Fans of Pok mon are hard at work making predictions about the upcoming DLC for Pok mon Scarlet and Violet. The first installment of the two-part expansion, The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero: The Teal Mask, is scheduled for release on September 13.
While The Pok mon Company has not yet released an official statement, the internet has dug up, deciphered, and shared leaks—something it does best.
The worldwide fandom of the franchise is satiated by leakers like Kaphotics and ElChicoEevee, who are among the first to divulge information about new forms and animals. Notably, a trustworthy source of Pok mon leaks, Centro Leaks, has released thorough breadcrumbs that lead to some of the most intriguing parts of the DLC, particularly with regard to the new Pok mon forms.

Ursaluna Bloodmoon has captured everyone’s interest. This new form of Ursaluna, which is the last evolution of the Teddiursa line that was first described in Gen 8, appears to be exploring some interesting new ground. It is stated in the world of Pok mon Scarlet that Ursaluna traveled great distances to arrive in a brand-new area, where she acquired special powers and a new look. The Pok mon Violet version goes into further detail about its potential Ground/Steel typing, mentioning that this Ursaluna form can see in the dark with its left eye and defends itself with mud as hard as iron. Theoretically, fans are already crafting elaborate hypotheses regarding how this new form could be obtained—perhaps by developing Ursaring during a lunar eclipse?
Though Bloodmoon Ursaluna is receiving the most attention (or is it the bear’s?), there are other interesting new additions as well. Additionally, there is Sinistcha, a cunning Pok mon who poses as tea in order to sap the life energy of those who are stupid enough to consume it. But it appears that the Pok mon’s trick isn’t working too well. This could be because trainers are becoming more savvy or because they were alerted to the leaks. This newcomer’s peculiar traits are further compounded by the theory that it belongs to the same evolutionary line as Poltchageist.
Another name that has revived is Ogerpon, but this time it has additional meaning. According to leaks, it will exist in three distinct forms, each with special abilities ranging from strong defense to fierce aggression. Ogerpon is a Pok mon to watch out for because of its many forms, which provide the gameplay a new level of strategy and intricacy.
The reappearance of previous Pok mon species, especially those who were missing from the original SV game, seems to be the main focus of The Teal Mask DLC, aside from these newcomers and new forms. According to leaked Pok dex data, the DLC will take players to the Kitakami region, which is home to a number of reintroduced species from areas like Sinnoh, Hoenn, and Alola. For players who are hankering after monsters from Pok mon Sun and Moon and other games in the series, this is wonderful news.
The existence of several Hisuian Pok mon and Alolan forms like Ninetales and Golem is also noteworthy. Though they may not be available in the wild just yet, Turtwig, Chimchar, and Piplup from the Sinnoh region show up in the data as HOME transferrable, suggesting that they could be available in upcoming Tera Raid events or possibly in the second half of the DLC, The Indigo Disk.
Leaks frequently serve as double-edged swords in an ecosystem as dynamic as Pok mon, generating excitement while also posing a risk to lessen the happiness that comes with formal announcements. There’s little doubting that the impending Teal Mask DLC is going to be a fantastic addition to the Pok mon universe, regardless of whether you’re a purist waiting for The Pok mon Company to give its blessing or an enthusiast who thrives on leaks. And regardless of how the details initially surfaced, it’s reasonable to conclude that the world is ready to explore these new places given the game’s global appeal, which is demonstrated by its crossover into Pok mon Go‘s Paldean Adventure event.
A new live-action drama centered around Pokemon has been confirmed. Lastly, October 3 is when Detective Pikachu Returns is slated to premiere.
