Today, September 29, the long-awaited one aired Pokémon Direct dedicated to second DLC of Pokémon Sword and Shield. After the arrival of the first downloadable content "The lonely island of armor", the eighth generation titles dedicated to pocket monsters will soon get its second expansion, "The snowy lands of the crown“, In which Trainers will be able to explore the coldest and most icy territories of the Galar region and capture many Legendary Pokémon both old and new. During the Direct, presented by the president of The Pokémon Company Tsunekazu Ishihara, the release date of the second part of this Expansion Pass has finally been revealed, which will arrive on Nintendo Switch on October 23rd.
The great protagonist of the live broadcast was certainly the new Wild Land that will be introduced with this DLC, the Landa Corona, a frozen steppe that will await all Trainers who are reckless enough to face it, led by the veteran explorer Peony, who knows these peaks like the back of his hand. During our adventure we will come across a lot of Legendary Pokémon from distant regions, such as the trio of the birds of Kanto that come back in a whole new guise, or the trio of the Regi di Hoenn, which will have two other exponents who will be added to the group, that is Regieleki e Regidrago, respectively of the Electro type and of the Dragon type.
The most important news that the Landa Corona will give us are certainly the Dynamax adventures, which will allow us to go on underground expeditions with three other Trainers to capture all Legendary Pokémon of past generations. During these excursions it will be necessary to face increasingly complex challenges, choosing which direction to take during our adventure that will lead us to collide with one of the many legendaries who will return in Pokémon Sword and Shield. Depending on our version of the game, however, we will have a range of Exclusive Pokémon, so in order to get them all you will need to be hosted by the Dynamax Adventures of online players with the opposite version of the game.
As a final announcement, Ishihara confirms the arrival of the compatibility between Pokémon GO and Pokémon Home by the end of 2020, finally making exchanges between the two applications possible. At the conclusion of the live broadcast, in addition to the announcement of a new collection by Pikachu with Ash's cap, whose first exponent can be redeemed on the pair of titles for Nintendo Switch starting today with the code "P1KACHUGET“, One aired wonderful video clip of a song that the Japanese group BUMP OF CHICKEN wanted to dedicate to the release of the new Pokémon Sword and Shield expansion, in which we will be able to relive the highlights of each game in the series thanks to a wonderful animated short that will have warmed the hearts of all fans.
