Update (11th Nov, 13:00 GMT):<\/strong> The Pok\u00e9mon Sword and Shield Wild Area web app is now available to explore, allowing fans to track down some of their favourite Pok\u00e9mon in a Google Maps-like diorama.<\/p>\n

You can go ahead and visit the app for yourself here<\/a>, although everything is presented in Japanese. You can explore the Wild Area using arrows to move around, or by dragging the screen to explore your current surroundings; when you spot a Pok\u00e9mon, you can click on it to reveal information and – if you’re lucky – a little animated movie which can be shared to social media.<\/p>\n

It’s not quite as exciting as catching the Pok\u00e9mon and exploring properly – as you’ll be able to do in the games – but at least it provides something for those unable to cope with the hype. Pok\u00e9mon Sword and Shield launch this Friday, 15th November.<\/p>\n
