Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl will release November 19. Old features are returning such as the underground and contests, but have been updated for this game. For example, the underground is now know as the Grand Underground which will run throughout the Sinnoh region and host new areas known as Pokémon Hideaways. These themed areas will house Pokémon you can't find above ground and is tied to the layout of your base. A new Nintendo Switch Lite themed with Dialga and Palkia on it will be available November 5.



Pokémon Legends Arceus is coming January 28, 2022. Taking place in the Hisui region, as Sinnoh was known in the past, you'll encounter both new and old Pokémon in new ways. Shown in the trailer were evolutions to Stantler and Basculin, Wyrdeer and Basculegion respectively, as well as Hisuian forms to both Braviary and Growlithe. Encountering Pokémon is also changing where you'll have to sneak up on them or approach them slowly in order to capture them. Sometimes you'll have to fight the wild Pokémon first. The trailer also showed off changes to the battle system. Not only are there Strong and Agile styles for your Pokémon's attack, there is also an action order system. Depending on the moves you use, you may be able to attack multiple times before the wild Pokémon.


Finally, the video ended with the announcement that the new Diamond and Pearl as well as Pokémon Legends Arceus will be supporting Pokémon Home sometime in 2022.


There you have it, a quick overview of what was shown off in the nearly thirty minute presentation. This only scratches the surface of the video so definitely check out the full Pokémon Presents stream at the top of the page or watch the two other trailers I added to see everything in Brilliant Diamond, Shining Pearl, and Pokémon Legends Arceus.
