Pokémon Scarlet and Violet/Introduction
General Overview edit
What are Pokémon Scarlet and Violet? edit
Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet are games released for the Nintendo Switch video game console. Considered the start of the Generation 9 Pokémon games, these games expanded on mechanics introduced in Generation 8 by making a near fully open and explorable 3D region based loosely on the Iberian peninsula. Players who know other owners of the game may choose to connect over wireless communications, allowing them to share a game world.
What are Pokémon Scarlet and Violet DLC? edit
The DLC to Scarlet and Violet adds two new locations to the game, along with two additional dexs to accompany them, as well as additional story arcs. The Teal Mask is accessible to lower level players and is highly story focused, while The Indigo Disk is aimed at players further along in the game and has more emphasis on double battles.
Differences between the games edit
As usual both versions of the game feature different creatures to encounter. Both games feature a different ride Pokémon.
The overall story between both games is mostly similar, though the Professor encountered in each is different, as is the name and uniform colors of the school the player character attends. Pokémon Scarlet has a thematic emphasis on the past and Pokémon Violet has a thematic emphasis on the future.
