How easily could you complete the professor oak challenge in Sword and Shield WITH doing the DLCs as you progress through the main game? Both DLCs are available before the first gym but the levelling is a lot easier now because of being able to trade Dynite Ore for EXP L and EXP XL candies. I should know: im in the middle of one myself and i waited before progressing to see if the crown tundra was available before Milo. The only tedious thing is trying to get all available pokemon from the dynamax adventures because you can obtain pokemon that are spread across all 3 pokedex lists

Okay, so, the lore behind the fossils is pretty cool. Calyrex's dex entry says it foresaw a meteor hitting and destroying an entire forest and every pokemon in it, so he teleported away the whole forest and every pokemon in it. Calyrex prevented the meteor that caused the fourth mass extinction event from affecting the Crown Tundra. Well, we assume it was the fourth because the meteor that killed the dinosaurs in our world was the fourth, and that was what it was referencing. But I think that's really cool!

That is cool, I didn't know that bit. But it does not line up with the story people living in Crown Tundra have - in this case I believe both are true. So according to the people of Crown Tundra, fossil Pokémon appeared shortly before you arrive there. Or more specifically - shortly after Nebby was found. Since I didn't look at Calyrex dex entry I thought Nebby was the cause of all of it But again I think the stories are both linked. Calyrex did teleport the forest and the pokemon away from danger, but it was Nebby that summoned them back to current time period Crown Tundra

My biggest question is still why do the Villagers choose to live in one of the coldest areas of the their region, even if crops don't grow anywhere it still has to be nicer not being in snow when a few steps outside town is greenland. In fact how do any of them survive if they haven't been able to grow food for centuries, I honestly feel like this storyline isn't quite adding up

Now that all of the DLC is out, you should do a master prof Oak's challenge for the entire game. Basically, play the game as if both DLCs were there the whole time and start from the beginning. It's free content and you could make a super clickbaitable title for it. I'd watch it.

@Kahadi

3 жыл бұрын

Well, depending on how he handles the DLC stories, that wouldn't be very different. For example, for the Crown Tundra, you can actually go everywhere prior to doing their stories. So barring places blocked by rivers, almost everything can be caught after a few badges (2 maybe?). Once you can bike over water, almost everything else becomes available except a few legendaries that require further progress. One (I can't recall who but maybe the new Regis) requires 7 badges while Calyrex requires being champion to have that final battle. As such, it would pretty well be the same up until the station lets you go to the DLC, then catch another 400+ Pokemon, get your bike, another 150 or so, beat the seventh gym, a dozen more, become champion, 2-3 more. Really tedious and boring

I honestly can't say I agree. Honestly this week is the first time I even heard people didn't like Isle of Armor - which came as a surprise to me. Crown Tundra has some cool things to it, the story of Calyrex was fun to experience, Peony is pretty cool, and dynamax adventures + galarian star tournament add some more tangible activities to do. But also the new content while enjoyable didn't have as much depth to it as I expected. Galarian star tournament was my most anticipated feature but it has so little variety to it almost kills it. Dynamax adventures are fun to play, but I do get tired when going at it for a longer while - and not getting pokedex entries bothers me. Isle of Armor had an amazing rival (Klara of course, shield got scamed) and a lot new additions, armorite ore, honey's quest, following pokemon done well, appricorn balls, random NPC encounters, tutor moves, plenty of clothing, digging pa etc etc I like Crown Tundra but I definetely enjoyed Isle of Armor more EDIT : Also normal raids stopped being relevant. In IoA you had the motivation of doing raids for Armorite ore which is super important as a currency. In CT normal raid gives 1 dynite ore (2 if Delibird) which basically means there is never a reason to do them

Since all the wild pokemon in the Crown Tundra are too high level to catch at the start of the game outside of raid battles, and also being able to get most legendaries at the start of the game, I think it'd be cool to see a Professor Oak challenge for the whole game including both DLC's in the one video

You were right about the virizion foot prints because I spent 2 HOURS finding all the foot prints!

I’ve thought about getting one of the expansion packs and Crown Tundra just seals it for me, however I have never enjoyed playing Gen 8, I couldn’t really finish it at the end of the day, so I can’t really do the post game.

“after we found out he died” i died listening 😂
