Shield wolf looks kinda badass

Sword wolf is "Here's a wolf. .......Uh, give it a sword, I guess?"

Shield wolf looks kind of silly

Sword wolf yes literally Sif as a pokemon that's all I wanted. Literally using a sword in its mouth is the only thing they had to do to make it great

Shield wolf's shield makes it look more like an awesome lion wolf combination while sword wolf is like one of those dogs that picks up a big stick and then tries to fit through a doorway.

I get that it's a shield so it has to be but it just looks too clumsy and bulky to me. It's not the worst it could have been by any means but it's just not for me.

Sword one though, other than I wish the color scheme was a little different, that I can work with

I get this view point, since I can see shield being seen as over designed

I'm moreso the opposite and feel like "Man people crack on stuff like Seel but are gushing over 'wolf with sword.'" The sword just feels so tacked on.

Flower/Cotton thing is a random Grass mon


When I saw the flower thing, I thought it might be the next feminine grass Pokemon (like with Roserade and Lilligant). Turns out the evolution isn't really all that feminine looking at all, though it does seem to be slightly on the feminine side.

like sword wolfs body should be a sword instead of just holding it

also hes just that Dark Souls boss

i will be the first person to say that "Wolf with Sword" looks just like a digimon

that said i love digimon and i love imagining a room full of frustrated japanese men deciding that merely giving a sword to a wolf would be the best possible design because they had already blown their load on a literal sword pokemon

This is basically what I'm getting at.

The shield is part of shield wolf's body.

Sword wolf just picked up a sword at some point

can't wait for the movie about the wolves where Ash has to find Sword Wolf's missing sword and when he picks it up he becomes king of england because the sword is actually excalibur

like i'm joking but there's maybe a 50% chance that is the plot for the movie

ok alternatively maybe shield wolf could just be holding his shield?

it just seems unfair to poor shield wolf that he has to live his whole life with an insane giant metal beard. Can he even lay down ?

i'm super into all the pokemon they revealed so far, i'm still pretty neutral on the starters but wooloo is adorable, corviknight is badass and all the others range from "ok" to "good" with none dipping into the "bad" territory

except the legendaries which are the definition of a mixed bag. i like the concepts but not the execution.

overall a solid start for a gen, tbqh this game might end up being more like X and Y in that they're mostly a testing ground for some new ideas in the first ever """console""" pokemon game. whatever follows Sword and Shield will probably be fantastic. not to say Sword and Shield will be bad, but I'm somehow more excited to see where the franchise is going.
