<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The latest Pokemon Presents has ended, revealing new information for the franchise. This includes new Pokemon, updated information on the upcoming DLC, and a look at the upcoming Detective Pikachu sequel game. So without further ado, let’s break down the news…</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Detective Pikachu Returns</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The sequel to the Detective Pikachu game was first announced during the recent <a href="https://g33khq.org/nintendo-direct-june-2023">Nintendo Direct</a>. Now, we’re given more information about the upcoming Detective Pikachu Returns. This includes a look at all the central characters, the investigation mechanics, and how certain Pokemon can assist in the investigations:</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The game will be released October 6th on the Nintendo Switch.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Pokemon Go Fest &amp; Paldea</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Pokemon Go Fest 2023 is approaching! While London and Osaka have already held their special Go Fest events, with New York quickly approaching, the Pokemon Presents reminded us that the global Go Fest will run from August 26th to 27th.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The mythical Pokemon Diancie will make its Pokemon Go debut, along with its Mega Evolution. Mega Rayquaza will also make its debut, allowing players to participate in Raid Battles to earn Mega Candy. (However, given that <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/niantic-raises-prices-of-pokemon-go-remote-raid-passes-implements-daily-limit/1100-6512867/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Pokemon Go recently doubled the price of Remote Raid Passes</a> and limited the number of Remote Raids players can do per day, players may find it more difficult to join in raids should they have difficulty getting to raid locations or live in an area where there aren’t many players, an issue fans have raised with the hashtag <a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%23HearUsNiantic&amp;src=trend_click&amp;vertical=trends" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">#HearUsNiantic</a> and Niantic has thus far refused to budge on.)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">On top of that Pokemon from the Paldea region, where the Scarlet and Violet games are set, will be appearing in the game starting in September. With this, every region from the main series of Pokemon games will be represented in the game, although not all of them will be made available at once (more Pokemon will continue to be made available over time). The full details of which Pokemon will be appearing first have not been revealed, but you can see the trailer below:</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Pokemon on the Switch Virtual Console</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The classic Game Boy Color game for the Pokemon Trading Card Game is coming to the Nintendo Switch. While the game has been re-released before on the Nintendo 3DS eShop, the eShop’s closure meant it was out of reach for many players. Now, it’s available on Nintendo Switch Online.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">On top of that, Pokemon Stadium 2 is also coming to the Nintendo Switch Online. This Nintendo 64 game includes Pokemon from the Gold and Silver games, as well as several mini-games for up to four players, featuring the 2nd generation Pokemon.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Like the last Pokemon Stadium release on the Nintendo Switch Online, players will not be able to import Pokemon from their games (including games purchased on the eShop or Heart Gold and Soul Silver), but they can still battle using rental teams from the game. It’s available now  for users who purchased the Nintendo 64 expansion pack.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Pokemon Scarlet and Violet</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Pokemon Scarlet and Violet games are getting their DLC update soon, and The Pokemon Company has plenty of news to share.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">First, Mewtwo and Mew are making their Scarlet and Violet debut. Mewtwo will be available in a 7-star Tera Raid battle starting September 1st. Players can work together to challenge Mewtwo and attempt to capture it. In preparation, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will also include extra Tera Raid Battle events from tomorrow until Mewtwo’s arrival.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">On top of that, players can get Mew for free, right now, using the Mystery Gift code GETY0URMEW. Each Mew will have a randomized Tera Type, nature, and moveset, although the password can only be used once, so once you get it, that’s the Tera Type you’ve got (unless you use an item to change it). The event will run until September 18th.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There will also be new Mass Outbreak events, wherein certain Pokemon will appear in much greater numbers across Paldea than usual. The first Mass Outbreak event will be a Clefairy event, starting on September 28th.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Finally, The Pokemon Company revealed new information about the upcoming DLC, including a brand-new trailer showing off new characters, Pokemon, and scenes from the game:</p>

</div></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In addition to the previously-announced story, “The Teal Mask” DLC also introduces new mini-games, including a photography game, and the “Ogre Oustin’” mini-game where players run down balloons shaped like the Pokemon Ogerpon. Players can win mochi, which can be used to boost or reset effort values for their Pokemon’s stats.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We also got new information about “The Indigo Disk,” including Blueberry Academy’s Elite Four, and new battle styles (including the return of Double Battles).</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“The Teal Mask” will be released September 1, 2023, with “The Indigo Disk” following this Winter.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>New Pokemon</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Along with the DLC comes several new Pokemon, including new evolutions and paradox versions of existing Pokemon:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Dipplin, a new candy apple-themed evolution of Applin:</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Two new Paradox Pokemon: Raging Bolt, a prehistoric take on Raikou which resembles a long-necked dinosaur, and Iron Crown, a mechanical version of Cobalion. More information on these Pokemon is not yet available.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The latest Nintendo Direct has landed, bringing with it news about upcoming games for players to look forward to. The June 2023 announcements included new announcements for Mario and Pikmin, a new look at the upcoming Pokemon DLC, and more &#8211; let’s take a look.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Pokemon DLC</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">New downloadable content for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet has been available for pre-order for a while now, but this Nintendo Direct revealed a new look at the upcoming stories: “The Teal Mask” and “The Indigo Disk.”</p>

</div></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In “The Teal Mask,” players will travel to Kitakami, where the Festival of Masks is underway. The storyline brings several Pokemon back into the game, while introducing a handful of new ones: Munkidori, Okidogi, and Fezandipiti, who were said to have “protected this land from the evil ogre.” Savvy viewers will recognize this as a parallel to the story of Momotaro, with the three Pokemon based on Momotaro’s companions. The video also gives us a closer look at said ogre, a new Pokemon called Ogerpon.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“The Indigo Disk” takes the players to Blueberry Academy, a Pokemon academy floating out at sea. Beneath the academy itself is a massive terrarium park, filled with different biomes and Pokemon previously unavailable in the game. It also reintroduces double battles to the game, and provides a closer look at the legendary Pokemon, Terapagos.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players can also receive a handful of items with the Mystery Gift code TREASUREHUNT, and a new Gimmighoul tera raid event has begun.&nbsp;</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Detective Pikachu Returns</strong></h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">While the original Detective Pikachu game was a mostly forgotten side game, it returned to the forefront of popularity with the live action movie, starring Ryan Reynolds as Pikachu and Justice Smith as Tim Goodman. Now, Detective Pikachu is returning with a Nintendo Switch game: Detective Pikachu Returns.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Sonic the Hedgehog</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Speaking of successful live action video game movies, Sonic the Hedgehog is also getting a new game: Sonic Superstars. This is a classic side-scroller featuring popular Sonic characters, including the blue blur himself, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy Rose.</p>
