Pictures of download cards from Japan have begun surfacing online for Pokémon Sword and Shield, revealing the upcoming duo of Pokémon games’ file size. Each version requires at least 10.3GB of free space to download, which means you’re going to need a ton of space if you’re planning to download both versions. The cards also reveal more Pokémon from previous generations that are part of the Galar Pokédex, including Turtonator, Drampa and Mandibuzz. Meanwhile, Natu, Xatu, Dhelmise, Swinub, Piloswine and Mamoswine have also been confirmed. For comparison’s sake, Pokémon Let’s Go Pikachu and Let’s Go Eevee require at least 4.5GB of free space to download each. Pokémon Sword and Shield are set to launch worldwide on November 15 for Nintendo Switch.
