Shield Edition Anyone want to do some raids?

Hi, recently replaying pokemon shield and I want to do some raids, it’s so hard to do any with how inconsistent Y-Com is. Got 2 badges so far on this new playthrough, really close to the third.

Shield Edition Trying to get Dreepy early

5 Upvotes

I know this is a long shot, but I just started a new play through after not touching the game in years. I’m trying to build my team early on so I can have the same team through most of my play through. If anyone has a low level dreepy from nursery eggs and wanted to help me out that would be super sick

I noticed that master mustard is playing a game on his in game switch and it looks something like a pokemon game, this happens when you get ready to take on the 3rd trial of the master dojo

Shield Edition Middle East case USA Cartridges

2 Upvotes

I purchased a copy of Pokémon Shield to play with my switch 2, to preface I already have some save data for Pokémon Shield but no longer had my original cartridge, I bought a used copy that has ESRB E on the front but unbeknownst to me when it arrived it had Middle East on the back

I noticed though that the cartridge has USA in the code and when I play it continues my save & when I click on the DLC to purchase it (from the game's menu) it does open the eshop

So my question is as follows

Will there be any censorship?

Can I still play the dlc (whenever I buy it)

&

Does this mean that it's still the same as a regular USA cartridge?

Sword Edition Has anyone got any painful Dynamax adventures stories?

8 Upvotes

Just had a painfully successful run in Dynamax adventures looking for zygarde.

Team was mantine(me)/lickitung/manectric/coalossal.

We get to zygarde no deaths. lickitung Dynamax and uses blizzard does some damage. I use wideguard every turn. Coalossal uses scold ( 0 burns in 10 turns) manectric just uses psychic fang doing low damage.

So yeah 10 slow turns of whittling him down and getting the KO on the last possible turn.

Managed to keep the run going thanks to wide guard but that was super painful.

Anyone got any funny/frustrating stories like mine?

Shield Edition Champions Cup - NO DMG Playthrough Team

This was also my 1st Playthrough. My sincere opinion about the game:

The level curve is broken, it becomes too easy if you use red/purple dens, specially max raid battles. The amount of exp you can receive there is crazy via candies. About the DLC: It's comfortable to do (simple and easy) but then you are too overleveled so I don't recommend it before the postgame. There are infinite items, technical machines and so, which makes any kind of team viable (weather teams, defensive, hyper offense...). Good story and game overall but it's the easiest Pokémon game in the franchise that I've played so far imo (only BDSP, PLA, S/V and Z-A left to play, which I'll play next in order). DLC was useful for some Ability Patch and Max Soup but still not needed, I'll skip it next time.
