Pokémon Sword & Shield Expansion Pass

Your adventure continues with the Pokémon Sword and Shield Expansion Pass**, containing new stories to experience, new Pokémon to encounter, and new Wild Areas to explore. You’ll even meet new and returning Legendary Pokémon along the way! The Expansion Pass contains two expansions***, releasing in summer 2020 and autumn 2020 respectively.

Get ready to venture through a giant island off the shores of the Galar region, the Isle of Armor! Filled with beautiful nature, you’ll find beaches, bogs, forests, caves and dunes.

Take up an apprenticeship under the former Galar Champion, Mustard, who’s also the mentor of Champion Leon! Meet new rivals, hone your skills and master new fighting styles with the Legendary Pokémon: Kubfu.

You’ll also be able to Gigantamax the final Evolution of the partner Pokémon you chose to start your journey with. Look forward to discovering Rillaboom, Cinderace or Inteleon in their new form, and a new G-Max Move to boot!

Autumn 2020

Lead an expedition in the snow-swept realm of the Crown Tundra and unravel the mystery of the Legendary Pokémon Calyrex who once ruled over it.

Through a new form of co-op play****, your voyage will even allow you to explore deep within Pokémon Dens, which you could only previously get a glimpse of during Max Raid Battles. You may even see Legendary Pokémon from past games Dynamaxing before your eyes, and you’ll be able to catch them!

Notice! Each Expansion Pass is only compatible with the game version of the same name.

You will be unable to play the additional content if you get the wrong Expansion Pass, so be careful!
