But out of the mountains of fake information occasionally comes a nugget of truth, and this time, that might be one Scarlet and Violet leaker revealing the release timeline for an upgraded Nintendo Switch\u2014though it isn\u2019t likely.\u00a0 In one of the always pleasant 4chan threads regarding the Pok\u00e9mon Day 2023 Pok\u00e9mon Presents broadcast, which mostly boiled down to fake leakers dropping long posts about their \u201cinside information,\" one user stands out.\u00a0 Written out in poor English via translator, the poster claimed to be a programmer for a company Game Freak and The Pok\u00e9mon Company outsources work to and shared a very brief list of information specifically focusing on Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet\u2019s DLC. And unlike every other post about the presentation, this user nailed every single aspect of the reveal\u2014barring some of the smaller details like Pok\u00e9mon names or locations for the DLC.\u00a0 Related: Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet get Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC, Legendary Paradox Tera Raid event The post noted the full name of the new DLC expansion, The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero, the inclusion of Paradox Suicune and Paradox Virizion along with their typings, the descriptions of both new Legendary Pok\u00e9mon for the DLC, and the DLC purchase bonus featuring more trainer clothing.\u00a0 Some of that info could have been guessed from previous leaks or speculation, but the sheer accuracy in some of the finer details is where this post shines. But that doesn\u2019t mean the last line talking about the second DLC launch and a new Switch is also accurate.\u00a0 While it could end up being true that a new Switch model will launch alongside or around \u201cDLC2\u201d for Scarlet and Violet, there are some inconsistencies there.\u00a0 First, the person writing the post claims to be a programmer from an outsourced company that works on Pok\u00e9mon. That alone likely points to them having no direct lines to information from Nintendo beyond Pok\u00e9mon titles, which limits the possibility of info on a Switch Pro or Switch 2 getting to their hands like the DLC info could have.\u00a0 The poster also notes that they speak poor English and used machine translation on the text they shared. This could easily mean the translator stuck words together in an awkward way that may have changed the meaning of that last sentence.\u00a0 It could very well be that the person meant to say something closer to a graphics enhancement patch will be released alongside DLC2 on the Nintendo Switch and \u201cmodels\u201d is out of place or mistranslated from something smaller. That would also better line up with some of the wording in recent Scarlet and Violet patch notes regarding continued improvements to the gameplay experience.\u00a0 Related: All confirmed returning Pok\u00e9mon for\u00a0The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Scarlet and Violet DLC So even though it is clear the original post did have some inside information, the role the person claims to have and the use of translation software put heavy doubt on the legitimacy of their info on a new Switch model.\u00a0 As always, take this information lightly until Nintendo or one of the company\u2019s partners actually confirms it is true. Fans have been burned before by buying into leaks and rumors that seem to have some accurate details but end up being wrong, even though they could end up being true in the end. For now, fans will simply have to wait for the release of Scarlet and Violet\u2019s The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero, and specifically Part 2: The Indigo Disk, to see if any of that last statement holds up in winter 2023.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/27165020\/Pokemon-Scarlet-and-Violet-Switch.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/808805"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1706"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=808805"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/808805\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":808878,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/808805\/revisions\/808878"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/808815"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=808805"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=808805"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=808805"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=808805"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=808805"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=808805"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=808805"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
