New Pokemon Presents dated for this month

Gabriel Stanford-Reisinger

On the heels of the recently announced Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase, it seems some “exciting news” is heading our way for us Pokemon fans. The event is dated for next week.

The official Pokemon Twitter shared its plans for a new Pokemon Presents, while not giving us much to go off of in terms of plans. While not confirmed, it feels kind of like this will be its way to segway into announcing the next mainline Pokemon game since 2022’s Scarlet and Violet, which housed some nifty DLCs.

After all the Palworld talk, it’ll be nice to see Game Freak have some time to shine without the “Pokemon with guns” element looming overhead. Whatever its plan is, we’ll have to wait until next week when the event goes live at 6 AM PST.

More Smash Jump: Adrian reviews Promenade, the Monster Hunter series sells 97 million copies, and Bandai Namco has slashed five different projects.
