Here’s a list of the Pokémon exclusive to either Sword or Shield

A handful of Pokémon are exclusive to either version of these Pokémon games.

Pokémon Sword and Shield are finally available to play. I got my copy as soon as midnight hit on release day and have played for several hours now. One of the things I was most interested in learning was the Pokémon that are exclusive to either version of the game.
