As detailed in thelatestPokemon Scarlet and Violettrailer, the new games will let players go on picnics with their Pokemon. While out on these picnics, players can make custom sandwiches, picking the ingredients themselves. Different sandwich combinations offer different benefits for players. The example shown in the trailer shows players getting a boost when catching Fairy-type Pokemon, encountering Grass-type Pokemon, and battling in Ground-type raids.
There are other things to do inPokemon Scarlet and Violetpicnics besides making sandwiches. Players will also be able to use the opportunity to spend quality time with their Pokemon, cleaning them, playing with them, etc., not unlike the Camp mode fromPokemon Sword and Shield. But perhaps the most exciting thing about picnics inPokemon Scarlet and Violetis the fact that they give players the chance tocollect Pokemon eggs.
Spotted near the picnic table in thePokemon Scarlet and Violettrailer is a small basket. Once thePokemon Scarlet and VioletPokemon trainerexamines the basket, they are told that a Pokemon egg is inside. It’s unclear if this will be the only way forPokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers to get Pokemon eggs in the new games or if the daycare feature returns, so fans will have to wait for more information on that front.
ThePokemon Scarlet and Violetrelease date is coming up fast, and there’s still a lot that has yet to be revealed about the new games. Leakers claim that there areover 100 new Pokemon coming inPokemon Scarlet and Violet, but it seems fans will have to wait for launch to see them all.
