Introduction
It’s no secret that Pokémon games are some of the most highly anticipated releases for Nintendo Switch. With the release of Pokémon Legends: Arceus earlier this year, fans are already excited for what’s to come in the rest of the year. In this article, we’ll take a look at what we know so far about the upcoming Pokémon games for Switch 2023.
The Main Series Game
One of the biggest announcements for Pokémon fans was the confirmation of a new main series game for Nintendo Switch. While there’s no official title yet, we do know that it’s set to release in late 2023. The game will feature a new region, new Pokémon, and new mechanics.
New Region
The new region for the main series game is called Teltic, and it’s based on Celtic mythology. The region is divided into four parts: the Highlands, the Lowlands, the Coast, and the Forest. Each part has its own unique environment and Pokémon.
New Pokémon
As with every new Pokémon game, there will be a bunch of new Pokémon to catch and train. So far, we’ve only seen a few of them, including a grass-type Pokémon called Flousette and a fire-type Pokémon called Ignite.
New Mechanics
The main series game will also introduce some new mechanics, including a new battle system and a new way to catch Pokémon. We don’t know much about these yet, but we’re excited to see what they bring to the game.
Remakes
In addition to the new main series game, we’re also getting two remakes of classic Pokémon games: Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. These games were originally released on Nintendo DS in 2006, and they’re getting a fresh coat of paint for their Switch release.
New Graphics
The biggest change in the Diamond and Pearl remakes is the graphics. The games will feature 3D graphics, similar to the Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee games. The environments and Pokémon will look better than ever before.
New Features
The remakes will also include some new features, such as Mega Evolutions and Dynamaxing. These weren’t present in the original games, so it’ll be interesting to see how they’re implemented.
Conclusion
Overall, it looks like 2023 is going to be a great year for Pokémon fans. With a new main series game and two remakes, there’s plenty to look forward to. We can’t wait to see what other surprises Nintendo has in store for us.
