Now Playing: Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet (Ed Sheeran’s Celestial) Official Trailer
Special limited-time events will also be available for standard Tera Raids, with in-game crystals marked with special auras that indicate the Pokemon’s Tera type inside. The first of these limited-time events is set for November 24-27 with Eevee taking center stage with multiple Tera types.
The trailer also showcases two new lore-based items coming to the games, called the Scarlet Book and the Violet Book. Each book appears in its respective game – the Scarlet Book in Pokemon Scarlet and the Violet Book in Pokemon Violet – and describe a quest to unstable areas of Paldea that may contain unique and powerful Pokemon. Two of the book’s entries were detailed in the official press release:
The monster known as the Great Tusk “The Scarlet Book describes how this ferocious monster attacked the expedition team with its large body and tusks, mortally wounding one of the explorers.” The monster known as Iron Treads “It is said in the Violet Book that when this monster curls its body and rolls to attack, it leaves a trail embedded in the ground, as if it had burned the earth.”
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet launches on November 18 exclusively on Nintendo Switch. The products discussed here were independently selected by our editors. GameSpot may receive a share of the revenue if you purchase anything featured on our site.
