One Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Indigo Disk DLC Feature Should Have Been in the Game From the Start

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet‘s reception at launch was mixed due to the many performance issues and visual glitches that could plague players’ first foray into the region of Paldea, but Gen 9 ended up being praised for its open world and exploration mechanics. Players get to ride Koraidon or Miraidon across the region, unlocking new power-ups whenever they defeat Pokemon Scarlet and Violet‘s Titans, and the overall experience is mostly good – often drawing inspiration from Pokemon Legends: Arceus‘ own traversal mechanics. However, Gen 9 games should have learned one key lesson from Pokemon Legends: Arceus, and it seems The Indigo Disk DLC is fixing this – but it could be too little, too late.
