A continuation of my previous book: Let's Talk About Pokemon. The first book reached maximum parts and I will be continuing on though here.
Here, I will be talking about literally anything to do with Pokemon from Top 10 lists, rankings, debates, Ea...
As of now, I've played through the main portion of the Indigo Disc DLC and all I have left is the optional/bonus content of completing the Blueberry Pokedex/Capturing the new Paradox forms and Legendaries. Therefore, here is an overal review of what the DLC entailed and my honest opinions on it.
The Indigo Disc DLC picks up in game about a month or two after the Teal Mask DLC as the player is invited to become an exchange student and attend the Unova region's Blueberry Academy. Upon arrival, the player is very soon notified that Kieran had 'changed' as a person and everyone is worried about him thus leading to Drayton, one of the Elite students at Blueberry, enlisting the player on a mission to conquer the Blueberry League and dethrone Kieran as Champion in hopes he reverts back to his old self.

When Kieran is defeated and DOESN'T revert back to normal, Ms. Briar of Blueberry Academy Is granted permission from Chairwoman Geeta to explore Area Zero. Ms. Briar, Carmine, Kieran and the Player explore the Area Zero lab and the Area Zero depths discovering a new Tera type called Stellar allowing Pokemon to become ALL types at once. They soon discover the hidden treasure of Area Zero and the reasoning why Terastalization is possible in a small turtle Pokemon named Terapagos. Kieran captures this Pokemon before quickly losing control of the Legendary Pokemon as it terastalizes and goes Berserk prompting everyone to team together and tame Terapagos once more. The player captures the newly released Terapagos and Kieran reverts back to his normal self.

100% The Indigo Disc DLC is miles better than the Teal Mask and definitely makes the DLC worth paying for/playing. Yes, I had a VERY bad opinion about the Teal Mask DLC as it was rushed and felt very 'hallow'. You can tell no love was put into the Teal Mask but in reality all of the time and effort went into the Indigo Disc instead. Doesn't make it right, not in the slightest, but my experience in the Indigo Disc is definitely one of my highlights playing Scarlet & Violet.
One of the highlights in the Indigo Disc is that it's about triple the size of the Teal Mask DLC. The map/play area of the Indigo Disc is as large if not larger than Paldea/The Main game and it took me about 12 hours to finish the main story of the DLC when the Teal Mask took me about 2 hours NOT including Pokedex completion. The Teal Mask Pokedex was 200 Pokemon large with majority of the Pokemon being already available in the main game which means about 50-75 Pokemon had been reintroduced/new to Scarlet & Violet. The Indigo Disc Pokedex is 274 Pokemon large with few to no returning Pokemon from the main game, and yes I counted how many new/reintroduced Pokemon there is and I counted 181 new AND reintroduced Pokemon exclusive to the Indigo Disc. Yeah, the Indigo Disc is Gargantuan!!!
