Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have already started breaking records. There are only a few weeks left until the global release of the game, but the hype and anticipation of the fans are already making the game a huge hit. 

Scarlet and Violet are the 9th generation installment in the Pokemon franchise. Developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo, these new games are carrying a lot of expectations. As it was promised, these two games will bring some defining new features to the series. 

Pokemon is one of the biggest and most profitable franchises in the world. It has spawned anime adaptations, movies, books, merchandise, manga, and more. However, it all had begun with the games. But the gaming series was criticized for being too formulaic. 

But the latest installments Scarlet and Violet are promised to bring brand new additions to the classic Pokemon formula, such as open-world gameplay, transition-less combat, and many more. And the fans are all in for it, as these new pre-order records in Japan show how much the games are already in demand.
