a customization option for the player character.
Additonally, the next issue of CoroCoro magazine will contain more new information on Pokemon Sword & Shield. That issue will be available on June 21, however, ten days after Nintendo’s E3 presentation, so it seems unlikely that CoroCoro will reveal a ton of actual new info.

Towards the end of the debut Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield trailer, we saw what looked like the player moving in a stadium-like building. Nintendo has now confirmed that these are indeed Gyms, and they house Gym Masters.
