Pokemon Sword & Shield: Why Game Freak Wanted To Make Pokemon Huge
(GameSpot Wii News)
 


Just before E3 2019, The Pokemon Company introduced us to the new Dynamax mechanic in Pokemon Sword and Shield. When a Pokemon Dynamaxes, it grows to an incredible size--like, building-size--and gains extra power and stronger moves. It also works similarly to Mega Evolution in that you can only use it once in a battle. Basically, Dynamaxing is the `taking it up to 11` of Pokemon games.At E3 2019, we spoke to Sword and Shield creative director Shigeru Ohmori about the thought process behind Dynamaxing.
