Pokemon's 25th anniversary year is rolling on and there are still some major titles on the way for the franchise. There hasn't been a lot of information regarding the upcoming Pokemon Brilliant Diamond, Pokemon Shining Pearl, and Pokemon Legends: Arceus. That will change with Wednesday's Pokemon Presents video direct.

There's no indication of how long the Pokemon Presents video presentation will last.

All of these games already have release dates. Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl will release on November 19. Pokemon Legends: Arceus will arrive on January 28. However, little has been shown regarding gameplay and features, so expect to see a lot of that today. All three of these games will release exclusively on the Nintendo Switch.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
