The Pokémon Sword and Shield Nintendo Direct is just a few hours away, so no matter what timezone you are in and how early it is for all those in the US, its time to get excited!

The Direct promises to reveal a bunch of new information about the games in roughly 15 minutes, but Nintendo and The Pokémon Company have been tight-lipped on what we can expect to see.

Some things that we hope to find out though are a release date and some new creatures that will appear in the Galor region. We also expect to see more of the world as a whole and get an idea on what our quest is this time around.

Any new features for the first ever home console core RPG series that uses the full power of the Nintendo Switch will also be a welcome announcement, but of course, we could get 15 minutes of nothing— it has happened before.

In short, try not to excite yourself up over the announcement and open your find to any possibilities. There is always E3 next week, after all, to learn more information.
