During the 6/21 Nintendo Direct, they showcased a trailer for the Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Teal Mask and Indigo Disc DLCs. It was a three minute long video with much to uncover. I'm gonna go over the things I've noticed from the trailer and theories that I have about it.

1. The large amount of Unovan Pokemon present

I know I wasn't the only one to notice in the trailers that there was ALOT of Unovan Pokemon showcased across both of the DLCs, particularly the Indigo Disc DLC

I know I wasn't the only one to notice in the trailers that there was ALOT of Unovan Pokemon showcased across both of the DLCs, particularly the Indigo Disc DLC. From what I noticed, and this was what I noticed after one viewing of the trailer, I saw Blitzle, Zebstrika, Cottonee, Whimsicott, Golett, Golurk & Reuniclus. It was also announced separately that the Litwick line: Litwick, Lampent & Chandelure as well as Heatmor will be making a return in the DLCs. This is ALOT of Unovan Pokemon to showoff but Legends Arceus did the same thing: It featured ALOT of Unovan Pokemon as well as Black & White Ancestors. Sword & Shield ALSO had a good chunk of Unovan representation. Either its a coincidence that Pokemon has been representing Unova/The Black & White games alot for the last two Generations or this is Pokemon's way of saying we have a Black & White remake in the works OR a Legends game based on Unova.

2. We WONT get anymore new Pokemon Typings

This was a hot topic when the DLCs for Scarlet & Violet were first announced as we got our first look at Terapagos, a Legendary that'll be the focus of the Second DLC: The Indigo Disc

This was a hot topic when the DLCs for Scarlet & Violet were first announced as we got our first look at Terapagos, a Legendary that'll be the focus of the Second DLC: The Indigo Disc. Terapagos' shell sports scales that represent all of the Pokemon typings we know to date with NO room to spare. This suggests that Pokemon either A: Doesn't plan to introduce new Pokemon typings in the future or B: There WONT be anymore future Typings that Pokemon could introduce. The fanbase, for a long time now, have been dying for the Light and/or Sound typing to be introduced, but after seeing Terapagos & just how important Terapagos to the Anime currently, It seems like Pokemon WONT be adding anymore typings as it'd royally mess up the canon/lore unless they want to retcon Terapagos later on.
