Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet are coming soon!

The awaited event was bound to offer some huge reveals. Over the last few days, theories were making the rounds on the internet regarding expected announcements on the Pokemon Presents livestream.

However, getting two fresh games in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet was something no one saw coming. Well, all things considered, this massive news offers a great reason to rejoice. Especially to those who are still waiting for the release of Zelda 2, a much-anticipated Nintendo exclusive coming in 2022.

Scarlet and Violet are being developed by GAME FREAK Inc, as per the newest reveal trailer above. Other than this, there’s no further information available right now, from the side of the developing team.

Hopefully, the fans will get to see more of these two games in the coming months, during major events and sessions. Until they make their debuts later this year, the hype will definitely keep going, now that everyone knows what’s going to happen.

Addressing other important takeaways from the event, this year’s smash hit Arceus got its much needed update v.1.1.0, named ‘Daybreak’. The well-received Switch title was rumored to have a big day already. So it didn’t come as a shock to many people.

But once again, the brief stream, which was only 14 minutes in duration, threw all the attention on Scarlet and Violet in an amazing fashion. The organizers really blew the minds of hardcore gaming fans with this reveal, to say the least.
