Seven Important Goals to Complete in The Teal Mask

The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 2: The Indigo Disk is almost here, so be sure to complete these tasks in your Kitakami adventure.

With the impending arrival of Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet’s next DLC adventure, The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 2: The Indigo Disk, now is the perfect time to journey back into the first part of the expansion, The Teal Mask, to complete your adventure in the land of Kitakami before travelling to Blueberry Academy as an exchange student. Check out our list of important tasks to complete in Part 1: The Teal Mask before Part 2: The Indigo Disk arrives on December 14, 2023.






Complete Your Kitakami Pokédex

One of the most obvious things to do in Kitakami is catch all the available Pokémon in the area. Don’t worry, though—completing your Kitakami Pokédex may not be as daunting a task as you might fear. In fact, the Kitakami Pokédex shares some Pokémon with the Paldea Pokédex, so if you’ve already played through Pokémon Scarlet or Pokémon Violet, you may be well on your way to completing this goal. Once you’ve added 90 Pokémon to your Kitakami Pokédex, remember to start checking the Pokédex after every 10 Pokémon you register in it—you’ll earn useful items for doing so.

There are also a few Pokémon that can only be caught towards the end of The Teal Mask’s storyline. For example, there’s the Legendary Pokémon Ogerpon, which must be defeated multiple times before you get a chance to catch it. You’ll need a well-balanced team to counter its different forms.

Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti—the trio of Legendary Pokémon known as the Loyal Three—can only be caught after you’ve completed the DLC’s main storyline. They’ll be scattered around Kitakami, but if you were paying attention to where you initially faced them during your adventure, you shouldn’t have much trouble finding them. Just make sure your team is equipped to handle these Pokémon. (It helps to know that all three are Poison type!)

If you find yourself missing some Pokémon, keep an eye on Kitakami’s Tera Raid crystals. You’ll sometimes find rare Pokémon waiting to be battled. There are also a few version-exclusive Pokémon in Kitakami, so you might need to do a bit of trading. Remember that Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet are compatible with Pokémon HOME, so if you need to register Pokémon in your Kitakami Pokédex that you’ve already caught in other compatible games, you can transfer them into these titles to save time and effort.

Once you’ve completed the Kitakami Pokédex, talk to Jacq outside of Mossui Town. He’ll reward you with the Glimmering Charm, which increases the number of Tera Shards you receive from Tera Raid Battles.


Perrin and the Bloodmoon Beast

Another benefit of filling out your Kitakami Pokédex is that it opens a side quest leading to an encounter with a rare Pokémon. Near Mossui Town’s community center, you’ll find a photographer named Perrin who wants you to register 150 Pokémon to your Kitakami Pokédex. Once you do, she’ll tell you about a mysterious Pokémon known as the Bloodmoon Beast that she’s looking to photograph, and she wants your help—after you defeat her in a battle, of course!

You’ll follow Perrin to the Timeless Woods, where she’ll ask for your help taking pictures of Pokémon during a foggy night. Wander around and snap photos of 10 different Pokémon—but be careful not to scare them away. Once you’ve completed this task, the mysterious beast will reveal itself, and you’ll begin a battle against it. Once you’ve drained the Pokémon’s HP, you’ll have an opportunity to catch your intimidating-looking foe.

When you return to Mossui Town later, chat with Perrin again. She’ll thank you with a Choice Scarf, which boosts the Speed of the Pokémon holding it, but only allows the use of a single move. She’ll also give you a Hisuian Growlithe to add to your team.


Follow the Glitterati

Just outside Mossui Town, you’ll find an elegantly dressed couple overlooking the rice paddies. These wealthy tourists are the Glitterati, and chatting with them begins a side quest that can earn you loads of money. You’ll be challenged to a battle, which has a substantial cash reward for winning, before the pair decides to head back to the Paldea region to visit a waterfall. Track them down again, and they’ll reward you with some valuable items, share some life advice, and provide you with a clue to their next destination.

Continue following the pair on their journey, and they’ll give you even more items for your troubles, as well as the occasional battle rematch. You can increase the amount of prize money you receive from the battles by using the moves Happy Hour and Make It Rain, and by giving one of your participating Pokémon an Amulet Coin to hold. The items you’re gifted along the way can be sold for quite a bit of money, too. Just by completing this side quest, you could potentially become a millionaire yourself!

After several encounters with the Glitterati, you’ll collect a Glitterati Rotom Phone case and a new emote (more on those below). The excessive cash you earn from these Trainers can be used for anything, of course, but you might want to consider donating to rebuild the Loyalty Plaza monument after completing The Teal Mask’s main story. With enough money, you’ll earn the Flashy Festival Jinbei outfit and another emote.


Take On the Ogre Clan

During your travels around Kitakami, you may stumble across a Trainer wearing an Ogerpon mask in some out-of-the-way area. These are members of the Kitakami Ogre Clan, a group of tough Trainers who are looking for equally tough opponents. A man standing near Kitakami Hall will tell you all about this crew, and he offers up rewards for each member of the clan you defeat.

It can be tricky hunting down all the members as they can hide in unusual locations such as in caves or atop mountains, but the man by Kitakami Hall will provide some hints to where you can find them. Each member is accompanied by a team of powerful Pokémon whose levels tend to fall in the mid-to-high 70s range. You’ll want to bring some of your toughest Pokémon to these battles.

Remember to chat with the man outside Kitakami Hall to claim your rewards. The ultimate prize is an Ability Patch that can change a Pokémon’s regular Ability to their Hidden Ability.


Ogre Oustin’

If you’re up for a challenge, partake in a few rounds of the traditional Mossui Town game of Ogre Oustin’. This event has you riding on Koraidon or Miraidon as you attempt to pop different colored Ogre Balloons, gather Berries, and return them to their proper tables within a strict time limit—all while scaring away greedy Pokémon that attempt to swipe your hard-earned Berries.

The game can be surprisingly tough, but it’s a fun way to play with your friends and earn some cool rewards, including a Shiny Munchlax to add to your team! For an in-depth look at Ogre Oustin’, check out our strategy article for winning tips.


Collect Emotes

Another great way to pass the time in Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet is to use your in-game camera to take selfies during your adventures. You can add extra flair to your snapshots by using emotes to make your character strike a pose. There are multiple emotes that can be learned as you travel around the land of Kitakami. Some will be discovered after completing a side quest (such as the Glitterati quest discussed above), while others will simply be taught to you by chatting with random people around the area. Talk to everyone—you never know what they’ll tell you.

You can discover more about these special selfie poses in our in-depth look at The Teal Mask’s camera app features.


Customize to the Max

Shortly after arriving in Kitakami, you’ll receive a Teal Style Card. This item increases the selection of items available to purchase in boutiques and hair salons in Paldea. With this item in hand, you’ll have lots of new options to customize your character. There are also wearable goods that can only be found in Kitakami, so visit the local shops and vendors to check out their masks, glasses, a selection of cool Rotom Phone cases, and more.

Don’t overlook the man standing near a picnic table just outside Kitakami Hall who enjoys making chairs for picnickers. By showing him any tablecloths that you’ve collected during your travels, he’ll fashion you sets of matching handmade chairs. How generous! Show him all the available tablecloths in the game, and not only will you receive a whole lot of chairs, but he’ll also give you a set of Herba Mystica. Even more generous!






Have fun taking care of these tasks, and you’ll be even more prepared for the release of The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Part 2: The Indigo Disk when it arrives on December 14!
