New information has surfaced that may indicate that a new Pokemon Mystery Dungeon title is set to be announced on Pokemon Day 2023. The new information points to the source code of the new Pokemon Together website that is part of the company celebration.
New Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Rumor and Pokemon Together Celebration for Pokemon Day 2023
On February 15, 2023, the Pokemon Company International published a video inviting fans to take part in the Pokemon Together event. This is a global campaign inviting fans from all over the world to post videos, photos, illustrations, and more to celebrate everything Pokemon leading up to Pokemon Day 2023, which falls on Monday, February 27, 2023.
The day will officially mark the 27th anniversary of the Pokemon franchise, which began with the release of the original Pokemon Red and Green in Japan for the Game Boy in 1996. Fans who participate all have a chance to be included in a special mosaic on Pokemon Day.
Most interestingly, fans who have taken a look at the source code for the official Pokemon Together website have discovered an interesting line that may hint toward a new game in the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series. Spike Chunsoft – the developers of the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series that began in 2005 – are listed in a copyright line of source code for the website, along side Nintendo and the Pokemon Company proper.
This may imply that something related to Pokemon Mystery Dungeon may be shown during Pokemon Day 2023, as the company traditionally does something to celebrate the occasion. Fans are speculating it may be a new entry in the series or a remake of 2009’s Pokemon Explorers of Sky, the most popular game by far.
The last entry in the series, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Rescue Team DX, released in 2020 as a Nintendo Switch remake of the original Pokemon Red and Blue Rescue Team for the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS. The last non-remake entry in the series was 2015’s Super Mystery Dungeon for the Nintendo 3DS.
More information is expected to be shared once Pokemon Day 2023 finally arrives.
