The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 1: The Teal Mask (Japanese: 碧の仮面 The Turquoise Mask) is the first expansion in The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. It was released on September 13, 2023 at 10 am JST.
It is followed by The Indigo Disk.
Plot
The player will be chosen to take part in a school trip that is held each year in collaboration with another school. They’ll be taken to the land of Kitakami, where a great mountain towers over the land and the people live at its base. It is a place of tranquil natural expanses, featuring rice paddies and apple orchards. The trip seems to coincide with a festival regularly held in the village in Kitakami during this season, so the village is bustling with various street vendors and stalls. Players will meet new friends and Pokémon as they unravel the mysteries behind the folktales that have been passed down in this land.
Features
Characters
Kitakami natives Carmine and her little brother Kieran are introduced.[1] Blueberry Academy teacher Briar[2] and Photographer Perrin appear as well.[3] A couple named Billy and O'Nare are also introduced in the expansion.

New Pokémon and forms
The Legendary Pokémon Ogerpon debuts in The Teal Mask. It has four forms, Teal Mask, Wellspring Mask, Hearthflame Mask, and Cornerstone Mask, with each form having a special Tera form when terastalized.[4] A Legendary trio called the Loyal Three[5], consisting of Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti, are introduced. An evolution of Applin called Dipplin debuts as well.[6] Another Pokémon revealed is Poltchageist.[7][8] It evolves into Sinistcha. While both heavily resemble Sinistea and Polteageist, they are an entirely different species. Poltchageist has two forms, Counterfeit Form and Artisan Form. Sinistcha shares the same pattern with its pre-evolution, having two forms, Unremarkable Form and Masterpiece Form. A new form of Ursaluna called Bloodmoon Ursaluna debuts as well.

Returning Pokémon
- Main article: List of Pokémon by Kitakami Pokédex number
102 returning Pokémon from previous games will be made available in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet alongside the release of The Teal Mask. These include:
New Activities
Timeless Woods
A side quest in Kitakami involves the player working together with Perrin in the Timeless Woods, an area in Kitakami where people rarely visit. The main goal is to help Perrin look for a mysterious Pokémon, revealed to be Bloodmoon Ursaluna. The player will take snapshots of Pokémon living in the forest while searching for the mysterious Pokémon.[3] The side Quest is unlocked after capturing 150 Pokémon in the Kitakami Pokédex and speaking to Perrin.
Ogre Oustin’
Ogre Oustin’ is a minigame the player can participate in, which involves the player collecting Berries by popping Ogre Balloons while riding KoraidonS/MiraidonV and bringing them back to the Berry Tables for points. Up to three other players can join either online or via local play. Some tasks players can focus on are collecting far-away berries or driving away greedy Pokémon seeking to eat the collected berries. The reward for finishing the minigame is Mochi.[9] Clearing all three difficulty levels of Ogre Oustin’ grants the player a Shiny Munchlax as a reward.
Mass Outbreak Events
Limited-time Mass Outbreak Events differ from a normal Mass Outbreak, in which the same species of a Pokémon will appear in multiple mass outbreaks for a limited time, not the entire 24 hours seen with a typical Mass Outbreak. The first Mass Outbreak Event announced will feature Clefairy, which will run from September 28, 2023 to October 1, 2023 in both Paldea and Kitakami.[10]
