Pokémon Presents 2026: All the news, trailers, and game reveals

The Pokémon Company went big for the first Pokémon Presents of 2026

The Pokémon Company celebrated its annual Pokémon Day on Friday with a new Pokémon Presents showcase that, as expected for the franchise's 30th anniversary, was appropriately big. Perhaps the biggest announcement was the reveal of Pokémon's 10th generation games, Pokémon Winds and Waves, but there was much more than that revealed at the first Pokémon Presents of 2026.

If you missed The Pokémon Company's big Pokémon news blowout on Friday while it aired live, you can read on for a quick rundown of every game, trailer, and release date announcement from the show.

Pokémon Winds and Waves
