SincePokemon SwordandShieldlikely won’t be getting a third game like installments of previous generations have, the game will instead have an Expansion Pass, for which two DLCs have been announced.The Isle of Armorexpansion brought many new Pokemon to the game, since the base game is missing some Pokemon from previous generations. In the first DLC, Kingdra was brought to the Galar region, and like all other Pokemon in the game, it came with aPokedex entry. However, many fans find it interesting that the Pokedex entry mentions Dragonite. While this may not seem significant, Game Freak usually includes other Pokemon in a Pokedex entry if both Pokemon could encounter each other in the game. Since Dragonite can’t currently be encountered in the Gen 8 game, it stands to reason that this Dragon-type will be coming withCrown Tundra DLCso it can fit in with this lore.
This isn’t the only reason that many believe that Dragonite will be coming with this latest bundle of additional content. A recent leak disclosed that theDragon-type Pokemonand its evolutionary line will be exclusive toPokemon Shield, whilePokemon Swordwill get Garchomp and its pre-evolved forms in its place. Since these leaks are not confirmed by Nintendo, the hint that has been placed into the game through this Pokedex entry has solidified it in the minds of many fans.
While fans don’t know exactly when they will be able to play through theCrown Tundra DLCcontent for themselves, they are looking forward to some of their favorite Dragon-type Pokemon being introduced to the Galar region. There are plenty of other excitements waiting for players with the additional content thatNintendowill be bringing to fans.
