I was wondering if people here thought a theoretical part 3 & part 4 DLC could still be possible next year.
I do think that it's most certainly possible, and that a part 3 & 4 would add 200 more Pokemon.
But, if not, and we don't get DLC, and either we get Let's Go Johto/Sinnoh remakes will have some of the missing Pokemon that won't be in SW/SH. But, I do feel like it is possible we'll get maybe more new DLC next year if the DLC sells well. I don't think this'll be a one time thing.
I'm pretty sure it's already confirmed that there won't be a Let's Go Jhoto. I think at this point, especially with how much hate the Pokemon Company has been getting, they would be crazy not to do Sinnoh next and it has to be next year. People are growing impatient and if they fill next year with DLC we are what, two years away from the next release? I don't think they can ride Sword and Shield for that long and with how well they sold they will probably want to get the next game out as soon as they can.
Well, yeah, except.... nothing with Game Freak is certain. People constantly crying about Sinnoh remakes doesn't mean they'll happen, lmfao.
But, at this point leakers have said something about a "new Pokemon game next year" or whatever, so anything is possible.
