Is your favorite in yet?
 
Has your favorite Pokemon been confirmed for the games yet? Or are you like me and still waiting for it to be in? You can refer to this Daily article here if you are unsure if your favorite has been confirmed!

Palamon October 27th, 2019 6:27 PM

Treecko hasn't... but at least Sneasel and Litwick have! I really want Breloom to be confirmed the most, though, please, Game Freak.

PageEmp October 27th, 2019 9:54 PM

I don’t have a favourite mon but I don’t care if one of my favourites don’t make it honestly. I’m just here to enjoy the game rather than to see mons I like making the cut.

Raicheot October 28th, 2019 2:01 AM

Looks like most of mine are in so I'm happy about that, I prefer having a few familiar faces in my squad when playing a new game

Sheep October 28th, 2019 2:04 AM

Still no news on Mareep. :< I know we have Wooloo but Mareep fills a different role with its different type and would fit really well in Galar being a sheep so....idk

colours October 28th, 2019 2:24 AM

no, and to be honest? i don't expect it to. when it comes to mythicals, the only real way to know whether or not they're in is through some sort of giveaway event or something. so no, i don't expect Shaymin to get in unless TPC does a mythical event/giveaway with it at some point in the future.

NikolaP October 28th, 2019 3:38 AM

Oddly enough, no Abra yet. Being a classic native to almost all regions, it probably will make it, in which case I'll finally have it as a regular (always had one, but never used it on the main team).

If by some miracle Abra aren't native to Galar... Well, too bad, I'll get another Psychic type. Maybe a new one.

Arjay October 28th, 2019 3:49 AM

Nope, no Poliwhirl yet. :(

lilaë21 October 28th, 2019 4:00 AM

I have various favourites, though the majority of them hasn't been confirmed:

- Meganium is my absolute favourite but as a starter evolution I don't think it'll be in. Same for Primarina and Typhlosion;
- Lanturn, Reuniclus, and Litwick are in;
- Jumpluff, Altaria, Corsola, Crawdaunt, Furret, Ledyba, Sunkern, Lilligant, Volcarona, and Alomomola aren't in;
- even my two Gen I favourites, Victreebel and Dewgong, aren't in, and the same goes for Politoed and Slowking which have Gen I pre-evos.

bobandbill October 28th, 2019 4:01 AM

Ludicolo has, so I'm happy there. Some others I like have also been seen e.g. Lapras, while others like Shinx are yet to be seen.

Yvejuzul October 28th, 2019 4:13 AM

I am wondering if the Slowpoke line will even make it into Galar. The same case with the Spehal line, for that matter.

I am happy that my other favorites, Abomasnow and Shuckle are in at the very least.

Clarabelle October 28th, 2019 5:01 AM

My absolute favorite pokemon ever Vulpix and Ninetales have been confirmed to be in the new game and I'm really happy about it!

coeurdhiver October 28th, 2019 5:42 AM

Like most people, I have several favorites, but most of them seem to have been confirmed : Oddish and Cherubi are both in, and so are Honedge and Mareanie and a few others, so there's that going for me ! Medicham, Closyter, and Bulbasaur though, not yet...

EmTheGhost October 28th, 2019 3:07 PM

It's such a cold feeling, having to ask this...

I don't even expect Necrozma and Lunala to be in the game, being past-gen Legendaries, let alone a fusion mechanic when they're not even putting in Megas, so my absolute favorite Pokemon is right out, but as for my non-legendary favorites...Oshawott, no (and will probably only make it if all the starter lines are in), Yamask, no, Staraptor, no, Zoroark, no...Ditto's in, though! And all the Eeveelutions, and some others a little lower on my very long favorites list.

CiCi October 28th, 2019 4:55 PM

Nothing on Houndour and Houndoom yet, unfortunately, nor Murkrow and Honchkrow. Sad to see the Garchomp line hasn't been confirmed but I've got high hopes since it's a pretty popular line. At least I'll have Tyranitar, though.

Glad to see that Seismitoad, Ferrothorn, Growlithe and Arcanine, Weavile, and Croagunk and Toxicroak are going to be in it. And of course Raichu.

faf October 28th, 2019 8:12 PM

Scrafty was recently confirmed to be in because of the TV commercial showing Scraggy.

A handful of my other favourites make it as well (Hydreigon, Heliolisk, Noivern) but no dice for more of my favourites.

LilyGardy October 29th, 2019 7:03 AM

There has been no confirmation of Lilligant being in Galar yet. I think she may not be in as the Tsareena line has already been confirmed who are somewhat similar to the Flowering Pokemon have been confirmed to be in.

Also Bellossom is confirmed to be in Galar. Bellossom is similar to Lilligant as it is a Grass type based on a dancer.

Some of my other favourite Pokemon have been confirmed in already such as Gardevoir, Vileplume, Gothitelle (Exclusive to Sword) and Mandibuzz.

Sydian October 29th, 2019 2:15 PM

alolan dugtrio is on sight

alisaie October 29th, 2019 9:03 PM

i don't know about some of my other favourites but the only one i really cared about was bellossom after it got shafted from tropical alola and it's in so i'm good

SirNoctowl October 29th, 2019 9:13 PM

My favorite, Noctowl, is in. Hoping it gets a Galarian form though!

Trashman_bencc October 30th, 2019 1:15 AM

Still waiting out for my boy dunsparce, but at least weezing is in, and with a fancy top hat!

maxtheevee October 30th, 2019 10:15 AM

yes evee is in

Labbed October 30th, 2019 10:20 AM

Mawile is but as an exclusive for the version I wasn't going to get -_-

Storm-DC October 31st, 2019 5:18 AM

I have a Starmie and Scizor that I'm really attachted to. Both have yet to be confirmed.

ClassyPolar October 31st, 2019 1:11 PM

Toxicroak would be my fave, it is already in and I'm happy

Tentacruel would be my next most wanted just because I love it as a Competitive Pokémon

Nah October 31st, 2019 5:28 PM

Zekrom's not on the list rn and mascot legends are probably not likely to survive Dexit this generation, so nah

they don't even have the next few for me

but there is Hydreigon at least

icycatelf November 1st, 2019 10:00 AM

No sign of Dunsparce, Wartortle or Mothim yet, but I think it's pretty safe to assume that the Squirtle line will be there. We haven't seen any of the Sandshrew (normal or Alolan) or Porygon lines either.

Cherrim November 1st, 2019 1:00 PM

Cherubi is in, so I can only assume Cherrim is.

I haven't seen Nosepass or Probopass, though, and I suspect they won't make the cut. :<

Flowerchild November 1st, 2019 6:17 PM

Bellossom is IN and so is my other fav Farfetch'd who even gets an evo! hell yea

Imperator161 November 2nd, 2019 6:00 PM

Blastoise hasn’t been confirmed yet, as far as I’m aware. (I guess there’s a supposed chart of included Pokémon floating around, and it’s on there, but enough issues have been raised about it that I’m not sure if that image is fake.)

I’m hoping for the best, as Charizard made it, but I also know from past experience that Charizard tends to get preferential treatment. So we’ll see what happens.

At least my second favorite (Pikachu) is unlikely to ever get cut.

Ronnerino November 3rd, 2019 6:13 AM

I loved Equine pokemon so G Rapidash was a great addition

TailsMK4 November 3rd, 2019 11:03 AM

At this point, I doubt the Azurill line made it, despite how Azumarill actually can be played both offensively (like a sword...), and defensively (like a shield...). While Ninetales made it in, I find it hard to even play fan games when the former is excluded, so I may pass on this game.

VisionofMilotic November 3rd, 2019 11:17 AM

Not yet. Surprise, surprise my favorite pokemon isn't in the Hoenn dex :P

lilaë21 November 4th, 2019 5:01 AM

So with what seems to be the definitive Galar Dex list that has been circulating in the last few hours, only four out of my 25 favourite Pokémon are in. And the amount of cut Pokémon seems to be even worse than expected...

Marnie November 4th, 2019 6:04 AM

I've just seen the presumed definitive Galar Dex cut picture and 30 of the ones I like didn't make it to Sword and Shield.

R.I.P. :
Spoiler:
Bulbasaur, Nidoran, Zubat, Abra, Slowpoke, Magnemite, Grimer, Cubone, Chansey, Kangaskhan, Starmie, Scyther, Pinsir, Tauros, Porygon, Aerodactyl, Dratini, Gligar, Heracross, Skarmory, Phanpy, Buneary, Bagon, Beldum, Gible, Venipede, Sandile, Larvesta, Klefki and Rockruff.


Now I'm just sad.

PageEmp November 4th, 2019 6:45 AM

Like I said, I don’t care, I’m just playing to enjoy the game. But alternatively if we could use this thread for least favourites that aren’t gonna make it, Imma just throw in the fact that we are this far in and the floating keys have not been confirmed to be in the game yet, and I am satisfied. Please never let those keys in.

LilyGardy November 4th, 2019 7:48 AM

Lilligant is not in. I thought as it was not announced with it's version counterpart Cottonee that she had a Galarian form but she's not even in the game. :(

I wouldn't mind if we could import Pokemon that didn't make it in when Home was ready but that's not the case. I will not be able to use Lilligant in a Switch game for a long time (She won't be in Gen 4 remakes either) and there is no good reason why that should be the case.

thedestinedblade November 4th, 2019 12:40 PM

No, my Crayola dragon didn't make it. Thankfully, I found a ridiculously suitable replacement, lol.

EmTheGhost November 4th, 2019 11:48 PM

Spoiler:
Well, if the Pokedex leak is accurate, Jynx isn't in...Well, guess that's it for her (barring another Kanto game or a miraculous turnaround on no future games having all the Pokemon). Guess that's what I get for being a fan of probably the single Pokemon Game Freak would most want to forget existed even before they actually had the opportunity. Sorry Lola 😢

Iceshadow3317 November 5th, 2019 1:30 AM

Braviary and Bisharp are in which is awesome. I am a bit disappointed that Garchomp, Gogoat, and Krookodile aren't in, but I do love a lot of the new pokemon. So I am not massively disappointed. I love so many pokemon, but gives me a chance to think about playing with pokemon I never thought of using.

And just a note, I freaking love how so many overused pokemon are out. And I love how Vanilluxe made it in :D. Do with their was different forms of it though.

Brendino November 7th, 2019 12:05 AM

Even though I don't know if I like the Dynamax/Gigantamax gimmick, I'm still happy that they're showing Butterfree love after being forgot about for so long!

Looks like they did away with my boy Azumarill though, which I'm a little disappointed about...

Inkwriter November 7th, 2019 4:39 AM

I'm a big fan of snakes, but it looks likes the Snivy line won't make it in, which is a pity. If the leaks are to be trusted though, there are some neat serpentine Pokémon in the game, so I'm not too bummed.

Maserati777 November 14th, 2019 7:59 AM

My favorite Pokemon are Ninetales and Vileplume and both are in. But I’m not sure if I’ll get the game yet.

Cubeth November 14th, 2019 12:26 PM

Milotic was announced in the first trailer and I know Salazzle is in. No Honchkrow nor Skitty tho :why:
