The new Pokemon Scarlet and Violet video covers terastalling, picnicking with your Pokemon, and more

A new Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Trailer has been released detailing some of the things you’re up to in the game.

It covers all sorts of things from customization to raids, picnics, and Tera-type formations.

The video explains how as a student you can participate in an independent study program called Treasure Hunt. It shows the journey of four prospective trainers in search of their own “treasure”. We’re assuming they’re Pokemon.

A trainer’s journey shows you how to terastallize (crystallize) your Pokemon, which adds an extra punch to your Pokemon’s Tera-like moves. You’ll even come across Pokemon in the wild that do this in battle. You’ll know which ones to use that particular move since they sparkle. Some tera-types are different, so say you caught a normal/fairy Jigglypuff, its tera-type might be water.

There are 18 different types of Tera and each Pokemon can have one.

The video then shows the Let’s Go command, which automatically sends your lead Pokemon on its way to battle a Pokemon it finds. The command also allows your Pokemon to pick up an item for you.

Team Star are the “troublemakers” in the game and you will come into contact with them at their base. Ring the bell and they will let you in to fight. It looks like there will be a lot of grunts at the base throwing all sorts of Pokemon your way, so it’s best to be prepared. Once you’ve defeated all of the grunts, you’ll fight Mela, the boss of the Fire Crew.

The video switches to another coach’s journey and shows the game’s TM machine. With this machine you can create your own TMs.

The video then moves on to discuss Titan Pokemon and trading, showing Girafarig’s new evolution Farigiraf looking like wearing a helmet, Gym Battles, Tera Raid Battles, character customization, taking selfies and other photos and showing how you can have picnics with your Pokemon where you will play with them and even bathe them. You can also prepare food, and certain ingredients make certain types of Pokémon easier to catch.

There’s more in the video too, so check it out.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are coming to Switch on November 18th.
