Pokemon Sword and Shield Starters[edit]

Below are details on all the Pokemon Sword and Shield Starters.

Grookey[edit]

Grookey: Gen 8’s Grass-type starter is described as “a mischievous Pokémon full of boundless curiosity.”

Details

Below are some additional details on Grookey from the official Pokemon website.

A stick that has special effects

The stick held by Grookey was originally a branch from the forest where troops of Grookey live, but it’s no longer a simple branch.
The stick has gained special powers after being exposed to the energy within Grookey’s body.

It can give energy to plants

Its green fur creates energy from sunlight.
Wilted flowers and leaves have been seen to regain their color when Grookey drums with its stick near them.

Scorbunny[edit]

Scorbunny: Gen 8’s Fire-type starter Pokémon is described as “always running about, bursting with energy.”

Details

Below are some additional details on Scorbunny from the official Pokemon website.

Its powerful legs are its pride

Scorbunny uses its powerful legs to run and jump around its opponents, confusing and disorienting them. *The soles of its feet can become very hot, and Scorbunny can kick opponents to damage and burn them, too!

Scorbunny‘s second heart—its “fire sac”

Scorbunny has a fire sac in its chest, which contains viscous fire energy.
If Scorbunny is able to increase its heart rate and body temperature by running around and warming up properly, the true power of its fire energy will be awakened and its physical capabilities will greatly increase.

Sobble[edit]

Sobble

Water-type	Water Lizard Pokemon
Known Moves	Ability
?	Torrent

Sobble: Gen 8’s Water-type starter is “a bit timid, shooting out attacks as it hides itself in the water.”

Details

It disappears when it touches water

When Sobble touches water, its body changes its pattern and color, allowing it to blend into its surroundings.
Sobble is a bit timid, and so if it gets nervous or embarrassed, it will secrete the water within its body like sweat and disappear into the surroundings.

Tears as potent as 100 onions

Sobble’s tears are capable of making others cry. This effect is so strong, it is said that its tears are as potent as 100 onions.
If Sobble feels threatened, it will start to bawl and spread its tears around the area, causing everyone around it to start crying uncontrollably. Sobble will then use this distraction as a chance to escape.
