Developer Gamefreak has announced the release of an expansion pass for 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pokémon Sword & Shield 🐬to release later this year and featuring more than 200 new Pokémon to collect. Fortunately, players who are not planning to purchase the expansion pass will still be able to acquire the new Pokémon through several different ways.

Producer Junichi Masuda and Director Shigeru Ohmori explained how one way for trainers to acquire new Pokémon will simply be through trading. So far it looks as though all Pokémon 🐻that can be found on theꩲ Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra will be obtainable this way, and there are several online resources to link trainers looking to trade.

Another options that💮 trainers will ha🍸ve is the use of the upcoming paid cloud service of Pokémon Home. So long as the Pokémon appear in the expansion, players will be able to transfer them over without issue.

This second method is by far the most interesting, because while Pokémon Home is set to launch next month, details on exactly what else the service will offer has 𒐪been sparse. From the bits of information that have been released over the past year, we know that the main goal of Pokémon Home is to act as a bridge that connects old and new Pokémon games together.

The service will provide Pokémon storage and will release on the Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android devices, and presumably will all be linked together. This looks to offer connectively between 3DS games with the Pokémon Bank, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pokémon GO, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pokémon Let’s Go, Pikachu, Pokémon Let’s Go, Eevee, and Pokémon Sword & Shield. So far, only Sword and Shield will allow players to both deposit and 𒉰withdraw from Pokémon Home.

In addition, there may also be additional ways to acquire the Pokémon from the expansion pass, as Masuda and Ohmori said there would be other methods with informati🃏on coming closer to the release of the first expansion content in June.

However, while all these options are available for trainers, the expansion passꦫ has been priced at $29.𓆉99, which is quite reasonable. Although we have not yet seen exactly how much content is planned for both the Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra, the price is quite low when it comes to expansion DLC for AAA games, at least relative to other titles.

For now, trainers will have to൲ wait for the expansions to release. The Isle of Armor will launch in Jun🍷e, while Crown Tundra will follow at some point in the Fall.
