We got our latest look at Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet tonight and a bunch of new information was revealed.
The biggest piece of information was definitely the fact that the Legendary Pokemon Koraidon and Miraidon will be available from the get go and they’ll act as mounts to get through the open world which is the brand new Paldea region. This includes driving, flying and getting through the sea on your trust Pokemon mount.
There are three modes of transport:
We got another look at multiplayer which also includes the ability to get around the open world with friends on your legendary mounts alongside three friends.
There will be 8 gyms in the game which is one of the three stories that the game will feature. The other two haven’t been spoken about yet, but it was said that you’ll be able to go through the three grand stories as you see fit.
There will also be a greatly expanded Pokedex. We got a new look at new Pokemon including Wooper (Paldean Form), Fidough, Cetitan, as well as Tera form Pokemon (basically big crystal Pokemon) which are able to change types and enhance moves in Tera Raids (which seem to by like Dynamax raids).
Those that pre-order the game will be able to get a special Pikachu that cannot be caught in game. It knows the move fly and its Tera Type is flying.
Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet release on November 18th.
