Pokémon Day 2025

• Pokémon Champions, a new game developed by The Pokémon Works in collaboration with GAME FREAK, continues the tradition of Trainers putting their skills against those of others from around the world with the goal of allowing core game-style battles to be enjoyed by more players than ever before. It will be available on the Nintendo Switch family of systems and mobile devices, with Pokémon HOME compatibility allowing players to use Pokémon from previous titles.
• Pokémon Legends: Z-A is set to launch in late 2025 for the Nintendo Switch family of systems, and takes place in Lumiose City where an urban redevelopment plan is underway to shape the city into a place that belongs to both people and Pokémon. Trainers will select their first partner Pokémon, either Chikorita, Tepig, or Totodile, and then be introduced to the series' first real-time battle system with timing-based mechanics. In Lumiose City, Trainers will explore Wild Zones while using stealth or battles to catch Pokémon, while also encountering Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution, a powerful transformation beyond standard Evolution that is key to battle success.
