But what will it be about?

And faced with a lot of bugs in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, and the reception given by the community because of it, it’s still too early to finalize the next major parts of the license. We may be entitled to receive detailed information about Game Boy and Game Boy Advance Pokémon games coming to Nintendo Switch through the Switch Online service. This would make sense, as Pokémon Day marks the anniversary of the franchise’s first games – Pokémon Red and Green debuted in Japan on February 27, 1996. The event may also reveal details about game updates such as Pokémon Masters Ex, Pokémon Unite, Pokémon TCG Live, and Pokémon Go.

Speaking of Pokémon Go, last weekend developer Niantic asked players to stay away from the Las Vegas public park unless they bought a $30 pass to attend the event. 17,000 without a pass would have ended up on site, resulting in network saturation and a rather unpleasant experience for many participants. Niantic offered to players who paid for some free items to play.

We ask trainers who do not have tickets for Pokémon GO Tour: Hoenn – Las Vegas not to join us at the park tomorrow to ensure a smooth experience for Sunday ticket holders and trainers who have the Sunday Extra Day add-on.
