Pokemon Presents June 24th - "online team battle game" Pokemon Unite announced



What mysteries could the Pokemon series have to show us, in today's Pokemon Presents event? Following directly upon the other "Presents" that took place a few days ago, whatever this reveal is, The Pokemon Company considers it "a big project", so come find out what it is, when the stream begins at 8am CDT!

It begins with a trailer going over the history of how Pokemon has impacted people, by letting them battle, trade, and play together, in both TCG and video game form. The first "Pokemon Team Battle" game is here in Pokemon Unite. Tencent will help with the release of this game while TiMi Studios will assist in development. The goal for the game is to be an easily accessible coop Pokemon game for anyone to pick up and play. It'll have two teams of five Pokemon in each fight. For every wild Pokemon you defeat, your chosen Pokemon, that begins at level 1, will level up and learn new moves, or even evolve. It's free to play, and will be on mobile and Switch, with support for cross-play.

Gameplay is shown, where players pick their favorite Pokemon, ranging from Pikachu, Lucario, Charizard, Snorlax, and more. They're all in their pre-evolved forms except Lucario and Snorlax. When scoring on the opponent's side, the Squirtle evolves into Wartortle. You can destroy goals to stop opponents from healing. This is pretty much best described as a Pokemon MOBA.

The launch information will come at a later date.

That's a wrap.

I don't like to hate on stuff especially before giving it a chance but why this was hyped up so much for what it is I cannot understand. I didn't even want anything in particular from this stream, just something cool. Also can we just talk about that exponential increase in dislikes that was glorious.

Exactly my thought. It did not deserve its own announcement and hype up.
As much as I would have otherwise played this, the hype up and a seperate announcement for THIS has completely killed my mood.

However, with the number of dislikes, expect a "main series game in the making - announcement video" from pokemon company within days

Pokémon fans, “Please, actually fix the problems with Sword/Shield, that’s all we are asking for”
Pokémon company, “We hear you and we are releasing a Pokémon fighting game that you’ve asked for!”

Yeah, the three main things going against this, is Tencent, having it as a separated announcement and calling it a big project. I mean, it could very well be a big project, but they should have known "big project" would have messed with expectations.

But hey, Pokemon Snap.

I wonder when they started developing this? Can't be coming out this year. It may not even come out next year. At least not for the general public.

I don't think it is that bad, but since people are mentioning that game.
