Pokémon Sword and Shield has version exclusive gym leaders

When it comes to Pokémon game, having certain features which are unique to one of the two versions sold has been an age-old practice that only Nintendo can get away with. Most of the time, each new Pokémon game features a selection of wildlife that are exclusive to a particular cart, resulting in players socialising and trading amongst each other so that they can fill up their Pokedex. This year, Pokémon Sword and Shield is taking that idea a step further with version exclusive gym leaders.
