What changes between Sword and Shield Pokémon? The new adventure of the Game Freak saga arrives on Nintendo Switch as usual with a double version that offers players the possibility to choose between two similar experiences in the base, but filled with some differences especially as regards the Pokémon that can be captured in the two versions . The choice seems difficult given that both versions have a very interesting list of exclusive Pokémon in perspective for the composition of a heterogeneous and / or competitive team.
