Nintendo and The Pokemon Company announced the Indigo Disc Pokemon Scarlet and Violet DLC release date and some tips for starting in the Pokemon game. The Indigo Disc DLC launches on Dec. 14, 2023, and if you bought the Teal Mask DLC, the Indigo Disc comes with it.
You also can’t buy them separately, so you’ll have to buy The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero if you want the Indigo Disc. Make sure it’s the version that matches your version – either Scarlet or Violet.
Before you can get started on your field trip to Unova’s Blueberry Academy, you’ll need to finish the full base game, meaning you need to defeat all eight Gym Leaders and Elite Four, complete the Star Path, and finish the Path of Legends.
The Indigo Disc takes you to an underwater academy with several different biomes where Pokemon from other regions flourish. You’ll have the chance to catch all the starter Pokemon from every previous game, along with ‘mon you can’t normally find in Paldea. There’s also a new Elite Four and plenty of tough trainers to test your mettle against.
Since the academy is in Unova, some fans are speculating that Game Freak is gearing up for Pokemon Black and White remakes. Pokemon Day is only two months after The Indigo Disc releases, so we’ll know soon enough whether that speculation turns out to be true.
