Pokemon Scarlet and Violet May Have a Trainer Who Could Beat Gold and Silver’s Red

Andrea Trama — Wed, 20 Dec 2023 01:58:07 GMT

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's Indigo Disk DLC is a great example of what future games in the series can achieve even before expansions or third games are introduced, and it should be used as the foundation of what's to come rather than a generation's apex. One of the reasons why The Indigo Disk succeeds where base Gen 9 games failed is difficulty. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's level scaling approach meant that players could theoretically explore Paldea as they pleased, but every Gym or major encounter was still set at a specific level, and overleveling any of those would make the game a breeze. The Indigo Disk brings difficult battles back into the mix, and one trainer may now compete for the title of strongest of the series, even more so than the legendary Red or Cynthia.

Martin Wood — Tue, 19 Dec 2023 17:32:16 GMT

While Animal Crossing: New Horizons received critical acclaim and became the best-selling game of the series, the sequel may want to look to Nintendo's other trailblazers like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for ideas about where to take the wholesome slice-of-life simulator next.
