I got the game when it came out, played it for a few hours, but haven't really had the time to play it since. Now I do and I am!

Apparently they added my favorite pokemon in one of the expansions. I would like to get the expansions so I can play through the game with it. Are these expansions actually worth though?

Also can you actually get them early on or are they high levels? I already got to the train station so I can travel places so that isn't an issue. Issue would be if they are too high level for me to catch at this point.

Oh also could I just trade for the pokemon with someone else or do I have to have the expansion to attain the pokemon?

You dont need the expansion pass to get the new Pokmon. Thats a separate free update.

Yes you should buy the expansion pass. Its not a complete game without it.

Whos your favorite Pokmon fam

Miltank is a bomb-pokemon, crazy underrated.

I second buying the expansion pass, it adds a lot of content.

It is basically the second half of the game.

The Tundra itself is a huge sidequest that can take a long time to complete without a guide.

Well dang I guess I have to get it then. I don't even have Nintendo online right now so if I wanted to trade for one it would cost me 20 dollars to sign up anyways. May asswell get the expansion pass.

The expansion basically adds two Wild-Area like spaces where the levels scale with your progress/Gym Badges so they won't be crazy with that.

The levels don't really scale. Isle of Armor has a pre- and post- champion levels, with the levels floating around badge 4/5 to be on scale, or has much higher levels when you finish the game.

Shield Tundra is 100% a post-game area. Technically you can do most of it earlier, but its designed to be post-game.

Its in the first area of the Isle of Armor, so you'll be able to catch it either after the first or second gym.
