Many announcements about Pokémon took place this Wednesday at 3pm. And apparently, it's not over! This Wednesday, June 17, Nintendo has rewarded us with several news. Some info about the Sword and Shield Expansion Pass, but also about new games and applications.
Mobile games
An unexpected application has just landed on our smartphones: Pokémon Smile. The goal? Make sure children brush their teeth while having fun. Not much to add, except that the idea is quite funny. It remains to be seen if the games will be fun enough to entertain the youngest. Another small game was announced: Pokémon Café & Mix. It will be a puzzle-game available on mobile, but also on Switch. It will be a "free to start", but there is no doubt that many paid bonuses will be offered. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdJQDZ-M0oE Finally, the ultimate star of mobile games has not been neglected. And this is an important announcement that has been made about Pokémon Go. Indeed, players will soon have access to the mechanics of mega-evolution. A mechanic that had at the time revolutionized the history and strategy of the game. Also announced was a 100% Pokémon Go Fest , as well as the appearance of Canarticho de Galar in the game.
Switch games
Pokémon games on Switch seem to be on the rise. Thus, the first Expansion Pass (the lonely island of Armor) will finally see the light of day today. A risky bet for Nintendo, which had never ventured DLC for Pokémon. A bonus was also announced about Pokémon Sword & Shield. Namely special raids containing the fabulous Pokémon Zeraora, with the possibility of finding it in Shiny. A great way to celebrate the arrival of this extension. In addition, an unexpected remake should please those nostalgic for the Nintendo 64. Indeed, Pokémon Snap is back for a new instalment on Switch. Enough to make fans salivate, since more than 20 years have passed since the release of the first opus. And that several generations of Pokémon have appeared since. Enough to make beautiful photos in enchanting landscapes. That concludes today's announcements. But a new very big announcement seems to be coming! Indeed, on June 24, another Nintendo Direct will take place. Should we expect a new remake on Switch (like generation 4)? Or Pokémon Star that many are still waiting for? We'll find out in a week. In the meantime, take advantage of the Expansion Pass on your version of Pokémon Sword & Shield.
