A key fact about the region of Noroteo, from the Pokémon Scarlet and Purple DLC, makes its inspiration in Andorra very clear.
We already know that Pokémon Scarlet and Purple is going to give us a lot to do next fall and winter. The two downloadable expansions of the latest Pokémon games for Nintendo Switch are going to take us on an adventure outside of Paldea, but where exactly? One of them we do not know, but the first DLC of Pokémon Scarlet and Purple is going to take us to Andorraor a reimagining of it.
As collected by the user BarelyThere15 on Reddit, one of the brushstrokes of details about The Turquoise Maskthe first downloadable for the Scarlet and Purple expansion pass, reveals that the Shire of Noroteo is northeast of Paldea. They define it as “a place of calm plains, with apple orchards”, although the official website adds that its inhabitants “live at the foot of a huge mountain“.
Although there are more details that speak about a festival, vendors and many stallsin addition to a revelation that opted for a more Japanese than Western style, only the data of the location with respect to Paldea It already makes part of the inspiration clear to us, at least on a geographical level. And it is that, if Paldea is based on the Iberian Peninsula, as we well know, Noroteo must be the region of Andorra.
Will they confirm from The Pokémon Company this inspiration or will they leave it on the air? You just have to compare the maps of Spain and Paldeaalthough this looks like a certain legendary, to have it more and more clear.
Pokémon Scarlet and Purple had left more than a hint of its first DLC, The Turquoise Mask, and no one had noticed until now.
