Pokemon is one game which is consistently performing out of the way. Hundreds of gamers across the globe are busy playing the game without any hesitation.
Most of them want to grab all the new features and characters as soon as the developers introduce them Since most players want to get every new attribute, it is not sometimes possible for everyone to grab the new features. At other times, Pokemon irk users with its delay in major strategies that take time to reach users.
The latest is that Pokemon Sword and Shield has been a hit ever since it introduced. They have become a hit which is evident from a number of articles written on the topic for the last 6 years or so. Most of the time, it happened after the info was leaked in some way or the other.
The present context of things is nothing to relate with the leak. In relation to the upcoming Pokémon Gen 10 hype, there have been rumors regarding gamers are now looking forward to embrace voice acting in 2026.
The above discussion has now come to a halt and continues to revolve around Sword and Shield cutscene that fans can’t seem to get out of their heads. It’s to be seen where the discussion goes on from here.
This is one of the most embarrassing moments I've ever experienced in a video game. I genuinely cringed during this cutscene.
This is the biggest media franchise in the world. This is inexcusable for Gen 10. It NEEDS to have voice acting. https://t.co/iOl0i0GBdN pic.twitter.com/NUu8xvtFtT

There has been so many tweets posted by various users. One of them simply decided to reply @NintyPrime regarding his injury. It was all about with a reason regarding Pokemon fans to grab voice acting in the future titles.
It has happened many times before. But it is the first time the discussion is going on at this time for so long. This is quite obvious after the tweet got more than 50,000 likes while narrating its weak presentation.
In the above context, you can see a 17 second clip going viral comprising the very own Pokémon Sword and Shield’s Gym Leader, Piers looking forward to take the role of none other than his hand’s frontman.
The enviornment filled up with all the music, drums, guitars, and more. Looking at so much of fun, the crowd comprising Team Yell members can be seen cheering all the way down.
Fans are poking fun at Piers for his “singing,” which, hilariously, isn’t even there, Pokémon Sword and Shield never had voice acting to begin with.
The entire concert looks like a big event but I never took it seriously though. It’s mainly because I felt quite ignorant because of all that. To be precise, the concert scene never moved me in any way at the time of playing the game.
Also, I spent all the time playing the game and nothing else. It just happened that the sound of mic made me screech in the end. Here I must admit that without a voice, the scene feels strangely hollow and surreal.
Regarding the most loved Pokemon games, there has been a debate going on at least for now that Game Freak will finally embrace voice acting as early as in 2026.

In the next tweet, @Stuffette (as shown above) can be seen making it feel as many as three times that both Pokemon Black and White along with their sequels comprised voice acting.
In other words, you just can’t ignore the above fact about their voice acting. The feature readily comprised of all the music followed by drums, guitars, and more. All I can say is that I simply adore Gen 5. As you see, It simply underscores how the modern Switch titles still lack anything close to real voice acting.
