Poll of the Day > Just realised I didn't play isle of armour or crown tundra.

(+) Yeah! (+)

are they post game DLCs only or can I get into them as soon as I fire up sword/shield?

As soon as you are free to explore the wild area, which is before the first gym you can do the DLCs. So Isle of Armor is good for getting new moves and rare items like bottle caps. Crown Tundra is good for getting a lot of legendaries and shinies. They kinda break the balance of the game though if you do them early. Like you can get like level 70 or 80 legendaries before you ever hit up a gym.

Also, the DLCs added new pokemon and forms of old Pokemon. IoA added Kubfu and Urshifu. Urshifu has 2 forms exclusive forms depending on how you evolve Kubfu. You get one Kubfu per playthrough. It also adds new forms for Slowpoke and Slowbro. CT added Regieleki and Regidraco, two new legendary golems. You can get only one of these per playthrough. It also added a new legendary trio. Calyrex, and its two horses, Glastrier and Spectrier, which you can only get one horse per playthrough. It also added new forms of Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres. Oh it also adds a new form of Slowking.

Yeah it's funny, you can waltz into the first gym with a team of level 70 legendaries

Nice. Not too fussed about the game balance anymore with SwSh. Played shield once and it was so ridiculously easy so having lvl 70 legendaries before hitting my first gym might as well be a thing cos you steamroll all the gym leaders regardless. I just miss the max raids and stuff like that.

also the DLC looks like digital only right? I cant pick up a game cartridge of crown tundra or isle of armour?

There was a physical release with the DLC. But idk how big of a run it was. It was a year or two ago.

I thought the dlc was fun enough. I liked Crown Tundras expedition style approach to the legendaries in the area.
