Earlier this year, Nintendo fans witnessed the debut of a Pokemon Presents event. It was focused on a major update to the Arceus, while also sharing the first glimpse of a fresh entry in Scarlet and Violet.
Following the news of 2022’s E3 getting canceled, there were speculations of Nintendo not doing a direct at all. The latter is the flagship event featuring all the important and exclusive details for all the new releases.
However, recent rumors have hinted towards a strong possibility of the developer and publisher going for its own event during the period of this year’s Summer Game Fest. It’s taking place on Thursday, June 10 at 11 am PT / 2 pm ET / 6 pm GMT.
Now a very reliable insider in SamusHunter, on Twitter, has mentioned in her recent tweets that Nintendo will, indeed, present crucial reveals this week.
The coming week I would describe as the calm before the storm, a week where Nintendo will get rid of the last of its old announcements and plans in order to let the next one go free. Launch/Reviews of Mario Strikers and FEW3H previews (with perhaps the release of the demo).

There is already a new game releasing on Friday in Mario Strikers for the Switch. On the other hand, another exclusive in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is expected to get a preview or a demo, according to Samus.

When a fan asked her about the chances of another Pokemon Presents in 2022, she mentioned that currently; she has no major information on this topic. However, she did specify that when she first learned about the past week’s Scarlet and Violet presentation, she thought it was going to be a “Presents”.
Right know I only know about the presentation already happened. My source told me a presentation for S/V this week with a trailer of about 3 minutes, with gameplay, leggendaries reveal with CGI and release date. Given the word "presentstion" I thought was going to be a Presents.
