There will also be no further online competitions, though you will still be able to host your own friendly competitions with other players. Pokemon Sword and Shield will no longer receive online updates or events after next month. And the raid battle system was a good idea but in practice they’re pretty dull, I hope they’re improved in Scarlet and Violet.
@Rob3008 @YoshiF2 I can partly understand what @LexKitteh is saying. Yes, you can transfer and house those Pokèmon to Pokèmon Home. However, there’s no guarantee those Pokèmon will be included or programmed into any upcoming games. I can understand the frustration, especially now they’re asking you to pay a fee to house your Pokèmon and for some, with nothing to do with them. I used to care to catch ALL the legendaries and version exclusives in every game, but knowing they’ll be trapped in Sword and Shield only and not transferable to future games, what’s the point?? The lack of National Dex has legit killed my interest in trying to catch them all.
Signups will end Oct. 27, with the event following from Oct. 28 to Oct. 30. The most desirable and prized card of the set is none other than Machamp V, which is surprising since it didn’t start that way. Sure, the artwork is cute and cartoony, but the card is not that powerful for players of the TCG. There is speculation that the drastic increase in this card’s value and desirability comes from the fact that a few collectors bought out most copies when the card was still cheaper.
It worked itself out with the remakes of red and blue shortly after, but still. There are like 70 not included in the switch games after gen 9 and probably will be by time dlc is done. I hope Scarlet & Violet feels more rewarding with their evented raid events.

Pokémon Sword and Shield will receive one final update on November 1, after which the game will see no new content.
Pokémon games don’t have numbers at the end of their names but if they did 2019’s Sword and Shield would be Pokémon 8 and this year’s upcoming Scarlet and Violet would be Pokémon 9.
You know the holiday season is near when the new LEGO Advent Calendars come out to play. The 2022 LEGO Advent Calendars went up for sale in late September, and today Walmart is taking an extra 20% off the new 2022 Star Wars, Marvel , and Harry Potter editions. Each set comes with 24 minifigures, one for each day leading up to Christmas. That way you’ll have fun assembling a little kit each and every day instead of waiting it out for a singular moment.
The November 1 update will feature one final Wild Area News event, which previously took place once every month. The event will add Pokémon that aren’t usually available, such as Gigantimax Snorlax. It seems that the Pokémon Company is moving on from Pokémon Sword and Shield, ahead of the release of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet on November 18, with a final update for the games planned to release on November 1.
In the meantime, registration is currently underway for Pokemon Sword and Shield’s final online competition, the Ultimate Finale. This event will feature six-on-six double battles with no restrictions on how many legendary or mythical Pokemon you can have on your team. Registration ends Oct. 27, with the event following from Oct. 28 to Oct. 30.
