Pokémon Pokemon Sword or Shield?

[vel]

Since the legendaries have been revealed, which side are you on? Or are you on both?

Feel free to elaborate on your current decision.

I'm on Zacian's side, mostly because it reminds me of Sif from Dark Souls.

I’m getting both, so the legendary Pokemon don’t really matter to me. Need a main copy and another copy to play Nuzlocke/Wonderlocke/other challenges on anyway.

None. I dont own a switch

I intend to get both Pok?mon Sword and Pok?mon Shield since I've been in the habit of getting both versions of Pok?mon games each generation for a long while now. That said, even though I've tended to do that, I do usually have preferences between versions. This time I favor Shield since I like Zamazenta far more than Zacian, especially when looking at their attacking animation/powered-up form/whatever was shown in the Direct.

 

[MapleSilver]

Right now I'm leaning toward Shield, though since I'm not a fan of either legendary I will probably choose based on version exclusive Pok?mon.

I personally really like Zamazenta's design a lot more than Zacian, though they both look fantastic. I'm planning on getting Shield version, and my friend will likely get Sword version so we can trade version exclusives

i neglected to add a "none" option, my bad

Ahh, I know I said I was going to stay away on another post here in the Pokemon Center, but I can't help it. Both my mom and I are going to be playing. She's going to be playing Pokemon Shield and I will be playing Pokemon Sword. I don't understand why some people think the legendary from Sword looks awful compared to the one in Shield. I like both, but I like the one from Sword better. I think it's pretty cool and sorry, I forgot both the legendary's names. So, that's why I said the legendaries from the games instead of their names. XD

I really want Pokemon Sword. I was originally planning on Shield before the Direct was shown, but then I saw the design for Zacian and changed my mind. I don't really like that Zamazenta is a wolf trying to look like a lion with that shield. However, I do like the name Zamazenta more than Zacian.
I want both actually (just because lately I've always been getting both), but if I'm only able to get one, then definitely Sword. I always lean towards one or the other.

 

[Bluelady]

It'll probably be Shield for now. I really don't like Zacian's design.

 

[rianne]

I'm going to get Shield and my partner plans on getting Sword. :3

 

[rhinoo]

both, lmao

 

[Raayzx]

I'M OBSESSED WITH ZACIAN. das all

 

[Pellie]

I think I'm gonna pick Sword.

 

[Paperboy012305]

I can?t really choose, I don?t know what the version exclusives are, besides the box legends. As of now, I?ll get both. Until then, I don?t know which to choose.

 

[Chouchou]

If I buy it, I'll probably choose Sword.

 

[Psydye]

Possibly Sword? No idea though. We'll have to wait and see.

 

[Tao]

I don't choose based on the legendary. I'm never all that fond of them and they always end up in the PC rather than on my team.

I'll do what I always do, find out what Pokemon are exclusive to each version and buy the one that either has the most I like or the one I absolutely want.

 

[SaltedKaramel]

Shield for the time being! It's weird because I generally pick the "Blue" version, I was really into Sword when it was announced. But seeing the legends, I like Zamazenta a lot more. But my decision will only be made final until they release the version exclusives. Like if Growlithe is exclusive to Shield then that's that. Pretty much my only reason for getting Let's Go Pikachu over Eevee (even though I wanted the Eevee version).

May be the case for me this time around considering I find both legends to be terrible. :/
