Datamine: Pokemon Sword/Shield Isle Of Armor DLC Does Not Scale To The Player’s Pokemon Levels

Earlier this month, IGN reported that the Pokemon Sword And Shield Isle Of Armor DLC would feature level scaling based on the player’s own party Pokemon levels.

Now that the DLC has gone live however, dataminers and other players have discovered that this is not quite the case. According to Pokemon dataminer Sciresm, the levels of the player’s Pokemon does not have any effect whatsoever on the Isle Of Armor DLC.

Instead, it seems that any level adjustments are based on where the player is in the game’s story, with some players reporting that the levels are around 11 or so before beating the Champion, while players who have already beaten the Champion report levels of around 60+.
