News: Gigantamax Snorlax revealed for Pokémon Sword and Shield

We found out from datamining but now it's announced for real! Check the trailer* and find out further details in the article.

*Game Footage not final. Wait, what?

Gigantamax Snorlax looks really cool, especially now that I see it in full size (and not as an icon). We don't have Dynamax Torterra in Galar, but now we do have a worthy equivalent. Considering it's available during the holiday season, I'm sure I'll have time to get one.

Also, nice to finally see the starters "for real". In addition to gun fingers and gliding membranes, Inteleon apparently also has special eye lenses (I interpret that as night vision eyelids, heat vision eyelids, X-ray eyelids... No wonder its eye coverings are so thick, it has to fit all of that somewhere 😄) and a knife (!) hidden in its tail - it just keeps getting better and better!

I can't believe Snorlax killed Torterra

I'll def be trying for this cute torterra wannabe, lol
Neat design!

Think this is the first time they've released news on the games after the games were released. Told myself to only look at news if it was official so I'm kinda glad I get to see the evolutions *officially*.

Torterralax is cool, can't wait to get it!

Zacian and Zamazenta's abilities will be useless in future games because dynamax is probably never coming back again.
Then again, zacian and zamazenta will probably not be coming back either so... it all works out?


Giga snorlax is an affront to torterra.

OMG, I didn't realize this until I saw a comment pointing it out:

Snorlax used to block the route.
Now it is the route.
