The absence of a lot of the pocket monsters in the latest game titles didn’t sit well with fans. The Pokemon game series, at its core, is about collecting every known Pokemon. So, to them, Nintendo asking for a price to access the DLC seems unfair.Īnd let’s not forget the fan outrage that was caused by the Sword and Shield base games not having all existing Pokemon. There are fans who have complained about the base games not having much content. The same goes for the Shield Expansion Pass and the Sword base game.
Of course, you can’t run the Sword Expansion Pass if you have the Shield base game. It will also bring along a new form of co-op play to let you explore Pokemon dens with other players.Īccording to Game Freak, the new areas will be bigger and players will have much to do (whatever that’s supposed to mean).Įach expansion pack will cost you $30.
The accompanying legendary Pokemon is called Calyrex. Apparently, said story will focus on exploration. With Charizard already capable of Gigantamaxing, the DLC will allow Venusaur and Blastoise to do the same.Īs for ‘The Crown Tundra,’ that specific story will take place in a remote, frozen outpost. Your starter Pokemon will also be able to Gigantamax. In ‘The Isle of Armor’, you will get new clothing items, rivals, and Pokemon (including the legendary named Kubfu). The second story called ‘The Crown Tundra’ will be available in Fall 2020. With the Pokemon Sword Expansion Pass and the Shield Expansion Pass, you can enjoy a new story titled ‘The Isle of Armor.’ It will be released in June 2020. The upcoming expansions will also bring new areas to explore as well as Galarian forms of older Pokemon. It’s still an adventure for experienced players too, with beautiful town designs and interesting new Pokemon to discover as long as you have the patience to get through the hand-holding.Pokemon Sword and Shield Expansion Pass (Image: Pokemon Company) Fans who have been waiting to fill up the entire Pokedex can now add a bit more to their collection when the DLCs for Pokemon Sword and Shield are released. Over all this is a wonderful starting point for new players, young or old, with a fun plot, a smaller PokeDex to contend with if you want to “Catch’em all” and everything you need to learn about the world of Pokemon. There are a lot and they take away from the immersion most experienced gamers want out of their favorite monster catching series. More experienced players might get frustrated with the unskippable cutscenes and interactions however. With bright colors, amazing music and all the HYPE it has an energy that is sure to grab new players. Nintendo has been making recent Pokemon games geared more towards younger players and Pokemon Sword and Shield fits that pattern.

Nintendo has also added a Wild Area for free ranging adventures and Max Raid Battles which are group fights against Dynamaxed enemies. Similar to the Mega Evolution seen in previous games, Dynamaxing allows Pokemon to grow to Godzilla size for a couple rounds with the power and moves to match. Other new regional additions include curry made while camping, new Pokemon like a ghostly teapot called Polteageist, and a special type of “evolution” called Dynamaxing. Pokemon fights take the place of soccer here, with sporty uniforms and fights staged in giant stadiums packed with fans. This new region is based off on England, just as Hoenn is based on Japan and Alola on Hawaii. In Pokemon Sword and Shield you are exploring the Galar region on your journey to become Pokemon Champion. This might sound like a scene more reminiscent of a FIFA game than a Pokemon one but that’s intentional. You’ve been training for this, you look sharp in your uniform, and your team is as ready as they will ever be! Welcome to the world of Pokemon, Galar region style! *Cue pumped up intro music*
As you open the doors the noise doubles and you begin the long walk out onto the green field. Waiting in the locker room you hear the crowd chanting and yelling.
