                                                    Short-term notes on new Pokémon for Sword and Shield, June 5, 2019

                                                    Wooloo:
                                                    *Wooloo's name, typing, abilities, and height/weight strongly implies it will have another evolution, which will likely give it a new type.
                                                    *Since its description notes it rolling away, it will likely get Rollout and Defense Curl like Skiddo.
                                                    *Basically it is just another Skiddo.
                                                    *It shares the same weight as Pikachu, Magnemite, Sentret, Smoochum, Helioptile and Yungoos.
                                                    *Its Fluffy means weakness to Fire, which might imply it will get either an unrelated type, or Grass.
                                                    *Its Egg Group will likely be Field.

                                                    Gossifleur-Eldegoss:
                                                    *Their names comes from a cotton genus.
                                                    *Gossifleur's name is obviously French, because this is Kalos 2.0
                                                    *Their signature ability Cotton Down implies we will get more Cotton Pokémon in the future generations. Great/sarcasm]
                                                    *Eldegoss' weight is the same as Exeggcute, Torchic, Sewaddle and Scatterbug, strongly implying it is not the final form.
                                                    *However, its height is the same as Cherrim, so there is a low chance it might be.
                                                    *One of its Max attacks uses mushrooms from Spore, which implies Powder moves will gain perfect accuracy when Dynamaxed.
                                                    *Both Cottonee and Hoppip-lines are maxed out in terms of Abilities, so Swirlix, Mareep, Swablu and Furfrou are the only likely Cotton Down obtainers, which is to say it will likely remain as a signature Ability for Gossifleur-line since none of these guys are Grass-type.

                                                    Dreadnaw:
                                                    *It shares the same height as Kecleon, Nosepass and Basculin and its weight is similar to Rhyhorn, so it is more than likely a single stager.
                                                    *Its ability implies it will learn Ice Fang, Crunch, Bite and possibly Poison Fang.
                                                    *Its Egg Groups will likely be Water 1 and Monster.
                                                    *Not much to say here really. It is an angry snapping turtle. At least it is primary Water instead of primary Rock.

                                                    Corviknight:
                                                    *Despite its design, it is actually Flying/Steel, inverse typing of Skarmory's Steel/Flying.
                                                    *Its size is the same as Mega Pidgeot, and its weight is the same as Crobat and Quagsire.
                                                    *He's a big guy.
                                                    *He is seen using Brave Bird or a similar move to Sawk, so he will likely be physically offensive compared to Skarmory and Celesteela.

                                                    Zacian and Zamazenta:
                                                    *Zacian is holding a sword, while Zamazenta is a shield.
                                                    *Zacian looks more sleek-looking, while Zamazenta is more bulky, so the difference will likely be on Speed.
                                                    *Their names refer to Saltire(Blue+White, or possibly Scottish blue+Irish green) and Union Jack(blue+red)
                                                    *Zamazenta has the samurai ponytail.
                                                    *Their designs are more based off Romus and Remulus than anything British, alluding to Roman rule in Britain.
                                                    *Their wings are likely a reference to various guardian canines in Asian mythologies like shiba inu and various shvan in Hindu mythology, but their design is most likely based on the Enfield beast, one of the heraldic beasts of England, though it actually originates from Ireland.
                                                    *Their Asian designs are a reference to the fact that Leon, our lovely Galarian Champion, is Indian.
