Pokémon Sword & Shield 10 Kalos Pokémon Who Should Have Returned in Isle of Armor
The Isle of Armor brought a lot of cool stuff to Pokémon Sword & Shield, though we do wish they'd brought back these Kalos Pokémon. recently had many additional with the recent release of its new DLC, the Isle of Armor. This was well-received by most fans as many long-term players were disappointed that the entire backlog of Pokémon was not added to the game. However, some players are rather annoyed that they have to pay out additional money to recover more of the Pokédex. Though many of the older generation Pokémon were added, there are still many fan-favorites unaccounted for that players are wishing had returned in the latest DLC. Check out these ten Kalos region Pokémon that should have made the cut for the Isle of Armor DLC. THEGAMER VIDEO OF THE DAY Hawlucha
Hawlucha is a Fighting/Flying-type Pokémon that does not evolve into any other form at present. Its design appears to be based on a luchador fighter and an eagle, likely an Aztec eagle warrior. When it comes to Pokémon with , fans are often hoping that they will have new evolutionary lines added in newer titles, like some of the previous Pokémon have done before. Sword and Shield would have been a great opportunity to add new evolutions to Pokémon such as Hawlucha. Scatterbug
Scatterbug is a that evolves into its cocoon form of Spewpa at level 9, before its final evolution Vivillon at level 12. Interestingly, Scatterbug and its evolutions are the only Bug-types that were introduced in generation six. Scatterbug is a pretty adorable Pokémon and its final evolution of Vivillon is a beautiful butterfly, similar to Butterfree. Butterfree received a Gigantamax form in the base game of Sword and Shield, so it would be awesome to see Scatterbug added and possibly have a new Gigantamax butterfly arrive. Amaura
Amaura is a Rock/Ice-type Pokémon that evolves into Aurorus starting at level 39 when leveled up at night. It is a Fossil Pokémon that can be obtained by resurrecting the . No other Pokémon in the entire series has the same Rock/Ice-typing as Amaura and Aurorus. Amaura's design appears to be based on the Amargasaurus dinosaur, which also had large sail-like features. Though fans would love to have seen some past Fossil Pokémon return in the Isle of Armor, it's more likely that Amaura will return in The Crown Tundra due to its Ice typing. Tyrunt
Tyrunt is a Rock/Dragon-type Pokémon that evolves into Tyrantum starting at level 39 when leveled up during the day. Like Amaura, Tyrunt is one of the of generation six and can be obtained by resurrecting the Jaw Fossil. Tyrunt and Tyrantum's dual-typing of Rock/Dragon is also unique to this evolutionary family, much like Amaura and Aurorus's unique typing. Tyrunt's design appears to be based on the dinosaur Tyrannosaurus. After the disappointing abominations of Fossil Pokémon that were introduced in Sword and Shield, fans are desperate to have some of the older ones back. Furfrou
Furfrou is a that doesn't have any other evolutions but does have multiple forms. Furfrou has nine different forms in total based on which type of trim it receives: Star, Diamond, Heart, Pharaoh, Kabuki, La Reine, Matron, Dandy, and Debutante Trim. Furfrou reverts to its natural state after five days from its last trim if it not deposited within a PC box. Fans love Pokémon with multiple forms and it would be great if not only Furfrou was added, but that it also received some new Galarian based trim styles. Skiddo
Skiddo is a that evolves into Gogoat at level 32. Though Skiddo is based on a goat, the style of their horns makes them appear like bikes, which is fitting as in the anime the characters ride upon them. This adorable Pokémon is a fan-favorite due to its cute appearance. As Sword and Shield's location is inspired by the English countryside, it would make sense for this goat Pokémon to return as it would fit in nicely with this theme. Litleo
Litleo is a Fire/Normal-type Pokémon that evolves into Pyroar at level 35. Pyroar looks different depending on its gender, having a full mane for a male and a swept-back hairstyle for a female. Naturally, this Pokémon is based on a lion cub and its evolutions are based on adult lions. No other Pokémon in the franchise has the same typing combo of Fire/Normal as Litleo and Pyroar, making it pretty unique. It's a firm fan-favorite due to its cute design and rather awesome looking evolution. Chespin
Chespin is one of the Kalos starter Pokémon and takes the role of the . It evolves into Quilladin at level 16, before its final form of Chesnaught at level 36, a Grass/Fighting-type. Chespin, along with the other two starters, Xerneas, and Yveltal, were among the first Pokémon to be revealed for generation six in 2013. Interestingly, Chespin is the only Grass-type starter that Ash Ketchum hasn't caught in the Pokémon anime. Chespin's design appears to be influenced by hedgehogs as well as chestnut shoots. Fennekin
Fennekin is the Fire-type starter Pokémon for Kalos and it evolves into Braixen at level 16, and then Delphox at level 36, which is a Fire/Psychic-type. Starter Pokémon are generally very popular among fans and so it's only natural that players want them to be included into Sword and Shield as soon as possible Fennekin is based on the Fennec Fox and also falls into the category of "Fox Pokémon." Other Pokémon to share this category are Vulpix, Ninetales, Nickit, and Thievul. Froakie
Froakie is the for the Kalos region and takes the form of an adorable blue frog. It evolves into Frogadier at level 16, before evolving into its final form of Greninja starting at level 36, a Water/Dark-type. Its final evolution of Greninja is a firm fan-favorite within the Pokémon community and makes Froakie a particular popular starter. Additionally, Froakie has the highest individual stat out of all of the starter Pokémon within the franchise with a base Speed of 71.
