Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield are introducing a new Dynamax feature. With it, Pokemon can become huge during battle, and also receive a big power boost. Trainers can only Dynamax their Pokemon once per battle, and after three turns, they return to their normal state.

Pokemon Sword/Shield director Shigeru Ohmori had a bit to say about Dynamaxing in an interview with Kotaku. In his view, the feature will allow for “every Pokemon to shine in battle.”

For the launch of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Nintendo ran a special promotion. Those who purchased the game early were provided with a download code for Piranha Plant.

We assume that most of you have redeemed your codes at this point. However, if you haven’t by any chance, keep in mind that time is just about to run out on the promotion. Players only have until June 30 to redeem their codes, so they’ll become non-functional once the weekend ends.

After previously sharing art of Callie, Nintendo has posted another piece of art for Splatoon 2’s last Splatfest featuring Marie. We have it above.

“Even though Callie’s free spirit has been a good influence on her, Marie still like things to be nice & neat,” Nintendo says. “Even a bit of idle chit-chat needs a solid one-liner to stitch things up, which is why she’s Team Order.”
