Hey there this is Patteyayo and welcome to the stream or VOD if you are watching later.
This is a Letsplay of Pokemon Sword, the newest Pokemon game and the first official generation to come out on the Nintendo Switch Console.
Pokemon was a big part of my childhood in which I played generation one and two. My first starter was Squirtle in the blue edition and I also took on Totodile in the silver version.
I havn't played a pokemon game since so I'm really excited for this Playthrough of Pokemon Sword and hope we have lots of fun together.

Several new features for the games are also firsts for the series, including, cooperative raid encounters, akin to those seen in Pokémon Go; the Wild Area, a fully explorable open world area with free camera movement and dynamic weather which has implications on which Pokémon species appear at a given time; and "Dynamax" and "Gigantamax" forms for Pokémon. The latter two enable Pokémon to temporarily grow to a giant size, with Gigantamax being limited to select Pokémon and feature different forms from the Pokémon's normal appearance. A new mechanic called "Poké Jobs" tasks the player's Pokémon with completing requests, such as assisting in construction or cooking, to gain experience or rare items. In addition, Pokémon native to the game's region will be able to be transferred to the games from the Nintendo 3DS app Pokémon Bank, Pokémon Go, and Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! via the Pokémon Home service. Pokémon Gyms make a return after being absent in Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon. As is typical with the series, the two games will have version exclusive features between them, such as available Pokémon and, for the first time, Gym Leaders. Some features from previous entries, such as Mega Evolution and Z-Moves, will be absent from the games. A 'Camp' mode is introduced which allows the player to spend some time interacting or playing with their Pokémon and to cook different types of curry which provide bonuses for Pokémon. New customization options for the player character have been added, like outerwear and other accessories. The PC box can be accessed in some areas outside of Pokémon Centers.

Sword and Shield take place in the Galar region, a large, narrow expanse of land and one of many regions in the Pokémon world. Game director Shigeru Ohmori described it as a more modern setting. The region itself is inspired by Great Britain, with its many landmarks resembling places such as the Houses of Parliament and the Cerne Abbas Giant. The Galar region begins with sprawling countryside towns featuring cottages and Victorian architecture to the south. An Industrial Revolution-like city with steampunk-style elements populates the center of the region. Many of the region's towns and cities feature Pokémon Gyms stylized like football stadiums. Snow-covered mountains dominate much of the northern areas of the region. Encompassing a large portion of the region is the Wild Area, an open world area with numerous Pokémon species roaming. Weather across the Wild Area changes regularly. Like with Pokémon Sun and Moon, Pokémon previously introduced in older games, such as Weezing, gain regional Galarian Forms with new typings and appearances. Some Pokémon, such as Linoone, even gain regional evolutions.
