Unlock all sound options in Pokémon Sword and Shield

Location of the key object Supersponge to get the complete configuration menu.

Traditionally, Pokémon games – and virtually any other game, in fact – have allowed different accessibility options to be adjusted from the settings menu, such as text speed. This is also valid for Pokémon Sword / Pokémon Shield, although not all options are available from the beginning of the game. If you want to get all the sound parameters, you will first have to obtain the object Supertapones (Hi-tech Earbuds in English).

To obtain this key object, go to Piston City (Motostoke City). Leaving the Pokémon center on the left you will see the main street that leads to the gym, and shortly before taking the elevator you will see on your right (just behind the character that has an Onix) a vinyl record store, and a man with a cap right in front of that store. If you talk to him, he will give you the object you are looking for. Remember that it is not used from the backpack, but from the options menu.

Once inside, at the bottom you will see the possibility of adjusting the volume of the music, the sound effects and even the screams of the Pokémon separately. Some very enthusiastic players reduce the environmental effects and enhance the screams to more easily recognize what moves between the nearby grass, which could help you in the catch chains and the like.
