Pokémon Sword and Shield Expansion pass and more

Is the expansion going to be worth it? I feel that most of what it’s adding should have been in the original release

All I needed to know was that Salamence was coming back. I’m about to lay waste to the online scene.

I have a feeling that Garchomp will quickly jump into S-Tier while Dragonite will fall by the wayside. Unless it receives some new tools, it’s a ‘mon that will almost certainly require Dynamaxing in order to stay useful, and with better options that won’t cut it for me. Salamence is useful with both abilities, however, with Intimidate being nerfed pretty hard this Gen’, I have a feeling Moxie will prove more useful unless something is built specifically around stat reduction. Ultimately, we’ll need to see how the aforementioned perform in a Dynamax meta without the use of their mega evolutions – something that makes me sad boi. I’m sure I’ll find a way to maximize his usefulness like I always have since long before using him was easy; apart from Rayquaza, he’s my favorite Dragon-Type.
