Nintendo held a short but informative showcase for its various Pokemon games this week, dropping plenty of new details on its upcoming remakes, mobile spin-offs, and a grand reimagining of its core series. In case you missed the 27-minute Pokemon Presents presentation for August 2021, you can catch up on it below or you can take a quick read of the biggest announcements for what to expect from Pokemon in 2021 and 2022.
Pokemon Unite
Nintendo’s Pokemon MOBA is officially coming to iOS and Android mobile devices on September 22 and will feature cross-play with the Nintendo Switch version of the game. In addition to that, Mamoswine and Sylveon are being added to the game’s roster and multiple gifts will be available to players on all available platforms.

Pokemon Cafe ReMix
Pokemon Cafe Mix is getting rebranded to Pokemon Cafe ReMix this fall and will include new puzzle elements, more Pokemon, new dress-up options, and more ways of growing and developing staff Pokemon in this updated version. Pokemon can also now eat the meals prepared for them, puzzles can be solved more easily with newly acquired skills, and megaphones can be combined to make them more powerful.
If you’ve been playing since the game launched, the good news is that golden acorns that you’ve collected will be transferred to Pokemon Cafe ReMix when it arrives.

Three Legendary Events involving Xerneas, Palkia, and Kyurem are coming back, and an upcoming event will see Pokemon Black and White’s N return in a new form on August 29.
From September 15, a new storyline featuring iconic Pokemon villains from different regions will begin, starting with Viridian gym leader and Team Rocket boss Giovanni making an appearance.

Pokemon Legends: Arceus
The latest Pokemon game from developer Game Freak appears to be a massive change of pace from everything else that the developer has done for more than two decades in the pocket monster universe. The latest trailer for the game showed a lot of the new systems at play in the ancient lands of Hisui, long before it became known as the Sinnoh region.
More aggressive Pokemon chasing you down, the ability to switch attack styles when engaging in combat, and new Pokemon variants like a demonically-possessed fish are just some of the big changes that players can expect when Pokemon Legends: Arceus launches on January 28, 2022.
