Hello. As all hell is breaking loose and the people at Centro refuse to divulge on their post-SWSH information, I figured I would step in where they have failed
>The 2021 game is not Let’s Go 2, Sinnoh remakes, or gen 9, nor is it something akin to “Ultra”
>The 2021 game is mainline
>This game will take place in the most ambitious setting of any Pokemon game, being Galar several decades into the future
>Climate issues have wreaked havoc on the region, completely restructuring almost all of it
>Due to the climate issues, the whole region is now one big energy spot, meaning maxing can be done anywhere
>All Pokemon will be in the game and there is no DLC
>Mega evolution and Z moves will be in the post game, but no one new ones will exist
>Several new Galar forms, including Fletchling, Gligar, and Frillish will be added.
>A new form of maxing known as Turbomax will be added, which is like a form of mega evolution that instead depicts how the Pokemon may appear in the distant future; things like Tyranitar getting a mecha godzilla one for example. Types may change and TMax grants new abilities applicable to your whole team instead of moves
>The evil team is a normal one, being Team Horizon, a group that believes sending people and Pokemon to their colonies in space is the only true way to avoid the impending energy crisis
>Team Horizon’s leader is the descendant of Sordward and Shielbert
>Hop is the professor, filling the old man niche, with Klara/Avery depending on the version being the 8th gym leader
>Most of the region is now in the Wild Area format, akin to Crown Tundra or Isle of Armor
>The two SWSH DLC islands and more islands will be in the post game, but there will be no DLC or whole extra regions
>Glastrier and Spectrier receive Sword and Shield forms respectively and take the role as cover legends, with Zacian and Zamazenta being postgame, available in both (dogs, not horses)
>N, Colress, Cyrus, and Steven Stone all make notable appearances in the story
