Pokemon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk: The Nineteenth Type Explained

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet carried great expectations on their shoulders before launch, but only some of them were met, as many players experienced performance issues that post-release patches never fully fixed. Still, Gen 9 was a major milestone and turning point for the franchise as a whole, and that’s because of how many traditions Pokemon Scarlet and Violet broke in their attempt to revise and perfect the classic Pokemon formula that has carried through over 25 years of mainline titles. This is far from the first time that Game Freak attempts to do something unique with its games, but Pokemon Scarlet and Violet succeeded in various fields, and now the DLCs are set to do something exceptional yet again – introducing a nineteenth Pokemon type to the series.
