The Switch rumor mill is on fire again, as a leaker has come forward claiming that a new model will be released alongside the second DLC for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet – otherwise known as The Indigo Disk.
That information stems from a 4chan user – which we would normally dismiss – but this person seems to have at least some insider knowledge. A post was made to the site last Friday, a few days before the new Pokemon Presents aired with the DLC reveal.

Three more Pokemon have just been revealed for the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet DLC, with The Pokemon Company showing off Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti. These creatures “are beloved by the people of the village as heroes that protected the land of Kitakami in the past, and stone statues were made in their likeness to express the people’s gratitude.”
The DLC for Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet kicks off with The Teal Mask and The Indigo Disk. As we previously detailed, The Teal Mask sends you off on a school trip to the land of Kitakami, where a great mountain towers over the land and the people live at its base. The Pokemon Company has teased that you’ll “meet new friends and Pokémon as they unravel the mysteries behind the folktales that have been passed down in this land.” Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti will all be appearing in The Teal Mask, but we don’t have any other specifics.
