The return of the Pokémon World Championships has been exciting to watch and no doubt even more exciting for those who have gotten to attend and compete in-person. News about the upcoming Pokémon Scarlet and Violet games has been promised during the Worlds closing ceremony, although that is not the focus of the event wrap-up.

- New move, Tera Blast, which will change type after a Pokémon has Terastallized
