#3. Many old Pokemon will be returning

There are going to be 200 more Pokemon returning with the new Expansion Pass. While it is not an exhaustive list of all the Pokemon, it's still progress to see many old faces return. One such Pokemon is the Galarian Slowbro, which can evolve into either Galarian Slowbro with an item from Isle of Armor or Galarian Slowking with an item from The Crown Tundra.

Not only that, but we will also see the return of the Kanto Pokemon starters, Squirtle, Bulbasaur and their evolutions. There was a leak earlier which found these Pokemon in the game files but as it turns out, there were much more than just 35 Pokemon.

We don't have a full list of all the Pokemon that will be returning to Pokemon Sword and Shield, but as we inch closer to the Expansion Pass release dates we will find out a lot more. Here is an image of some of the older Pokemon that's been confirmed.
