While the series will be getting a lot of attention this year surely, our next best bet at a big batch of news will likely be a Pokemon focused Direct – sometime during February, but more than likely on February 27th – which just so happens to be Pokemon Day this year. Pokemon Day has generally always been the day TPCI saves for reveals whether it’s new cards, or a tease at the upcoming new Pokemon games for the year, and with not only Sinnoh Remakes, Johto Remakes, More Galar DLC, or even an entirely new generation on the table for potentially being revealed this year; we still have Pokemon Unite as well as Pokemon Snap on the Nintendo Switch set to arrive this year – both titles still long-overdue for more news and updates.
It’s going to be an exciting year for Pokemon fans for sure, I myself can hardly contain the hype. We’ll be sure to keep you updated on the latest announcements and reveals for everything Pokemon as the 25th Anniversary celebrations continue.
