Different Gym Leaders
As of the time of writing, there have only been two confirmed version-exclusive gym leaders in the Galar region for Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield.
People who pick up Pokemon Sword will be able to face off against Bea, the fighting-type gym leader who’s main Pokemon is a Hitmontop.
And for those that own Pokemon Sheild, you’ll be able to battle against Allister, that creepy trainer in the mask who excels in using ghost-types –he has a Mimikyu in his party but not much else is known.
There will be other version-exclusive gym leaders for both games and once we have the info, we will be sure to update this article so that you all can see what the differences will be.
It seems that the only differences between Sword and Shield are the Pokemon you can catch and the gym leaders to battle, but if we find out any new information, this list will be updated ASAP.
