Leaked documents and production concepts outline multiple upcoming Game Freak projects, including a Generation X title, a Galar-set game, and an MMO-style experience spanning multiple regions. Budget and sales figures indicate Scarlet/Violet DLC development cost about 500 million yen, while larger projects like Legends 2/ZA and Winds/Waves had budgets of 2 billion and 3 billion yen respectively. Indigo Disk and Teal Mask add-ons cost roughly as much as Pokémon Legends: Arceus' entire budget. The add-ons sold roughly 6.15 million copies in ten months versus 27 million for the base title, and a higher-priced title moved about 14 million copies, prompting plans to reduce DLC budgets. Concept art and plans also reveal originally planned DLC locations and unused design elements.
