The announcement of PokePark Kanto is like finding a rare Pokémon in the wild—it's a thrilling prospect that taps into the nostalgia and wonder of the franchise's lush origins. While we wait for our chance to catch 'em all in real life, diving into the Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC will be a fantastic way to keep the adventure going

Combining the nostalgia of the Kanto region with a real-life amusement park experience is a masterstroke that could truly capture the magic of Pokémon for fans. While we all eagerly wait for our chance to catch 'em all in person, at least we've got some new Scarlet and Violet content to keep our Poké balls busy.
