Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players turn the game into Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players have found a way to turn the game into a fun new Tony Hawk simulator thanks to the new Indigo Disc DLC.

First released in 2022, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are the latest additions to the long-running franchise, updating what many know and love about the Pokemon experience. With a fully realized open world and more to explore than ever before, the game completely changed what many knew about the franchise.

The game was plagued with game-breaking bugs and issues upon release, over a year later, Scarlet and Violet managed to resolve these issues and proved to be more popular than ever.

The Indigo Disc DLC, released on December 14, 2023, includes a Sync feature that allows players to control their Pokémon.

And while that may not have been the original goal when the developers introduced the new feature, players are now turning their Pokemon into skaters, turning the game into a kind of Tony Hawk simulator.

To unlock this feature, players must visit the central plaza of the terrarium and have the opportunity to control your own Pokemon there.

With this in mind, players have been sharing clips of Pokemon skateboarding online and these clips have gone viral on TikTok and other social media platforms.

Twitter user PokeDoodles Posted a video of the game. While playing as Goldengo, the player shared a montage of them gently skating around the world on a golden skateboard. Pokedoodles captioned their video, “Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater: Pokemon Edition.”

Many other Pokemon players expressed disbelief that the feature was “real” in the comments section, asking, “How do you do that?”

“It would be so much fun catching glitter like this, come on Pokemon,” wrote another.
