All Confirmed and Leaked Pokémon Returning to Scarlet & Violet Indigo Disc & Teal Mask
All of the Pokémon returning to Scarlet & Violet have been leaked by a trusted source.
Pokémon Scarlet & Violet are getting two big DLC updates this year — Indigo Disc and Teal Mask. A new trailer dropped during Worlds that showcased a lot of the content coming in the DLC, including a lot of returning Pokémon.
The biggest update was seeing all of the starters returning, something that was very nostalgic for long-time trainers. But that wasn’t the only reveal when it came to returning ‘mon. Now, Pokeos has created a cheat sheet that shows all of the returning Pokémon.
All Pokémon Returning to Scarlet & Violet
The most recent Scarlet & Violet trailers have revealed a lot more Pokémon coming back to the game and it can be a bit tricky to keep track of. Luckily, Pokeos created a handy guide that shows all of the confirmed returns shown in trailers leading up to this point.
But Pokeos has also included Pokémon that have not been officially confirmed but that were instead spotted in game files. These datamined Pokémon have not been announced by the Pokémon Company itself but are more than likely going to make an appearance as well.

While some of the listed leaks are definitely fan favorites, especially the ‘mon from the first few generations, others are still holding out hope for other Pokémon that have yet to be confirmed or datamined.
It’s possible these Pokémon could appear later on, but developers have admitted they are looking to slow down game production. Since the beginning, a new game has come out every year. But developers said it may take longer in the future to release games and content, aware that they need more time to work on games if they want them to be done right.
