The wait hasn’t stopped fans who are hungry from information from searching, though. There have been many leaks but there is no way to know how true these are except for the credibility the leaks seem to have given. These leaks also suggested a new type of Evolution akin to Mega Evolution and Alola Forms.
However the leaks don’t stop coming. There have been so many leaks before and since the announcement of Pokemon Sword and Shield and only a few seem to be possibly legitimate. A post from Reddit showed a release schedule (all in Japanese)
The translation of the image is below (thanks /u/notwithflames):
May 15 - Boxart reveal in CorocoroJune 11 - AforementionedJune 27 - A panel at Salt Lake City Comic ConJuly 10 - Something about Funko PopsJuly 20 - A panel at San Diego Comic Con that’s around the same time as a Pokemon Direct with MasudaAugust 29 - Panel at a PAX?September 12 to 14 - Tokyo Game Show if I’m reading that correctlySeptember 15 - Some more CorocoroOctober 4 - New York Comic Con and some promotional tourOctober 11 - More promotional tours, one in Europe and the other in one of the Americas, probably South America given the week priorOctober 12 - Something at PAX Australia and an Australian promotional tourNovember 2 - An event for Nintendo and Game Freak at EGX BerlinNovember 15 to 20 - The event window for Sword and Shield’s release
The posting dates show a lot of “2010s” and the Japanese is apparently a little sloppy. We don’t quite know the legitimacy of this post but if there is a reveal on May 15 then maybe there is credibility to this post.
