Pokémon Scarlet and Violet largely follow the same basic gameplay structure of previous Pokémon games, where players obtain creatures known as Pokémon, primarily through catching and trading and use them to explore the world and battle other Pokémon trainers. By the end of 2022 they sold over 20 million copies combined, making them the fourth best-selling Pokémon games of all time. The games sold over 10 million copies in their first three days, making them Nintendo's biggest launch of all time. The games were praised for their open world formula and story, while their graphics and technical problems at launch received criticism.
Scarlet and Violet received mixed reviews from critics.
The games maintain features from previous modern Pokémon games, including large open areas and Pokémon appearing in the overworld. Also introduced are time-displaced creatures known as Paradox Pokémon, and the Terastal phenomenon, which allows a Pokémon to transform into its exclusive "Tera Type". Scarlet and Violet introduce 103 new Pokémon, alongside two new regional forms.
There are three separate stories the player can follow. The games take place in the Paldea region, based on the Iberian Peninsula. Unlike the previous instalments in the Pokémon franchise, Scarlet and Violet take place in an open world. The games will receive two downloadable content expansion packs comprising a single expansion storyline known as The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero, with the first part, The Teal Mask, releasing in Q3 2023 and the second part, The Indigo Disk, releasing in Q4 2023. First announced in February 2022, they were released on 18 November 2022. They are the first instalments in the ninth generation of the Pokémon video game series. Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet are 2022 role-playing video games developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company for the Nintendo Switch.
