Around 80% of the whole DLC content is in this second part, and it delivers as expected. Of course, performance issues of the base game are still there, but what's new is fun: especially the new, more challenging double battles and all the stuff you can do with friends, such as group tasks (which are required to capture all legendaries) and the Syncro Machine, which also spotlights some cool Pokémon animations, which seemingly were a main focus in this DLC. The story is a bit predictable, and sort of average for a Pokémon game. I didn't end up really loving any of the two siblings, but the Elite 4 were fun to meet. Overall a fun DLC, I wasn't expecting anything too grand and it isn't, but I still liked it. Maybe not worth its price tag, but it gets close.
