Pokémon Violet and Pokémon Scarlet, the newest chapters in the Pokémon series, are coming to Nintendo Switch! With these new titles, the Pokémon series takes a new evolutionary step, allowing you to explore freely in a richly expressed open world.
New Pokémon to Discover
Learn new details about Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly – the three Pokémon from which you’ll choose your first partner – along with other wonderful new Pokémon, including the Legendary Pokémon Koraidon and Miraidon!
Sprigatito
Type: Grass
Capricious and attention seeking, it may sulk if it sees its Trainer giving attention to a Pokémon other than itself.
Quaxly
Type: Water
This serious-mannered Pokémon will follow in its Trainer’s wake. It’s tidy, and it especially dislikes getting its head dirty.
Fuecoco
Type: Fire
Fuecoco is laid-back and does things at its own pace. It loves to eat, and it will sprint toward any food it finds with a glint in its eye.
The World of Pokémon Has Evolved
Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet offer an open-world experience that only the Pokémon series can deliver-one welcoming even to newcomers to the series.
You can experience a new style of adventure, with a world that you’re free to explore at your leisure and not in an order dictated by the story. You will, of course, journey to hone your skills as a Pokémon Trainer, but many more discoveries and stories await you. Meet a variety of people and Pokémon, and adventure in the world of Pokémon the way you want to.
Meet the Characters
This new adventure features two different professors, and which one you meet depends on which version of the game you choose to play. Find out about these new professors along with Nemona, your new friend. In Pokémon Scarlet, you will meet Professor Sada, and in Pokémon Violet, you will meet Professor Turo. Each is carrying out research into certain lore passed down in the region.
Multiplayer Gameplay
Pokémon Violet and Pokémon Scarlet allow multiplayer gameplay with up to four players. Along with series staples, such as trading and battling Pokémon, you will be able to explore the various locations of the region in these games with other players. You can discover new Pokémon and explore unfamiliar areas with your friends and family, opening the door to an adventure more precious and fun than ever!
