Pokmon Presents livestream looks set for next month
Pokmon Presents livestream looks set for next monthLegends Z-A news likely - but will we see it running on Switch 2?Image credit: The Pokmon Company News by Tom Phillips Editor-in-Chief Published on Jan. 8, 2025 The Pokmon Company will once again hold a Pokmon Presents livestream next month, according to leak of data from Pokmon Go.Datamined references to a Pokmon Presents 2025 event tied to the franchise's annual Pokmon Day were spotted today by prolific code sniffers The Pokemod Group. The existence of a Pokmon Presents livestream on or around Pokmon Day (27th February, the anniversary of Pokmon Red and Green's original Japanese debut) is not a huge surprise. Pokmon Presents livestreams have often (but not always) been held on the date. Like a Pokmon-focused version of a Nintendo Direct, at least one Pokmon Presents broadcast has been held each year since 2015, and sometimes multiple times a year. Typically, these contain details on all Pokmon projects to be released over the coming months, including console and mobile games, plus other updates on the franchise.To date, we hadn't heard anything official about 2025's first Pokmon Presents, and this year bringing with it Switch 2 had potentially added another wrinkle, in that presumably the livestream will also feature whatever may be in the works for Nintendo's still currently unannounced console.This could include a Switch 2 version of the already-announced Switch game Pokmon: Legends Z-A (which was conspicuously revealed last year without showing any actual gameplay, as if a better-looking version was also in the works).All of this begs the question - will Switch 2 be unveiled before 27th February? That date is a month before Nintendo's own deadline to announce the new console (31st March), but judging by the pace of Switch 2 leaks now, it seems very likely.
