Pokémon Sword & Shieldhas been adding a lot of unexampled content that would normally appease the longtime fan of the series , such asbizarre Gigantamax forms for classic Pokémonand Modern evolutions and regional variants for Farfetch’d , Ponyta , and Weezing . The promulgation of these unexampled additions that are steeped in nostalgia forPokémon Red & Bluehave all been overshadowed by the determination to move out the National Dex , which is seen as sacrilege by some fans .
There has been an expectation that Game Freak would reverse its decisiveness to thin the National Dex and would add the missing Pokémon into the game through post - launch content , which would in all probability have pervade the disputation .
