Summary
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’ssecond DLC,The Indigo Disk,promises to include regional forms of Pokemon introduced in previous games that did not make an appearance inScarlet and Violet’sbase game. It will accomplish this via its setting, Blueberry Academy, featuring the “Terarium,” a series of artificial biomes where Pokemon from around the world can live and thrive. While some regional forms, such as Alolan Sandshrew, have already been confirmed to appear via trailers, there are some more regional Pokemon that would make perfect additions to Blueberry Academy’s collection.

Alolan Vulpix And Ninetales
With the Ice-type Alolan Sandshrew confirmed to be making an appearance inThe Indigo Disk,its fellow Ice-type from Alola, Vulpix and Ninetales, should definitely not be left out. Currently transferable toScarlet and Violetvia HOME,Alolan Vulpixstill deserves its own dedicated appearance in the second part of the DLC. This adorable Pokemon would be perfectly at home in the icy Biome of the Terarium and would be a powerful Ice-type battler players could use to take down Blueberry Academy’s Elite Four.
Why Alolan Vulpix / Ninetales Should Appear
Galarian Slowpoke, Slowbro, And Slowking
Of the new forms introduced in theGalar region ofPokemon Sword and Shield, the new take on the Slowpoke line definitely got the short end of the stick. This pure Psychic-type and its Psychic/Poison evolutions were not introduced until a later patch, meaning their appearances were limited to theIsle of ArmorDLC. A larger role inThe Indigo Diskis exactly what this slow but powerful Pokemon deserves.
Why Galarian Slowpoke / Slowbro / Slowking Should Appear
Galarian Stunfisk
A major element ofPokemon Scarlet and Violetis open-world exploration, with players encountering Pokemon wandering around the vast wilderness of Paldea and the biomes of the Terarium.Galarian Stunfisk, which likes to hide on the ground and disguise itself as ordinary garbage, would be a very fun wild encounter to include in the Terarium, as players could easily be surprised during their exploration by this Pokemon’s clever hiding strategies.
Why Galarian Stunfisk Should Appear
Hisuian Sneasel (And Sneasler)
Although theHisuian forms introduced inPokemon Legends Arceuswere once thought to be extinct,The Teal Maskproved this wrong by having several found alive and well in Kitakami. These included Basculin’s evolution Basculegion and a special Bloodmoon form of Ursaluna. Hisuian Sneasel and its new evolution, Sneasler, were popular Pokemon inArceus -especially due to their connection to beloved returning character Ingo - and many fans would be happy to see them populating Blueberry Academy’s Terarium.
Why Hisuian Sneasel / Sneasler Should Appear
The Indigo Diskhas been confirmed to add several new Pokemon to those obtainable inScarlet and Violet,including Starter Pokemon from previous generations. Hopefully, regional forms outside of those native to Paldea will also be included in this list, as the unique environment of Blueberry Academy would be perfect for these special Pokemon to flourish and thrive.
