IT'S SEPTEMBER 12TH!! POKEMON DLC PART 1 JUST DROP!!

[snorvus]

So I’m still riding off the hype of the S/V DLC and a lot of it seemed to be be based off folktales which is something I really like and I need to info dump my theories so my thoughts are now going into the endless sea known as the internet

I’ll probably split it up into two posts one for each DLC

So first is part one The Teal Mask (most of theories for this one come from my brother and some of them are mine)

Very epic awesome promo art with characters that show up in part two of the DLC’s promo art

Anyway theory time

Most likely Kitakami is based off Chūgoko which is a prefecture in Japan, it’s a bit away from other places and seems to have mountains nearby and Kitakami was described as being at the base of a mountain

The town however is probably going to be based off a city called Okayama which is a city associated with the legend of Momotaro which the legend of Momotaro seems to actually be very important to the plot and the new Pokémon

In the story a peach was found by an elderly couple and inside was a baby boy which they named Momotaro Momo meaning peach and Taro meaning eldest son, when he grew up though he ended up leaving his family to fight a band of oni where he befriended a talking dog, monkey and pheasant which seem VERY similar to the new Pokémon revealed each based off a dog, monkey and pheasant

(Okidogi, Munkidori and Fezandipiti)

But that probably means that the new Pokémon Ogerpon

This guy, is Momotaro right? But i don’t think so

In the sign Okidogi, Munkidori and Fezandipiti seem to be chasing it off which means it’s probably based off one of the Oni that they fought with Momotaro which means there might be a Pokémon that takes Momotaro’s place, or YOU the trainer are taking his place and helping rid the island of the Oni Pokémon that are causing problems for the islanders or maybe undiscovering the old story of them and that’s all I have for this DLC part but I do have some theories for the second part as well

I am VERY excited for this DLC and I am definitely looking forward to it

If you are traveling from a western region to Kitakami, your trip would involve a flight to Kanto,Johto, or Sinnoh, then a bus ride to the Kitakami border. For example, if you are traveling from Paldea, it would take 12-13 hours to fly over to those regions, then an extra 5-8 hours for the bus ride. It is recommended for travelers to plan an overnight stay in Kanto,Johto, or Sinnoh.

In the past Kitakami used to have a riverport, but with the advent of trucks, cars, and buses, their port has fallen out of use. As of now, there are no current plans to build an airport.

A recall has been issued across various regions for Kitakami Farms Mochi. It has been reported that people have fallen ill after consuming the sweets.

In addition to the Community Center, Mossui Town has two other major buildings: a primary school and a 24 hour medical clinic. Other facilities the town provides include such as the public library, post office, and the town’s government, which are all based in the Community Center.

Kitakami has never had a permanent military or police force, but in times of unrest in the past, it has conscripted its population to defend it.

The Kitakami region is famous for its apple mochi, particularly ones shaped like applin or dipplin.
