In Part 1 you get to go on a school trip to the Kitakami region, “where a great mountain towers over the land and the people live at its base. It is a place of tranquil natural expanses, featuring rice paddies and apple orchards. The trip seems to coincide with a festival regularly held in the village in Kitakami during this season, so the village is bustling with various street vendors and stalls. Players will meet new friends and Pokémon as they unravel the mysteries behind the folktales that have been passed down in this land.”
Part 1 includes the new Legendary Ogerpon as well as the three Pokémon Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti, who are beloved as heroes by the region’s inhabitants.
Part 2 features the Legendary Terapagos as you embark to another academy as an exchange student.

Keep in mind this price is for the DLC for one game, so if you have both Scarlet and Violet and want the new content for both you'll need to pay double.
Scarlet and Violet’s upcoming update will include two new Paradox Pokémon based on Suicune and Virizion: Walking Wake (based on Suicune) with a Water Tera-type will be available in 5-Star Tera Raids in Scarlet, while Iron Leaves with a Psychic Tera-type will come to Violet.
