Pokémon Direct Hitting Friday - Big News Incoming?

[Demelza]

​

It has just been announced that a Pokémon Direct will be streamed on Friday. According to the press release the Direct will be bringing the latest information on Pokémon games, but it's worth noting that the runtime of the Direct will only be 5 minutes long.

The Direct will be streamed at 4PM CET (3PM in UK time), and 7AM PT. While Pokémon's 20th anniversary isn't until the 27th of February (Saturday), due to time differences this Direct will be hitting Japan as the date changes over to the morning of the anniversary. Definitely a fitting time to be making a major announcement as we suspect they will be!

So help me if it's a spin off game I am going to lose it.

ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN

 

[SquirtleLover]

I suspect this will be Pokemon Go! Let's hope I'm right!

CHOO CHOO!! XD

Is it Pokemo Go? The sequel game to XY? MORE GEN VII TEASERS? POKKEN TOURNAMENT NEWS?

Or is it another side game thing because that's all we've had for the past year and I would be disappointed if that's all we get again because I need main game info

I think we will finally get the 6.5 game we've been waiting for; anyone remember that leaked list of pokemon? It's time to finally find out if it's fake.

Which list is this?

 

[Psycho Monkey]

Five minutes is plenty of time to give us a quality Pokemon Z trailer. I'll be at work when it airs, but I know I'll find it here when I come home!

 

[Burgundy]

Hooray for hype!
Hopefully I won't forget and fall asleep. :v
I'm personally hoping for the next game. I'd be hoping for Pokken news too but it seems like everything has been finalized.

If it's a new gen I am going all the way to the party shop buy 100 party poppers and pop all of them and dance like Mr.Bean

 

[meIoetta]

Pokemon Z is already confirmed at this point with the leaked post. For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, TyranitarTube did a video on it: .

 

[Shiny Motley]

@meIoetta by just looking at the thumbnail of that video, it looks like it's just a video of fakemons and recolored released Pokemon (that is almost definitely a blue Volcanion in the thumbnail, as an example)

 

[Teapot]

@meIoetta I'm going to upgrade what @Kyubeon said – this is absolutely fake.

 

[Mewtwofan259]

Please let this be the Mewtwo spin off I've been waiting for 5 years.

 

[RafuRum]

its nice if they announce something like pokemon z or Gen 7 on the way.. but I really want that detective pikachu localized...

 

[Steel Seth]

I bet you anything it's going to be a reminder of Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow...


And I wouldn't mined that moment of "Suprise Mother$/#!&^" that there is going to be DLC for POKKEN Tournament (Even thought they said they wouldn't)

ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN

Reggie: We made too many games!
Miyamoto: Now we gotta hype them all.
Reggie: So all aboard the Hype Train!
Both: Choo Choo!
That was a Game Grumps Steam Train reference to the intro.

Detective Pikachu - International release confirmed!

(I really, really hope it doesn't end up being something like that, too... XD)
