Pokémon Day 2025: Predictions and Hopes for Pokémon Presents
Every February, Pokémon fans eagerly anticipate Pokémon Day, a celebration of all things Pokémon, traditionally marked by a major Pokémon Presents showcase brimming with exciting news.
When is Pokémon Presents 2025?
While The Pokémon Company hasn't officially announced the date, Pokémon Presents usually coincides with Pokémon Day, celebrated annually on February 27th. Data mined from Pokémon GO strongly suggests a February 27th presentation this year. The exact time remains undisclosed, but a recording will likely be available post-premiere.
What Pokémon Fans Want to See
The February Pokémon Presents is historically a significant event for Pokémon news. Last year's showcase unveiled Pokémon Legends: Z-A and Pokémon TCG Pocket. This year, fans have several key expectations:
Pokémon Legends: Z-A Release Date
Top priority is confirmation of the release date for the next main series game. Information on Pokémon Legends: Z-A has been scarce, fueling speculation about its release. Given its planned 2025 launch, Pokémon Presents is the ideal platform for a concrete date announcement. Fans also anticipate confirmation of its platform – the Nintendo Switch 2 or the original Switch.
Pokémon TCG Pocket's Next Steps
Trading is the next significant feature for Pokémon TCG Pocket. Trading is theoretically slated for a January 2025 launch. If this timeline holds, fans anticipate the next major update announcement at Pokémon Presents. Developer DeNA has hinted at substantial upcoming content, making Pokémon Presents the perfect venue for a reveal, potentially including new booster packs and other unannounced features.
Updates on Pokémon Sleep, Pokémon GO, UNITE, and More
Pokémon Presents will undoubtedly feature updates on various mobile and live-service Pokémon titles. Specific fan expectations vary. Pokémon GO faced challenges in 2024, and significant changes are hoped for, though not necessarily expected immediately. Fixes for avatar issues or the restoration of accessibility features would be welcome. Pokémon Sleep's transition to Pokémon Works has generated player concern. Following last year's reveal of new Legendary Pokémon for Sleep, fans anticipate another significant announcement. New information for these live-service games is highly anticipated, though the specifics remain uncertain.
Pokémon Gen 10 News
Many believe Gen 10 will launch in 2026, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of Pokémon games. This suggests a potential first look at Gen 10 within the next year. However, The Pokémon Company might prioritize maintaining hype for Legends: Z-A, delaying a Gen 10 reveal. Nevertheless, the lack of news regarding upcoming main-series games makes a Gen 10 announcement a possibility.
Unova Region Remakes
Rumors of Unova region remakes persist, and fans hope for confirmation. Pokémon GO's Unova Tour adds weight to this speculation, following the established pattern of remakes. While Pokémon Legends: Z-A revisits a past region, the precedent for Legends-style games is limited, leaving the possibility of a Unova remake announcement open.
These are the most anticipated announcements for Pokémon Presents 2025.
