Version 3.0.0 Featuring The Indigo Disk DLC Now Available For Pokemon Scarlett And Violet
Paldea Jones and the Indigo Disk
Version 3.0.0 is now available to download for Pokemon Scarlett And Violet. This update features The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 2: The Indigo Disk. Check out the feature list below!
The Synchro Machine
Once players progress far enough in their adventure in The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 2: The Indigo Disk, they’ll be able to use a device called the Synchro Machine to see the world through the eyes of their Pokémon. While synchronized with one of their Pokémon, they can move around and battle wild Pokémon—a fresh new way to play the game. It appears that this device is still a prototype. Players can use it once they’ve helped a scientist in the Terarium with her research.
The Power of Flight
The Legendary Pokémon Koraidon or Miraidon will gain the power to fly for the first time when Trainers take on the Elite Trial set by Amarys of the BB League Elite Four. While this power is at first believed to be only temporarily imparted, it can apparently be made permanent, allowing Koraidon and Miraidon to fly at any time—but only once players have made it far enough in their adventure. Trainers will be able to fly wherever they please with their Legendary Pokémon and enjoy the sense of freedom that only an open world can provide.
Legendary Pokémon
After completing the main story of The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 2: The Indigo Disk, Trainers can meet a curious character named Snacksworth at Blueberry Academy. By completing Blueberry Quests (BBQs) in the Terarium, Trainers can earn snacks from Snacksworth that will allow them to encounter certain Legendary Pokémon from throughout the series back in the Paldea region. He’ll also share his extensive knowledge about these Pokémon with Trainers—as well as tall tales of his own heroic encounters with them.
Want a fresh new outfit for your Pokemon Go Trainer? Even better, want a FREE new outfit in Pokemon Go? Well, you are in luck! To celebrate the release of The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 2: The Indigo Disk, all trainers will receive some new threads based on the DLC!

Check Out This Deep-Dive Into The Never Released Gamecube Game "Unity"
I thought we were using godot now?
For each game that does release, there are just as many (if not more) that don’t get the chance to see the light of day. Some of them even have considerable information about them floating around because they were planned to come out, but for one reason or another, it never worked out.
The good people over at TimeExtention have put together a rather impressive breakdown of the beginning, middle, and unfortunate end of Unity, which would have been a Gamecube exclusive back in 2003. As you may have expected, Unity was never released, leaving us with bits and pieces of what it would have been like.
Its a really interesting read, so make sure to check out the full breakdown here!
