Big Pokémon news has been promised to arrive in the shape of a Pokémon Direct. The 5 minute broadcast will air on Friday 26th of February at 7am PT/10 am ET/3pm GMT/4pm CET.
What do you think will be announced in the footage?
Stay tuned for our full live coverage on Friday!
NEW GAME ANNOUNCEMENT HYPE HYPE HYPE
PROBABLY. THE ABSOLUTE WORST THIS COULD BE IS THEM REVEALING ASH-GRENINJA’S FORM CHANGE METHOD. BUT SINCE THE POKEMON NIJI GUY SEEMS TO BE LEGIT, WE KNOW THAT WE’RE GETTING A 20TH ANIVERSARY GAME, AND THIS SEEMS LIKE THE PERFECT TIME TO ANNOUNCE IT.
Wait, it could be Pokemon Go news… Damn it Go, Go away -_-
Just 5 minutes? Oh wow, probably a teaser trailer like what they showed back in 2013 for XY
Hmmmmmm it cant be anything tooooo big…
(Denial)
Have some faith!!!
I sure hope it’ll be news of the new main game(s). It’s exactly one day before the true 20th anniversary, after all.
A trailer would be cool, with at least a couple of more new Pokémon revealed. Maybe even a new Pokémon map for that new game.
(Too bad I won’t be present at that broadcast. Guess I have to get updated later that day.)
No, actually, it’s exactly on the anniversary. It starts at midnight on Friday night in Japan, which seeing as Pokemon itself is japanese, is when the day of the anniversary begins.
So yes, it will most likely be news of the next core title. Whether new pokemon get revealed with it, is possibly up in the air. But this will probably be the announcement we’ve all been waiting for.
Come back here and we’ll be sure to have you up-to-date 😉
OMG This is IT!!!! It has to b a game announcement! There’s nothing else they would bother to talk about. 5 minutes is long enough If they cut any fluff out. If they just talk about the game then a short direct makes sense. I wouldn’t write this off just yet boys and girls lol
As somebody said above, with x and y if u took out the talking about older games, they used 4 minutes to announce x and y 🙂
Well i got my answer now~
If it’s about Pokémon Go, Pokkén Tournament, Detective Pikachu or the 20th anniversary distributions… I’ll freak…
Same
In the original Pokemon Direct they took 7 minutes to talk about the older games leaving 4 minutes to announce XY. The trailer itself too only a minute and half if that. I think 5 minutes is long enough and they won’t talk about anything other than the new game. EXCITE!
Watch it be like 3 and a half minutes of filler
I wouldn’t be surprised if they had a really long look back at the last generations and then 30 seconds of a tease for the new gen.
Nintendo said it is a BIG NEWS!
So forget Pokken, Detectiv Pikachu and say HELLO NEW POKÉMON GAME!
This has GOT to be the new Pokemon game. Isn’t this only the second pokemon direct? The other one being the huge news of X&Y..
It’s the 3rd. We had one just b4 XY’s release. I think they revealed M.Blastoise and M.Venusaur in that one
Ah, you’re right! It has to be main game related then 🙂
O boi
IT IS TIME
What is this feeling in my chest… It feels like….hype….or…hope
I think I’m just having a stroke
Just let it happen 😀
It’s time
*Gasps* *Thud*
Nope. Just heartburn. I get that alot too.
*Flat-lining*
The universe has aligned.
(Trying to stay calm. Wake me up inside)
(I can’t wake up)
Wake me up inside.
SAVE ME.
CALL MY NAME AND SAVE ME FROM THE DARK.

I always get confused with time zones…but 99% sure I’ll be at work when this happens, so I’ll be joining the party a little late Friday night haha
Where are you?
I’m In idaho, So Mountian time, So 8pm..Still Gonna Be Working :/
You’ll be working at 8:00 A.M?
I read it as pm, so nope, that’s even better 🙂
It’s 7 am PST/10 am EST. Unless you’re not in the US.
This is so exciting because nobody knows what it could be! Pokemon Z, XZYZ, X2Y2, Rainbow, or possibly even Gen 7 are the most likely. I’d just like to say that I’ll be at my computer at 6 am PT speculating for the announcement, so I hope you guys will be here too 🙂
How about Pokemon Z and Pokemon Delta Emerald.
I already said Pokemon Z and I doubt Delta Emerald, honestly. That’s another possibility though!
10 AM Friday for me. And I actually get to watch this one live this time because no class on Friday for me 😀
This is it guys!!! It’s been over a year now but I’m convinced based on recent events that now is the time that we’ve all been waiting for!!! I’m so excited for a new game, new megas, new story… but most importantly I can’t wait for this announcement to rekindle my love for Pokemon (I haven’t touched my 3DS in MONTHS)
Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon omg get it
Get yokai watch. That is filling my need for Pokemon until this new game comes out.
I was sceptical when my friend text me saying there would be a direct, I know how much Gamefreak troll us and wondered if it would just be about GO. But I’m gonna allow myself to get my hopes up. I mean, it is on the day of the 20th anniversary! I’m in the UK so god knows when I’ll find out.
New main game announcement: The Pokemon Gods have heard our prayers.
Go/Pokken/Anniversary stuff: NO NO GF NO GOD NO.
YESS FINALLY.
I just hope they show us a proper trailer.
This will also confirm if the other NX leaks are legit or not.
I have class at 10 on Friday….I was planning on skipping, but I got a take home quiz today and now I need to make some major decisions…….hahaha Either way I’ll b back by 1130 so at least I’ll still get to b around for the most part lol
SKIP
You’re gonna skip for 5 minutes of Nintendo Direct?
Do it
I’ll be heading to the bathroom and using the school wifi to watch it 😛
Not like my teacher cares; It happens to be the one class that I shouldn’t be in b/c I have another one which supersedes it, and my teacher knows it b/c she teaches both of them 😀
Well I was already thinking of skipping bc my class is joke, but I prolly won’t now lol
It’s ok I will accept this as birthday present.
it’s just for Pokemon Art Academy 2, now with one extra shade of yellow
did u think I deserve better than that ?……but I didn’t think so GF reveal this on their facebook account.
So no real direct this month. I’ll take this however. Next mainline game hype!
Unfortunately I work 4-9 Friday, but I’ll have Twitter notifications on and Moving to keep me updated via my watch.
Finally, new game. I really thought they were going to keep with a one game per year type of deal.
