What Pokemon Fans Want to See at Pokemon Presents This Year
February's Pokemon Presents is traditionally a landmark event for *Pokemon* enthusiasts, packed with significant news. Last year's event unveiled *Pokemon Legends: Z-A* and *Pokemon TCG Pocket*. This year, fans have their wishlists ready. Here's what they hope to see at Pokemon Presents 2025, ranked by likelihood:
Pokemon Legends: Z-A Release Date
Above all, fans are eager for The Pokemon Company to announce the release date of its next main series game. Since the initial announcement, updates on *Pokemon Legends: Z-A* have been sparse, suggesting a distant release. However, slated for 2025, Pokemon Presents would be the ideal platform to provide a concrete release date.
Fans are also keen to learn whether the game will launch on the much-anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 or remain on the current Switch.
What’s Next for Pokemon TCG Pocket
Trading is set to be the next major feature added to *Pokemon TCG Pocket*. Originally planned for January 2025, if this feature rolls out as scheduled, fans will be eagerly awaiting the next big update.
Developer DeNA has hinted at significant developments for the year, and Pokemon Presents would be the perfect stage to unveil these plans. While new Booster Packs are on fans' wishlists, the teased "other new features in development" could indicate something even more substantial.
Big News for Pokemon Sleep, Pokemon GO, UNITE, and More
Pokemon Presents is expected to cover updates across various mobile and live service games within the Pokemon franchise. However, pinpointing fans' specific hopes for each game is challenging.
*Pokemon GO* faced challenges in 2024, and while fans would welcome major changes, such as improved avatars or restored accessibility features, these seem unlikely in the immediate future.
Regarding *Pokemon Sleep*, as it transitions to Pokemon Works, players are anxious about its future. Last year introduced a new Legendary Pokemon to *Sleep*, and fans are hoping for similarly exciting news this year.
While new information is almost certain for these live service games, the exact nature of these announcements remains a mystery.
Pokemon Gen 10 News
Speculation suggests that Generation 10 might launch in 2026, marking the 20-year anniversary of *Pokemon* games. This timeline places a first look just over a year away, not an impossible scenario given past announcement patterns.
However, The Pokemon Company might prefer to maintain focus on *Legends: Z-A* and might not be ready to reveal details about Gen 10 yet. Still, with little news on traditional main series games, it's possible we'll get some hint about Gen 10 during this year's Pokemon Presents.
Pokemon Remakes in the Unova Region
Rumors about Unova remakes persist, and fans are hopeful for their realization in 2025. With *Pokemon GO* celebrating the Unova region through the Unova Tour this year, and considering the typical cycle of remakes, the anticipation is high.
Given that *Pokemon Legends: Z-A* revisits a past region, a Unova remake could be an intriguing move. Although there's no established pattern for Legends-style games yet, anything could happen, including a Unova remake announcement this year.
These are the key announcements Pokemon fans are hoping to see during *Pokemon Presents 2025*.
