The three Pok\u00e9mon we were given a brief glimpse of during the Pok\u00e9mon Presents | 2.27.2023showcase are called Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero \u2728| Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Pok\u00e9mon Violet\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yiYSuUoI-dY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>In <em>Part 1: The Teal Mask<\/em>, the first of two DLC releases, players will visit the land of Kitakami on a school trip. Kitakami is overflowing with natural beauty and features a large mountain with a village at its base where people live. The DLC will involve unraveling the mysteries of the folktales that have been passed down in Kitakami.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new Pok\u00e9mon Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti are also reminiscent of characters in the famous Japanese folklore <em>Momotaro<\/em>, or <em>Peach Boy<\/em>. Okidoki has a dog-like design, Munkidori is similar to a monkey, and Fezandipiti looks like a pheasant. The Legendary Pok\u00e9mon for <em>Part 1: The Teal Mask<\/em>, Ogerpon, also doesn\u2019t look totally unlike an ogre making the ensemble resemble the dog, monkey, pheasant, and ogres that appear in <em><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Momotar%C5%8D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Momotaro<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Information has also been revealed about <em>Part 2: The Indigo Disk<\/em>. In this DLC update, players will visit their academy\u2019s sister school, Blueberry Academy, as an exchange student. Blueberry Academy is a recently built school that focuses on Pok\u00e9mon battles. Additionally, most of the school is located under the ocean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, both parts of <em>The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero<\/em> DLC will include over 230 Pok\u00e9mon that didn\u2019t appear in the base game of <em>Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet<\/em> and <em>Violet<\/em>. We\u2019re looking forward to seeing the reveal of more information about the upcoming DLC.<br><br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:12px\"><em>Written by.
