Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are set to release on Nov. 18, bringing players into the ninth generation of Pokémon and allowing them to find their own way through the Paldea region as they catch Pokémon, take on gym leaders, and find secrets.
Scarlet and Violet are building on the technology Game Freak used to develop Pokémon Legends: Arceus. The new titles are keeping many of the previous game’s advancements, including dynamic Pokémon in the overworld and player movement options. Exploration with friends appears to be a big part of the new games, as up to four people can move through the world together at a time.
Because we are still months away from the game’s release, more big trailers and reveals should be dropping periodically until launch. With each big reveal typically comes at least a few new Pokémon.
Along with the starters, Game Freak has been showcasing many of the new species that will be making their first appearance in Scarlet and Violet. Two of the biggest additions are the new legendary Pokémon that will be tied to the story and are gracing the games’ respective covers. Scarlet and Violet will also feature Paldean Form Pokémon, a series of regional variants of existing Pokémon that come with new appearances, new types, and new strategies.
Here are all of the new Pokémon players will encounter along their journey in Paldea.
