Predictions for Pokémon Presents 2025: What Are You Excited About?

As we look forward to the 2025 Pokémon Presents, many fans are buzzing with excitement about what might be revealed. The event is expected to show off gameplay for “Pokémon Legends: Z-A,” focusing on exciting features like the protagonist, the interactive urban settings of Lumiose City, and various elements of the battle system. While a concrete release date may be speculative, there’s hope we’ll at least get a glimpse of various gameplay aspects. Some believe that the Pokémon Company may want to avoid committing to a firm date so they don’t end up with another unfortunate situation like with “Scarlet and Violet.”
While most fans are eager to see gameplay and perhaps new Pokémon, there are questions about the event’s scheduling. Some suggest there could be a dedicated presentation just for “Legends: Z-A” later, especially as details about the “Switch 2” are still under wraps. Speculation is that the game will launch close to the holidays, possibly in late 2025, which gives them a bit of leeway for scheduling.
Many expect that an initial gameplay trailer will feature a new Pokémon or possibly a variant from a previous generation. It would also be great for fans to see a fresh art style that differs from past teasers. The anticipation is also building for new features; some are particularly interested in seeing city-building mechanics explored.
Aside from just new games, fans are also hoping for updates to existing Pokémon apps. Predictions include updates for “Pokémon GO” events, improvements to the “Pokémon TCG Pocket,” and new content for “Pokémon Café.” Some enthusiasts even wonder if the brand will surprise us with a new mobile app, perhaps themed around cooking or management.
Another significant point of interest is the possibility of a remake announcement. While some think it’s too soon to shift focus away from “Z-A,” there is rampant speculation about which titles might be remastered. Many fans think a remake of the classic “Black & White” series could be on the horizon, especially since 2025 marks the series’ 30th anniversary. Some also suggest a remaster of “Pokémon Colosseum” would be amazing.
There are discussions surrounding whether we could get a sneak peek at Generation 10 Pokémon. Though it may be too soon in the context of focusing on “Z-A,” some believe that if the company wants to generate buzz for new hardware, teasing what’s coming can be a smart move. The consensus, however, is that everyone is hoping for a smooth experience, unlike the highly criticized launch of “Scarlet and Violet.”
Fans have also humorously discussed wild card reveals like classic game remakes, spinoff announcements, or even collaborations with other franchises. The overall hope is that the Pokémon Company offers something fresh and exciting, along with solid updates for the existing games and apps.
Lastly, the mystery surrounding “Switch 2” continues to spark discussions. While it’s likely that information about the upcoming console will be saved for a focused Nintendo Direct event, hints could emerge in the messaging surrounding “Z-A.” Fans are eager for the latest updates and are ready to share their hopes and wishes for what might be unveiled at the upcoming event.
