FULL STORY
======================================================================

Game Freak has announced that Pokmon Scarlet and Violet 's upcoming DLC will 
feature a brand-new spooky Pokmon called Poltchageist. 

Revealed in a new teaser trailer, Poltchageist is a matcha green tea Pokmon 
that will be made available in The Teal Mask expansion and be classified as a 
grass and ghost type. 

'The Haunting Tale of Poltchageist' trailer showcases the origins of the 
spooky tea caddie in a short animated story, explaining how it was passed 
down through generations. According to the trailer, after being neglected for 
years the tea caddie transformed on its own to become Poltchageist. The 
animation shows the Pokmon confronting a woman who accidentally knocks over a 
teacup and decides to sprinkle some matcha tea over her. 

Poltchageist's eerie abilities allow it to spread matcha onto people, and, 
after drawing the fumes back in, it can use its powers to draw the life force 
and strength from people. A bit grim for the whimsical world of Pokmon, no? 

Poltchageist is another Pokmon that draws on the "tea" theme and joins others 
in the grouping such as Polteageist and Sinistea. 

 The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 1: The Teal Mask is set to release on 
September 13 for Nintendo Switch . Part two of the expansion - The Indigo 
Disk - doesn't have an official launch date but is slated for a winter 2023 
release. 

Game Freak recently announced that The Indigo Disk will feature every starter 
Pokmon from the series' previous titles , including Bulbasaur, Squirtle, 
Rowlet, Scorbunny, and Mudkip. This marks the first time all 24 starter 
Pokmon will be featured together in a single game - a real milestone for the 
series. 

It was also confirmed that The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero expansion will 
add Pokmon Home compatibility . The new feature will be added with update 
3.1.0 - which doesn't have a release date just yet - and will allow players 
to transfer their newly caught Pokmon through compatible games like Scarlet 
and Violet and Pokmon Legends: Arceus.
