Nintendo shows off more of the upcoming Pokémon Scarlet & Violet DLC

The Teal Mask and The Indigo Disk

Recommended Videos

Nintendo kicked off their Nintendo Direct today with their cash cow: Pokemon. Specifically, we got a closer look at the setting for both DLC adventures coming to Pokemon Scarlet & Violet later this year.

The Teal Mask will have a feudal Japan theme, as we’ve seen a good deal of leading into this particular Direct. The Indigo Disk will partially take place at the “Blueberry Academy,” which is much more futuristic in nature than the Teal Mask setting. “More details are coming in the future,” so this is basically a drip feed of footage for now.

As a reminder, Teal Mask is still slated for fall 2023, and Indigo Disk is coming in winter.

Here’s the latest info from Nintendo, which is still fairly vague beyond the visuals in the trailer and the reconfirmation of certain returning Pokemon:

“More Pokemon, places and stories await in this two-part DLC for the Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet games. In this story, you’ll be leaving the Paldea region and delving even deeper into the world of the Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet games. Part 1: The Teal Mask has a planned release date of fall 2023 and Part 2: The Indigo Disk has a planned release date of winter 2023. The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC is available for pre-purchase now in Nintendo eShop and in the My Nintendo Store on Nintendo.com.”

More events are coming to Pokemon Scarlet & Violet this week

While the DLC is on the horizon, there is something you can do right now. Well, later today, at least!

There’s a special Tera Raid event for Chest Form Gimmighoul running from June 21 through July 2, and you can use the password “TREASUREHUNT” for goodies (Nugget x10, Rare Candy x10, Friend Ball x1).
