All new items, moves & abilities in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet The Teal Mask DLC

The first DLC for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, The Teal Mask, introduced a good number of new items, moves, and abilities. Here are all the new items, moves, and abilities that arrived with The Teal Mask:

Held Items

Item name	Effect
Cornerstone Mask	An item to be held by Ogerpon. This carved wooden mask is adorned with crystals and allows Ogerpon to wield the Rock type during battle.
Wellspring Mask	An item to be held by Ogerpon. This carved wooden mask is adorned with crystals and allows Ogerpon to wield the Water type during battle.
Hearthflame Mask	An item to be held by Ogerpon. This carved wooden mask is adorned with crystals and allows Ogerpon to wield the Fire type during battle.

All held items introduced in The Teal Mask are for Ogerpon, a Legendary Pokemon you can catch if you complete the main storyline. You’ll have to fight it first to see how these new masks work in the game.

Moves

Name	Type	Category	Base Power	Accuracy	Effect
Blood Moon	Normal	Special	140	100	The user unleashes the full brunt of its spirit from a full moon that shines as red as blood. This move can’t be used twice in a row.
Matcha Gotcha	Grass	Special	80	90	The user fires a blast of tea that it mixed. The user’s HP is restored by up to half the damage taken by the target. This may also leave the target with a burn.
Syrup Bomb	Grass	Special	60	85	The user sets off an explosion of sticky candy syrup, which coats the target and causes the target’s Speed stat to drop each turn for three turns.
Ivy Cudgel	Grass	Physical	100	100	The user strikes with an ivy-wrapped cudgel. This move’s type changes depending on the mask worn by the user, and it has a heightened chance of landing a critical hit.

Abilities

Ability Name	Effect
Toxic Chain	When a Pokemon with this ability hits an opponent with a move (contact or non-contact), the power of its toxic chain may cause the opponent to become badly poisoned.
Supersweet Syrup	The scent of this Pokemon’s syrup spreads across the battlefield, lowering the evasiveness of opposing Pokémon when it first enters the field.
Hospitality	When a Pokémon with this Ability enters a battle, it showers its ally with hospitality, restoring a small amount of the ally’s HP.
Mind’s Eye	The Pokémon ignores changes to opponents’ evasiveness, its accuracy can’t be lowered, and it can hit Ghost types with Normal- and Fighting-type moves.

These new abilities debuted in the game alongside new Pokemon like Bloodmoon Ursaluna and Dipplin. The Heroes of Kitakami, also known as the Loyal Three, are the toughest challenge in the DLC thanks to the Toxic Chain ability players are struggling with, so keep that in mind.

Every new item, move & ability in The Indigo Disk DLC

Meteorite	A rock that fell to earth from space. It’s slightly warm to the touch. It allows a certain species of Pokémon to change forms.
Synchro Machine	A device that synchronizes your mind and feelings with your Pokémon’s so that you can work as one. It’s still a prototype—hence its unrefined appearance.
