The Pokemon Company announced Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl in February, confirming that the long-rumoured remakes are real (to no one’s surprise) and that they’ll be releasing later this year. Since then, we’ve heard or seen nothing of the games, but it’s possible that that changes in the near future.

Insider Kelios has accurately leaked Pokemon-related information accurately on a number of occasions in the past (including the very existence of Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl), and in a recent tweet, said that there would be another new Pokemon Presents show in early June, where The Pokemon Company would be talking about the exact release date of Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, as well as the upcoming free-to-start mobile MOBA Pokemon Unite.

Of course, Pokemon Legends: Arceus was also announced in February with an early 2022 launch window, so the question is whether or not we’ll see more of that game as well. It’s possible that The Pokemon Company chooses to focus on the Sinnoh remakes for now, but we wouldn’t be surprised to see a new trailer for Legends, if this Pokemon Presents broadcast does indeed happen.

Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are in development for the Nintendo Switch, and are the first mainline Pokemon games ever to not be developed by Game Freak, with ILCA taking the reins instead.

Dw, and yep Pokémon Presents incoming early June to announce Pokémon UNITE release, BDSP release date etc.

The Pokemon Company recently aired their Pokemon Presents broadcast, which was 11 minutes of new updates an announcements for all things Pokemon– but they didn’t share everything they wanted to share in this one broadcast. They have more news to announce, and they’ll be doing that next week.

At the end of the presentation, The Pokemon Company CEO Tsunekazu Ishihara said that there is one more “big project” that he wants to share news on, but will be doing so next week, on June 24, with another Pokemon Presents broadcast.

“There is another big project we’re working on that I still want to share with you,” he said. ” You won’t have to wait long, as I plan to share more news with you next week, on June 24. So please look forward to it.”

What this new big project could be is anyone’s best guess, but it’s safe to say that it’s too soon for the next generation of Pokemon, with Sword and Shield not even a year old. Could they be announcing another expansion for it? Perhaps the next Pokemon remake? Either way, as Ishihara said, we don’t have to wait long to find out.

Meanwhile, at the recent boadcasts, New Pokemon Snap was announced for the Nintendo Switch at long last. Read more on that through here.
