So what are your takes on the 2 legendary wolves?
I think they're both awesome!
I love Zacian holding onto it's sword for sure, but Zamazenta's cloak looks so awesome as well as it's shield mane.

I love them both as they represent Z, but Zacian is far closer to my heart because it's close to my name! (Zach)

I'm not feeling very big on them. I'm just not into their general look and don't like how similar looking they are. I thought it was gonna be different forms of the same Pokemon at first.

blue June 5th, 2019 9:22 AM

i like them! they look similar but they appear to be more like allies than anything which would make sense given their similarities. there's obviously a third legendary in play which was hinted in the trailer that they seem to be fighting together against.

colours June 5th, 2019 9:54 AM

I mean, I like them both! Not so much Zamazenta for the same reasons that I'm not huge on Bastiodon, but it still looks ok.

Michelax3 June 5th, 2019 10:22 AM

I love them! I am a bit biased because wolves are my favorite animal, but I really love the sword and shield theme.

Zacian is my favorite of the two, but I love both.

I really don't mind them looking similar at all. I am sure there is going to be a canon reason.

I think Zacian will have a hard time battling with that sword in his mouth. In my opinion Zacian is lazy designed, would be better if his mane would be made of blades or a horn that looks like a blade an actual sword. Zamazenta is fine.

Janp June 5th, 2019 12:18 PM

They look fine. I'm looking forward their backstories. Zacian reminds me of Sif from Dark Souls. Would be interesting if it would have story like that.

mikey June 5th, 2019 12:37 PM

i love them both

Palamon June 5th, 2019 2:18 PM

I'm really liking Zacian, though. A wolf like Pokemon holding a sword is so freaking cool. Zamazenta is cool, too, but that name is hard to pronounce, so it didn't really grab me.

bobandbill June 5th, 2019 2:21 PM

I'm alright with them. I think I'll refer to fanart to help me warm up to them more. And dog memes

Taemin June 5th, 2019 2:24 PM

ZACIAN IS MY FAVORITE LEGENDARY

I love canine Pokemon, especially wolves, so I was like yeeeesss

ShyRayq June 5th, 2019 3:17 PM

When the trailer first played, I thought that they were just two forms of the same pokemon. They look SO similar.
They're both wolves and their colour schemes of red+blue are so similar.

I'm pretty torn between the two: Zacian is literally a dog with a sword while Zamazenta looks pretty stupid with its shield 'mane/collar'.
Though, Zacian's sword-holding is just stupid enough to win me over Zamazenta, so I'll probably make Sword my main game.
Hopefully the third legendary isn't so similar.

Caite-chan June 5th, 2019 3:18 PM

Love, love Zacian but I have to say I'm not to crazy for the other one. That mane just doesn't do it for me.

Silent Memento June 5th, 2019 3:39 PM

As wolves are my favorite animal, I love them both. Definitely getting both games!

Sirfetch’d June 5th, 2019 4:45 PM

I was shocked that this is what the box legends turned out to be but I am VERY pleased! Both are pretty similar but have just enough differences to make me appreciate them both in different ways. If I had to pick a favorite it would probably be Zamazenta as of right now but it's not by much.

Yue Han June 5th, 2019 7:54 PM

I like them both. I don't really have much of a preference design-wise but I think I'll give it to Zacian just because I favour the sword over shield so I guess unless there's a significant amount of Shield exclusives I prefer to the Sword ones Sword is the one I'm getting.

Adam Levine June 5th, 2019 8:09 PM

They look alright to me. Not the best designs, but they're still good. Not the biggest fan of their names or their color schemes, though.

Ninetales June 5th, 2019 8:38 PM

I love both of them so much! Initially, I was drawn to Zamazenta but now I'd say I favor Zacian! I prefer its coloration and I think it's absolutely adorable holding that blade in its mouth! Overall both are 10/10! ^-^

PlatinumDude June 5th, 2019 10:08 PM

Both are cool, but leaning towards Zacian simply because the bonus points went to how it holds its sword despite being a quadruped.

Fairy June 5th, 2019 10:51 PM

I will only ever think of Great Grey Wolf Sif when I see dogs with swords and for that Zacian has my undying love.

Cid June 6th, 2019 4:15 PM

Initial reaction was those color schemes were awful, but I quickly warmed up to Zacian because of the memes. Zamazenta, when I looked at it earlier this morning, looked great to me now as well. I like them a lot now.

colours June 6th, 2019 5:37 PM

Thinking about it... I wonder what their signature moves would be. :o

ElBurrito June 6th, 2019 6:03 PM

Doggo + Stabby Stab = Yes

As a knife/sword collector I was already hyped for getting a game called Pokemon Sword, and now seeing that one of the legendaries uses a sword I'm even more hyped.

Zamazenta looks cool too I guess. But Zacian is where it's at.

I kind of wonder if that move-naming submission thing they had a little while back will play into it. It was a high-powered Steel move (doggos are almost certainly going to be Steel or part Steel) with recoil or something, yeah? idk what else they'd use the to-be-selected name for other than the signature move of the new mascot legendaries.
