Here we go again

We’re exactly(ish) one month out from the launch of Pokémon Sword and Shield, and the Pokémon Company has been solidly consistent with its release of information. After the curious reveal of Sirfetch’d, and the agonising livestream that led to Galarian Ponyta, the next batch of info is set to release in (hopefully) a more normal way.

The Pokémon Company has announced that the next info drop for Pokémon Sword and Shield will take place later tonight, or extremely early tomorrow morning, depending on your time zone (thanks DST).

It’s currently unknown what the next batch of info will reveal, but with the release date just around the corner now, we expect we’ll start to see things ramp up a bit. As always, you can see the full Aussie and New Zealand times below.
