This week, an upcoming Pokemon Presents was announced as a way to celebrate Pokemon Day on February 27. For those not in the know, Pokemon Presents is an online show where Nintendo and GAME FREAK share great news for the fan community. Among the news, they usually present updates of their current games, some Pokemon events, and even the release of new video games. Typically, fans express excitement before and during the Pokemon Presents, but now there will be happy and nervous fans.
Fans Are Nervous About a Possible Pokemon Gen 5 Announcement in the Next Pokemon Presents
In the past weeks, in the gaming community, a strong rumor arose that the new Pokemon game could be related to Gen 5, which would be Black and White. Most players consider that Black and White, although they have the least favorite Pokemon designs, the story is one of the best of the whole saga. These versions have a very special place in the hearts of gamers, and that’s why there are so many opposing opinions. While some look forward to Pokemon Presents announcing a Gen 5 game, others are nervous that the company will repeat past mistakes.
One of the biggest concerns is that the possible Black and White game for Nintendo Switch will have the same bugs as Scarlet and Violet. Some fear they will recreate Unova in the Let’s Go, Pikachu! Let’s Go, Eevee!. While the latter two games are not bad, they didn’t offer anything truly innovative to the franchise or the original story. Unfortunately, fans will have to continue to wait nervously for this February’s Pokemon Presents and pray for the best. Remember that these are just rumors, and it’s not guaranteed they’re talking about a mainline or Gen 5 game.
If you also want to know what news this Pokemon Presents will bring, the show will be on the official Pokemon YouTube channel on February 27 at 6:00 a.m. PST.
