Will include new information regarding the DLC and "new product announcement".

On June 17 (Wed) from 10PM, the "Pokemon New Game Announcement: Pokemon Presents" will be premiered via the official Pokemon YouTube channel! The broadcast is scheduled to last 11 minutes and will contain information on the Pokemon Sword and Shield Expansion Pass and other products. Please look forward to it!

Oh, wow. Strange they do this the day the DLC releases.
Very curious about this. I think it's time we see what Pokemon Sleep is all about.
Hope we get a date on when Home and GO get connected. Waiting for this for a while now.

So ehm, we don't expect the Pokemon Diamond/Pearl/Platin remake announcement right? Is there a new Pokemon game coming this year even confirmed?

I'm guessing there'll be a trailer summing up everything in Isle of Armor (maybe that'll become available at the same time?)

Outside of that... Who knows. Odd they didn't use the Direct branding.

The fact that it specifically says "Presents," and not Direct, makes me think it's related to Pokémon Company products (Pokémon Go, Pokémon Sleep, etc.) and not, like, a new Pokémon game for the Switch.

The fact that they are doing this the very same day the new DLC releases and with the second part out later this year leads me to believe they won't be announcing the next core game (remake, revisit, etc).

Granted, we've never had DLC expansions before in the series, so we don't know if they are okay with promoting Sword and Shield content and then announcing a new game that won't be out until next year. Personally, I wouldn't do that.

Might not be Switch related. Maybe some other Pokémon products? Friendship with Mega Construx ended, now Lego is my best friend?

They are going to announce that the National Pokédex is coming back to the games!

Oh, wait no, it's going to be 15 minutes of someone explaining Pokémon Sleep.

Just need info on level scaling. I dropped Pokémon so hard because the difficulty was piss easy but I'll jump back if they introduce level scaling

Anything less than a 20 minute in depth breakdown of Pokemon Sleep will be a disappointment

If I buy this expansion under my Nintendo/eShop account will my wife be able to play it on her Switch profile (we only have one switch, two profiles; game on cartridge)? She's the only one going to play but her user's never connected to the shop before, so we might as well keep all the purchases in one place.

Edit: sorry I thought I was in the expansion thread, question still stands I guess.
