Many games nowadays have DLC's, which brings me to this question. I'm not talking about free Pokémon events by going to a store or a free Pokémon by purchasing something, i'm talking about a real exclusive game enhancer that can be obtained digitally with money or Nintendo eShop.

> a free Pokemon by purchasing something

Aside from making fun of weird wording, there have been patches for fixing glitches, which might count as game enhancers.
Pokken has paid DLC. If I remember correctly, Pokemon Quest had microtransactions. As for main Pokemon games? I don't think so.
Didn't Pokémon Rumble have DLC by buying crystals or some?
Didn't Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Gates to Infinity have DLC?

MUAHAHAHA!

(Translation: silver was right in 2020)

As of December 14, 2023, two mainline and two spin-off Pokèmon games have DLCs. The mainline ones are: S/V (Scarlet and Violet) as well as SW/SH (Sword and Shield), and the spin-off ones are: Pokkén Tournament DX and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity. Here are their names:

Mainline:

S/V:
- The Teal Mask
- The Indigo Disk

SW/SH:
- The Isle of Armor
- The Crown Tundra

spin-off:

Pokkén Tournement DX:
- Pokkén Tournament DX Battle Pack

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity:
- Many dungeons bought as seperated DLCs listed here

NOVEMBER 2020 UPDATE

SURPRISE!!! Gen 8 has two lengthy DLCs called "The Isle of Armor" and "The Crowned Tundra", so as of today, yes there has been mainstream Pokemon DLC and there's a high chance they may continue with doing this.

I dont believe that any Pokemon game has had DLC before. Particularly main series ones. Take this with a grain of salt.

Edit: Well this comment aged like milk.
