How did they get away with this
>>59015507Can I get a quick rundown on these two?
>How did they get away with thisSword and Shield in a nutshell
>>59015509Their names are something like Swordward and Shieldbert. They legally rule galar as part of the royal family or some shit
>>59016615inb4 in Legends Galar their ancestors were just a bunch of peasants
>>59016625I mean, that’s kind of the plot of the entire game. Their family was nobodies who got all the credit for the two dogs + Calyrex beating down Eternatus. The post game is them showing up to “restore their honor” after you make everyone realize it was the dogs who saved Galar 1000 years ago
>>59015507>Gamefreak: the subway bros are too popular, how do we avoid replicating that success?
>>59015507The whole game could have used their goofier tone instead of whatever the fuck Rose was supposed to be.
>>59015507They stand out as the worst designed human characters in the franchise.
>>59015507they may have gone too far in a couple of places
>>59015509Minor antagonists from SS postgame. They are genuine, legal ancestors of the Galar king and believed that because of that legendaries belong to them.Not super fleshed out, but they were much better than PLEASE LET ME SUMMON THE APOCALYPTIC LOVECRAFTIAN ENTITY OTHERWISE WE WILL RUN OUT OF ENERGY IN... UHHH... 1000 YEARS!
