The hard copy of the games with DLC releases tomorrow. I wonder if The Indigo Disk will release to this as an update on 12/14? When they released the same for Sword/Shield, all DLC was already released.

I'm very excited to have a date! Although, I'm surprised they just shadow dropped the date without a trailer or anything. We'll probably see something else closer to release date, hopefully with a little more of a look at what's to come with the DLC.

Nice i was expecting it a bit later, now I'm wonderering if the Suicune paradox and the incoming Raikou paradox from this DLC are implying that Lucius's Entei will be a past paradox too. If so then it would be interesting to synchronize its potential raid with the anime.

Yes, I believe that was stated to be the case during the announcement of the hard copy.

Releasing DLC after the main game's launch can provide developers with valuable feedback and insights from the player community. This feedback can help shape the direction and content of the DLC, ensuring that it aligns with player expectations and addresses any shortcomings or desired additions in the base game.

This was my theory, too, though both the episode where Entei was mentioned in the anime and the new opening show regular Entei, so either they are just using regular Entei as a red herring placeholder before the actual paradox reveal or the Entei in the anime (and possibly the games) is not a paradox Entei after all. The extraordinarily animated opening, to me, suggests it's not a placeholder, but they could have animated two versions for this beforehand (so,much extra work!), so it's not entirely impossible. I guess we'll have to wait and see!

I also suspect all three beasts and all three musketeers may combine to form something resembling the sketches in the book in the game, but I have no idea how that would work.

Yes the opening bit is making me unsure, really hoping for an Paradox Entei/Lapras or unique version which adapted from living in another environment like the Bloodmoon Ursaluna.
