A new Pokemon Sword and Shield trailer is here and gives us a closer look at Pikachu, Charizard, and more! Plus, who doesn’t want to see more of the Gigantamax Pokemon, something that this latest inside look definitely doesn’t lack.

The latest Pokemon Sword and Shield trailer hails from Japan and shows off some incredible Gigantamax Charizard cinematic beauty. Though this isn’t the first time we’ve seen this particular Pokemon, this is a closer look than ever before in this highly stylized video. 

But it’s not just about the ferocious pocket monsters, the latest Pokemon Sword and Shield trailer also shows off a sneak peek at the Galar region Gym leaders as well as even more excitement for the incredible battles to come next week. 

We’ll be able to see all of the Pokemon and their trainers when Pokemon Sword and Shield releases exclusively on Nintendo Switch on November 15th. Next week is definitely going to be busy, but with things like a Gigantamax Charizard on the line, we know that the chaotic gaming plate is going to be more than worth it! 

You can learn even more about Pokemon Sword and Shield before it releases next week with the official Nintendo description below: 

“Begin your adventure as a Pokémon Trainer by choosing one of three new partner Pokémon: Grookey, Scorbunny, or Sobble. Then embark on a journey in the new Galar region, where you’ll challenge the troublemakers of Team Yell, while unraveling the mystery behind the Legendary Pokémon Zacian and Zamazenta! Explore the Wild Area, a vast expanse of land where the player can freely control the camera. Team up with three other players locally or online in the new multiplayer co-op Max Raid Battles* in which players will face off against gigantic and super-strong Pokémon known as Dynamax Pokémon. 

“Certain Pokémon can even Gigantamax to gain a new look and a powerful set of G-Max moves. But there’s more to being a champion than honing your battle skills: you can pick your own clothes and get a new hairdo while visiting the stores in town, so you can be the Trainer you want to be. Throughout your journey, you’ll encounter newly discovered Pokémon as well as familiar ones that will look a little different in their new Galarian forms! And for another way to level up your Pokémon, assign them Poké Jobs to complete. You can even play with your Pokémon in Pokémon Camp, just for fun!”
