Every February 27th, The Pokémon Company hosts a Pokémon Presents show to celebrate the series’ anniversary. This year is no exception and fans will get a glimpse of what’s in store for the series next year. If you want to tune in, here’s where, when and what to expect.
Where and when can I watch Pokémon Day Presents?
As is usual with Nintendo, the showcase will stream at dawn on February 27th at 9am Eastern Time/6am Pacific Time. The Pokémon Company has not posted a link to the video at this time, but it will be hosted on the officially Pokémon Youtube channel as soon as it goes live. If you were asleep at the time, the entire show will be available as video-on-demand on the channel after it airs.
What to expect at Pokémon Day Presents
Pokémon Day Presents have become a staple of every year of the series, but it’s only in recent years that it’s become The Pokémon Company’s go-to source for major announcements. In recent years, games like Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Luminous pearl, Pokémon Legends: ArceusAnd Pokémon Scarlet And Violet celebrated their public debut in these streams. At the moment we don’t know what Pokémon The game will be released this year, but there is a strong possibility that a new RPG will be released for the Switch this year.
There are a lot of rumors circulating at the moment, but nothing concrete. The most common theory is that we may see a remake of the DS games Pokémon Black And Whiteas they are next up for a remake Brilliant diamond And Luminous pearl. If true, this would be the first time that a Pokémon The remake starts on the same platform as the last one, namely the Switch successor The target is reportedly 2025
While this may be the safest possibility, there are some unrealistic predictions such as a similar new spin-off Pokémon Legends: Arceus or the let’s go Games, or The Pokémon Company could take a break from its annual holding and rely on a non-RPG for video game sales in 2024. There wasn’t a new game last year, though Scarlet fever And Violet I have two DLC expansions with me The teal mask And The Indigo Disc. Still, The Pokémon Company was able to bring new games to shelves through re-releases Scarlet fever And Violet with the extensions it contains.
Beyond an update on the next RPG, we’ll likely get updates on several live service games. The MOBA Pokémon Unite
Will Pokémon Day feature anything other than video games?
Yes, probably. That should set the tone Pokémon as a brand for the year, meaning we could very well hear updates on the trading card game as well as the new anime is set to premiere on Netflix on March 7th. So be prepared for a little bit of everything.
Whatever The Pokémon Company shows, the series has been in a strange place lately after a chaotic 2023 And the success of the perceived competitor Palworld. We hope the showcase delivers and gives fans something to look forward to rather than just more of the same.
