Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are outstanding titles in the grand scope of the franchise, as they are arguably the most innovative of the bunch, possibly even more than Pokemon Legends: Arceus - albeit on a different level. Innovation is part of what drives new Pokemon games' success, as each new title strives to add new features or rework older ones, and in this regard, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet breaking big traditions set by past games helped make them unique and inherently alluring titles. With Gen 8 setting the precedent for post-launch content via two expansions, it seemed natural for Gen 9 to come with at least two DLCs - and so it did, also dramatically changing one big rule set by Pokemon Sword and Shield's Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra.
