The chief operating officer at The Pokemon Company, Takahito Utsunomiya, has told fans attending the Pokemon Scarlet & Violet launch event in Tokyo, Japan, that Pokemon Scarlet & Violet is the most pre-ordered Pokemon game so far. It is not entirely clear if this is worldwide or just in Japan, but if the series launch is as big as it seems to be then we will undoubtedly get a press release from The Pokemon Company on Monday. The latest Pokemon adventures have an average score of 77 on review aggregator Metacritic. Here’s what was said via Safari Translate:
“Pokémon series that was born in Japan and raised by fans all over the world. The latest game will be released all over the world tomorrow, on November 18,” he said, thanking his fans, “I’m happy that the number of pre-orders is already the largest Pokémon series in the past. I’m looking forward to delivering it to you tomorrow.”
