''Sun'' and ''Moon'' were downright LovecraftLite with their themes [[SurpriseCreepy despite their cheerful aesthetic]], so why shouldn't ''Sword and Shield'' follow the pattern?

[[WMG:The Charmander that the player receives from Leon after becoming champion is the offspring of Leon’s Charizard.]]
Since Galar has nurseries, it wouldn’t be surprising if Leon had caught himself a Ditto and has bred his Pokémon with it. Plus, the Charmander you receive is capable of Gigantamaxing much like its father can.

[[WMG: Eternatus and [[VideoGame/PokemonXAndY Zygarde]] are enemies.]]
In many ways Eternatus is an EvilCounterpart to Zygarde. Zygarde and Eternatus are [[DraconicAbomination bizarre and otherworldly dragons]] who have "spread themselves" (Zygarde has its cells, while Eternatus has its energy leaking across the Galar region to cause Dynamax Evolution) and who's complete form is a lot stronger than their base form (100% Zygarde and Eternamax Eternatus). However while Zygarde is a protector of nature native to the world, Eternatus is an alien beast akin to radiation. One balances the world, while the other is a force of imbalance. And Zygarde's Ground typing is a contrast/deterrent against Eternatus' Ground typing. The reason why Eternatus fell into a slumber for so long wasn't because it was completely knocked out by its arrival, but because Zygarde fought an already injured Eternatus so it'd fall into a slumber, 20,000 years ago.

Why didn't Zygarde return 3000 years ago to stop Eternatus again? Because it's the same timeframe as the war AZ was part of. As such, Zygarde was distracted dealing with its native region of Kalos, which led to Zacian and Zamazenta having to step in. By the time Eternatus revives in the modern day it's such a brief event that by the time Zygarde could reach Galar the player and the mascot legendaries would've taken care of the problem. The two dragons being rivals would also be fitting given the countries their regions are based off are historically major rivals. Also, if Kalos and Galar are close enough to France and England, they'd be neighboring regions so Zygarde would be the closest dragon to confront Eternatus 20,000 years ago.

* It could just be a question of averting invasive species. We know in Alola, Yungoos were never native to the region to begin with, and ended up radically altering the Rattata population, so I'd think Rose doesn't want to risk anything fucking up Galar's ecosystem.

[[WMG: Faba leaked the Type: Null blueprints to Macro Cosmos.]]
Obviously a Pokemon that can adapt its type to fight certain Pokemon, in this case Eternatus, would be greatly appreciated by someone like Rose, so Faba leaked Type: Null to him, thinking it was no consequence to the Aether Foundation as that project was already canned.

[[WMG: The fossils will evolve into their proper forms when traded.]]
* A future game will introduce the Draco and Arcto heads and the Zolt and Vish bodies, with four new hybrids being spawned from them, however, if two of them with the corresponding front and back halves are traded, like Dracovish with the new hybrid with the Draco head and the Vish body, both will evolve into their proper forms (with whoever has the head).

[[WMG: The Galar Fossils being so messed up is because they aren't Rock-types.]]
* All the previous Fossil Pokemon had always been conspicuously part Rock-type: it's because by being Rock-types their DNA preserved better to remain viable. This is what happens when non-Rock-type Pokemon are tried to be revived: they don't revive as well with their DNA degraded, which is why they had to be patched together instead of just restoring one incomplete fossil by itself.

[[WMG: Unova was formerly a colony of Galar.]]
* Not only does it mirror how New York used to be a British colony, but it would also explain why there are so many Gen 5 Pokémon in Galar.
