Pokemon Sword and Shield Direct airing on June 5th

Seems like the Pokemon Company is giving quite a heads up for this Pokemon Direct.

Tune in on June 5 at 6 a.m. PT for roughly 15 minutes of new information on #PokemonSwordShield for #NintendoSwitch in a livestreamed Pokémon Direct presentation.https://t.co/d1Xx3bDbhq pic.twitter.com/sNypwrc09d

I'm guessing they give such a heads up in case theres no news in the Pokemon Press Conference. I'm guessing this will show off new Pokemon, the towns and a few characters.

Here's the video.



I like how they made the camera more moveable and the wild area is there way of kind of putting an open world element into the game. I  also like how there trying to make Nintendo Switch Online more worth it with raids being a thing now.

The wild area is really cool. This makes it sorta halfway open world, which will be fun to explore, but also will still have a path through the world and straightforward story. I like it! Definitely planning on getting one of these when they come out.
