Updates to Pokémon Sword & Shield & Pokémon GO

Before we get to the big reveal, other notable announcements include a new Max Raid event in Pokémon Sword and Shield (celebrating the launch of the Isle of Armor Expansion) featuring Zeraora. If one-million players have the skills to take out this mythical Pokémon, they will receive a shiny Zeraora as a reward!

An update for Pokémon Sword and Shield featuring the expansion is now available to download. New content is also coming to Pokémon GO, including Mega Evolution and the ability to catch Galarian Farfetch’d.

NEW Pokémon Snap

The presentation did not leave us without a big surprise. After years of waiting, a new Pokémon Snap game, titled (you guessed it) “New Pokémon Snap”, is coming to Nintendo Switch. Since the release of the original Pokémon Snap in 1999, fans have been clamouring for a new entry in the series, and fans have finally gotten their wish! The new title features fan favourite Pokémon from past generations as well as brand new Pokémon from the Galar region.

To close out the presentation, Tsunekazu Ishihara teased a new project in the works and promised new information to come via another Pokémon Presents on June 24. Fans will not have to wait long for even more Pokémon information to be excited about.
