We got our first look at Pokemon Winds and Pokemon Waves yesterday during The Pokemon Presents presentation and it looks to be shaping up to be something special. The games are Nintendo Switch 2 exclusives, which mean that they should take advantage of the more powerful hardware and won’t be constrained by the original Nintendo Switch console. IGN has confirmed that the games take inspiration from the Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia with many users from those countries excitedly proclaiming that various landmarks found in the trailer largely resemble those seen in the Philippines and surrounding areas. Pokemon Winds and Pokemon Waves launch in 2027.
Thanks to SonicGalaxy27 for sending in the news tip!
I’m actually excited for a mainline Pokémon game.
LET’S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~
I was thinking half of it would be base on the Bahamas but now we got our inspiration setting. Lets go!
I don’t know why, but this keeps reminding me of the wind waker. But this game looks great and I love the setting. Great representation.
It would be nice to get a gym leader like Sagat from Street Fighter 2 on pokemon waves and winds. He would be better than that ugly loser called Avery in Galar.
