Critic Reviews for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet: The Teal Mask
The Teal Mask is yet another step in a slow quality downslide for this series: it runs terribly, looks ugly, feels predictable, doesn’t offer any of the freedom Scarlet and Violet’s main story did, and falls short in so many ways compared to just about every other Pokemon game and DLC I’ve played.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's first DLC expansion, The Teal Mask, is a commendable step in the right direction that's held back by some familiar technical shortcomings.
The Teal Mask is a fun diversion for Pokémon Scarlet & Violet players that builds on the base game's strengths, but also exposes its weaknesses that much more. Fortunately, those strengths sparkle and Terastalize into a breezy, fun experience that delivers some rich regional storytelling, great characters, and some fantastic new Pokémon. We wanted more, though - more love and care put into the visuals and the battles. The Indigo Disk has a chance to build on the foundations The Teal Mask has laid, and we hope that's exactly what it will do.
Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: The Teal Mask is good, excelling in its storytelling, but the performance issues really do damage what would be an otherwise stellar piece of new content.
Perfect if you're looking for a well-built story and a wide variety of Pokémon, as long as you don't care too much about performance or graphics quality.

Technical problems and a lack of difficulty balancing spoil what would've been a neat slice of DLC, with some surprisingly good storytelling.
’ll spend about five hours finishing up the story, and 10-15 hours cleaning up everything else, with a full Kitakami ‘Dex. I really hope Indigo Disk brings it, because at present, the current incarnation of the season pass is tough to recommend.
While performance issues have tarnished the experience, we've had a good time returning to the world of Pokémon Scarlet and Purple in The Turquoise Mask. It's an entertaining expansion; Not like to shoot rockets, but it's fine and leaves us with the promise that the best is yet to come.
