What’s new about the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet?

The Pokemon Company hosted a presentation on August 3, revealing more about the upcoming two games. One of the most asked questions was what’s the new game’s region. So, it was disclosed that the ninth generation of Pokemon games would occur in the Paldea region.

The players will take on the role of a prestigious academy student and embark on a Treasure Hunt journey. However, this adventure wouldn’t feature a specific story like the past games. Instead, they would have three stories, one of which is the classic journey to become a Pokemon Champion. But unlike the past games, players won’t have a specific order to fight the gyms.

Scarlet and Violet will feature many new Pokemons like the three starters Quaxly, Fuecoco, and Sprigatito. The latest presentation also revealed some new Pocket Monsters like Fidough and Cetitan. There would be many older generation Pokemons, and some might also get a regional form like Wooper. Also, players will have access to the legends early in the game and can use them as rides to travel across the region.
