The Pokémon Company International has revealed that the new moves Psychic Noise and Upper Hand will become available in The Indigo Disk, which is the second downloadable content for Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet.
Psychic Noise: This Psychic-type special move deals damage as it bathes the target in abrasive sound waves. This attack also prevents the target from recovering HP through moves, Abilities, or items for a certain number of turns.
Upper Hand: With this Fighting-type physical move, the user reacts to the target’s movements and strikes with the heel of its palm. If the target was trying to use a priority move, Upper Hand will get the jump on them, allowing the user to attack first and cause their opponent to flinch without fail. This move will fail if the target wasn’t readying a priority move.
In Part 2: The Indigo Disk, you will have the chance to study abroad at the Blueberry Academy, which is home to a facility called the Terarium Dome. This maintains a variety of ecosystems that provide a livable environment for Pokémon.
This world-renowned park beneath the sea was constructed to bolster the learning environment for strong Trainers. The Terarium Dome is made up of four areas, each of which features a unique climate and ecosystem. The artificial sky projected onto the ceiling and walls changes to reflect the time of day and weather. The temperature of each area is also carefully regulated, and Trainers will find completely different Pokémon in each area.
Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet’s The Hidden Treasures of Area Zero Part 1: The Teal Mask is planned for release on 13 September 2023, and Part 2: The Indigo Disk will release in Winter 2023.
