The Indigo Disk: A Double Battle Awakening in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet DLC

The Pokémon Scarlet and Violet games left fans craving more double battles, as the ghost-type gym leader Ryme was one of the few opportunities for players to engage in this strategic battle style. However, the new DLC, The Indigo Disk, promises to change the game entirely.

Continuing the story after the events of The Teal Mask DLC, The Indigo Disk takes players on a journey to Kitakami, a distant land where they enroll as a foreign exchange student at the esteemed Blueberry Academy. At this specialized academy, the focus is solely on double battles, offering a challenging and exciting experience for trainers.

Set in the Blueberry Academy’s secure, underwater campus, The Indigo Disk introduces four distinct biomes – frigid tundras, sunny beaches, grassy plains, and rocky mountains – each teeming with over 200 different Pokémon species. Exploring the open world, capturing wild Pokémon, and battling trainers will be key in your quest to become the best in this ninth generation Pokémon game.

The highlight of this DLC is undeniably the emphasis on double battles. Every opponent you encounter, be it a regular trainer or a member of the Elite Four, will throw out a pair of Pokémon for you to face simultaneously. This influx of type match-ups, moves, and strategy will challenge even the most seasoned trainers. Suddenly, moves like Stealth Rock, Trick Room, Heal Pulse, and Helping Hand become essential to your success.

Prepare yourself for the formidable Elite Four, as they are particularly tough adversaries. Amarys, a member specializing in steel types, showcases her expertise and surprises players with her ingenious tactics. The battle, demonstrated prior to release, proved to be more challenging than most encounters in Scarlet and Violet, promising a delightful treat for fans seeking an extra layer of difficulty in their Pokémon games.

Mark your calendars and get ready, as The Indigo Disk DLC will grace Nintendo Switch on December 15th. Brace yourself for an immersive double battle experience like never before, where adaptability, strategy, and mastery of Pokémon types are sure to create unforgettable moments.
