Pokémon Day is here, and with it came a new Pokémon Presents showcase to let us all know what's going on in the exciting world of Pokémon. It's a huge year for the franchise, as it turns 30 today, which explains all of these exciting announcements.
Heading into this presentation, there's one major thing I was expecting to see, and that's the reveal of new Pokémon games in the form of gen 10, as there's no better way to celebrate the franchise's 30th anniversary, and I'm so happy to say that I was right.
Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen arriving on Switch today is also something to look forward to, and it's actually another reason I thought generation ten would be likely to appear, as it's a pretty big thing to announce that the GBA games are coming, so surely that means we have something even bigger was yet to come.
When was the February 2026 Pokémon Presents?
The Pokémon Presents showcase was at 6am PT, 9am ET, and 2pm GMT, and you can watch it below:
