We’ve been waiting for news on the pair of games for a while, and The Pokemon Company has finally announced that aPokemon ScarletandViolettrailer is on the way
The news comes via a tweet fromthe official Pokemon UK account, and we have an actual date/time:June 1 at 9AM ET. For clarity, you can find the trailerhere on the official Pokemon YouTube account. The tweet suggests turning on notifications, and hasn’t provided a live stream link.
All we have to go on at the moment is that it will feature “the latest onPokemon ScarletandPokemon Violet,” and that it seemingly isn’t a lengthy showcase. Historically,these types of reveals involve narrated trailers, sometimes upward of 10 minutes or more in length, which showcase some of the game’s locales, creatures, and features.
The current hope is that thePokemon ScarletandViolettrailer puts its best foot forward, showcasing potential future developments that feel like an evolution of the series: rather than resting on the laurels ofSwordandShield. In the wake ofPokemon Legends, it feels imperative that they actually highlight significant changes and upgrades, as people will be expecting it.
Based on what they’ve shown so far though, those expectations aren’t super high.
