In a relatively swift Pokemon Presents, The Pokemon Company treated fans to a new look at Pokemon Champions and Pokemon Pokopia, both of which will arrive later this year. And then, as the final reveal, we got our first peek at what’s coming for the 10th generation of Pokemon. Pokemon Winds and Pokemon Waves are officially headed to the Switch 2 in 2027, and we already have our first look at the starters in the game’s announcement trailer.
Pokemon Winds and Waves Confirmed for 2027
In today’s Pokemon Presents, Game Freak finally revealed the next main series installment in the Pokemon franchise. And as prior leaks have suggested, the games will be called Pokemon Winds and Pokemon Waves. From the first look we got in the trailer, they will be set on a tropical island with some serious Hawaii vibes. You can see what Gen 10 has to offer in the reveal trailer below:
After a nostalgic look at prior Pokemon gen art, the trailer shows off the island paradise where Gen 10 will apparently be set. The trailer doesn’t give away too much about the new game, showcasing primarily pior gen Pokemon.
We do, however, get a first look at the new region, including what looks like a few key locations that will no doubt be central to the story. The trailer also shows off a first look at the new protagonists for Gen 10. The trailer also confirms that Gen 10 will not release this year, but is slated to arrive in 2027. It will also be a Switch 2 exclusive, suggesting that Game Freak plans to make full use of the console’s hardware. And in a surprise move, the trailer also reveals the starters for Pokemon Winds and Pokemon Waves.
