The Pokémon Company has officially confirmed that a brand-new Pokémon Presents livestream will air on July 22, 2025, at 6 AM PST—and it’s already shaping up to be one of the year’s most anticipated events for Trainers around the world.
Pokémon Legends: Z-A Takes Center Stage
The headline act of the showcase is expected to be Pokémon Legends: Z-A, the upcoming sequel to Pokémon Legends: Arceus and a spiritual follow-up to Pokémon X and Y. Set in Lumiose City within the Kalos region, Legends: Z-A brings Generation 9 creatures into the mix and teases the return of the fan-favorite Mega Evolutions, with leaks hinting at 27 returning forms, including Clefable and Meganium.
Back in February 2025, fans got their first deep dive into Z-A’s gameplay during the previous Pokémon Presents, where The Pokémon Company unveiled new traversal mechanics, characters, and a reimagined Lumiose hub. July’s presentation is widely expected to showcase even more in-depth gameplay footage and possibly a release date.
What Else Could Be Revealed?
Aside from Legends: Z-A, the July 22 Pokémon Presents may also include updates on several other highly anticipated projects:
-
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet for Switch 2 – Rumors and developer comments suggest an upgraded version tailored for Nintendo’s next-gen hardware may appear.
-
Pokémon TCG Pocket – The mobile adaptation of the iconic card game is due for more info after a quiet spring.
