Nintendo Reminds Us About Pokémon Sword & Shield's Crown Tundra DLC With New Trailer

I enjoyed Isle tbh. Was like a micro mini tiny MMORPG

It's good to know that this is seemingly still releasing this year and hasn't been delayed. I enjoyed the Isle of Armor, and this looks like it could be even better than that.

I wonder how long it would take for this to go down in price.

@Kalmaro Did any Nintendo DLC's go down so far?

@Kalmaro Probably never, honestly.

@Kalmaro judging by nintendos other season passes... Never
Unless you buy from another online retailer like shopto in the UK sell it for £20

This is the first pokemon for me that the legendaries and mythicals have been poor, just update the game so I can use shaymin, victini and diancie please

@Kalmaro Breath of the wild's dlc has gone down in price during sales, so this might as well

@Yanina apparently, breath of the wild has.

@Kalmaro why so you think this will ever go down In price? It MIGHT get a very small sale for like a couple bucks but nintendo isn't into that kind of stuff

Im gonna b honest after my first playthrough I thought the game was just meh but to be fair I was pretty burned out on pkmn after playing non stop on the 3ds and I gave usum a lot of my time. Revisiting the game lately and exploring the dlc and I've had a lot more fun this time around so im excited for the second part of the dlc

The people from Nintendo need to start treating their RPG sagas with more love... I don't know what's worse Paper Mario's dreadful combat system or Pokemon S&S' stupid plot and dialogue...

Isle of Armor is pretty good, looking forward to Crown Tundra. Been shiny hunting and enjoying the meta lately.

@Kalmaro it doesn't quite help your case when your wrong. The price is still 20 dollars on the botw dlc. Just check zelda.com.

Are those Galarian form of Zapdos, Moltres and Articuno?

As long as the extra time is spent on porting (yes, porting) the remaining pogeys' models over from the 3DS games, I can wait until early 2021.

@Kalmaro probably never. I’ve yet to see a discount on Nintendo DLC on the eShop and can’t remember ever seeing the DLC cards sold in stores at discount either.

@Anti-Matter
Yes, they've since been officially referred to as such.

@avictorao
Neither. The Pokédex is the only thing to blame, although the DLC seems to be rectifying this so far.

@Kalmaro
Ever the optimist, you.

Isla of Armour's Wild Area was already a step up compared to the base game but this seems to be even better. Can't wait to play it

The main website stated November so more than likely that sometime next month we may get a Pokemon Direct about the Crown Tundra.

@AlexSora89 ehm ok buddy, let's pretend pokemon is a great game whose only problem is the pokedex. Oh no, wait! I forgot that's a complaint only die hard fanboys even remotely care about.
Imo, Pokemon has been a mildly enjoyable game (at best) ever since the 3DS installments, and its last generation jump has been quite a disappointment.
Oh and please, do yourself a favor and watch that tone. It's not your job to correct the people in this blog for their (according to you) wrong opinions.

@Kalmaro "never" is the answer

Good to know that this hasn't been delayed to 2021. Also, this tease along with the age of calamity update on 9-26 has me hopeful for some sort of news dump at the end of the month whether it be a direct, mini, YouTube drop or whatever other nonsense Nintendo is currently experimenting with.

I hope this DLC has more than 2 hours worth of content. Adding previous pokemon doesn't count as more content!

autumn instead of winter?

It sucks that its fall 2020 now, but they cant give us the date for something many people already have paid for

@Ghostchip I'm not the guy who's wrong, I'm just quoting someone else. @Abeedo is who you want to talk to.

Thanks Nintendo for reminding me about why I hate Pokemon Games now.

@AlexSora89 Hope springs eternal, and whatnot.

Well nothing new except the music which will most likely be the new background music of the area

I'm sure if this were the third version people would talk more about it, but this DLC seems worth it.

@Kalmaro I don't care who's wrong just supporting my claims not like I'm holding it against you dude take care I also don't want some person waiting for a price to be marked down when it never will.

@Ghostchip You cared enough to call me out :/

It's no big deal though, I was just kinda thinking out loud when I posted the question. I didn't expect so many responses on this.

I look forward to my 6yr old asking me about such and such Pokemon being obtainable and telling him, sorry son, that is only in the other version of the game and we are not buying it for you to catch that one.

@Anti-Matter
Yes. They have different types.

Hope to get more content than last DLC

Isle of Armour brought some of the best editions to competitive Pokemon in the history of the series. I hope that Crown Tundra can do just as well for co-op or story.

Mostly I hope the hidden ability capsule is real tbh.

@kalmaro @Ghostchip I mean if it happened once it can happen again. No guarantees but it's possible.

Have really started the main game. Bought the dlc. Gonna wait until it drops before playing it all at once

Hyped for this expansion. Really enjoyed Isle of Armor and look forward to trying some raid battles vs legendary Pokémon with my kids. Always nice to have some more Pokémon to hunt as well. Hopefully there’s some surprises in this expansion similar to Pokémon following you on the Isle.

I know Pokémon is a divisive game now but I think the series is still a lot of fun & I enjoy the DLC approach as opposed to “Ultra” versions of games. One thing I’d love is the ability to turn on or off Ex Share any time.

@Abeedo I don't think you read my comment buddy zelda dlc still costs the same as launch. Look at zelda.com. still 20 dollars just like launch day.

@Kalmaro sorry if I was a bit rude wasn't trying to be.

@Ghostchip It's all good, no hard feelings

Wish I didn't have to pay extra for DLC for the game to not be total garbage

Sure. They could wait to build up some big reveal event, or they could just give us the release date RIGHT NOW!!! My patience is thinner than rice paper at this point!

@AlexSora89 Lets be honest. Pokemon sword and shield has nice new pokemon, but everything else is garbage. Story, dialogues, graphics, maps. I sold my copy of shield as soon as I finished the game.

@avictorao "watch your tone", says biggest jerk in entire thread

@Ghostchip No I did but I said the price goes during sales. Sales are temporary in nature. Maybe there is no sale for the zelda dlc now, but there has been before. It was brought down from 20 dollars to 12 for a limited time. You should know that sales are usually not permanent.

@Abeedo I know that but has this dlc had a significant sale like you said? NO. Look here. Lowest price is 18 dollars 2 dollars off usual price and the only reason this sale happened was because of an overall 1st party sale, meaning it was a certain percent for every game. Meaning guess what it was only a couple bucks off. And before you tell me I'm wrong look at this chart that literally explains it https://www.dekudeals.com/items/the-legend-of-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-expansion-pass

@avictorao If there is one thing that need improvement first, it certainly isn't the plot or dialogue.

@Ghostchip Hey man, you're getting too aggressive over this. I don't know about America, but in Europe, where I live, it has gone from 20 euro all the way down to 14 euro before. Not sure what trying to prove me wrong over something so petty and trivial will do for you, but hey if it makes you a better person then go for it.

I’ve been giving SwSh a bit of a break but I’m keen to jump back in and play form VGC soon.

@Abeedo well considering Europe's policy on sales is NIGHT AND DAY from america, it makes sense. It doesn't help that you're responding the same I way I thought we were having a conversation and if your offended I honestly don't care. It's a conversation with someone you don't know you'll forget about me in an hour lol and I'm not insulting you so...

Oh yeah I forgot this game was getting DLC!

@Urso G4U

Animal Crossing doing so well, that Nintendo has to remind people about Pokemon?? WOW!

This better be practice for modeling snow, caves and mountains

Can't wait for it to be short, boring, and piss-easy like Sword & Shield's main game, post game, & first DLC.

@Ghostchip @Abeedo
I know you guys are trying to have a fight up in here but thanks for that dekudeals link, I'd never seen that before.
I guess it's different for different areas, but for me in the UK it shows that the price went from £18 to £12 just a few months back.

I still don't know if I'll get the Pokemon DLC, I was pretty excited at first but reviews for the last area seemed pretty mixed. If it goes down in price though I'll definitely consider it.

when your DLC is more enjoyable than your main game it's time to rethink how you do things

@jcboyer515 in the EU sales on games pop up frequently due to the fact that a retailer can just do what they want mostly even with first parties when in here in US... yeah you either pay 60 dollars for oddessy or you don't play it. Sometimes you get 10 bucks off or so but with nintendo games they basically never put games or expansions for that matter on sale. Hence the pitiful dollar or so off sale being the all time low on botw expansion.

@JellyPop we learned that uk had sales and the us did not as the uk is much more lenient on 1st party sales. For example they got 6 euros off which I'm assuming is a fair chunk and we got... a dollar off which is not even worth being a sale no one would buy it on sale because of a dollar off lol

@Anti-Matter no

Both my base game Sword and the Isle of Armor were pretty good, but Crown Tundra worries me a little because of the flood of Legendary Pokemon and Ultra Beasts that are returning...

I was honestly pretty disappointed with the Isle of Armor and I don't think the Crown Tundra is any better. I honestly forgot about this game and haven't played since July
