Mega Evolutions Set to Take Center Stage
Since Pokémon Legends: Z-A was confirmed to be set in Lumiose City, fan theories surrounding the comeback of Mega Evolutions have gained momentum—what began as hopeful speculation has solidified into a core element of the game, especially after the official confirmation that many iconic Mega Evolutions will reappear.
Looking ahead to the July 2025 Pokémon Presents, it's highly anticipated that the event will introduce either brand-new Mega Evolutions or highly requested classics that have yet to be shown. Although no official list has been shared, expectations are running high that at least one new Mega Evolution will be unveiled during the presentation—and fans are hoping for even more.
Updates for Ongoing Pokémon Games Are Expected
Beyond showcasing upcoming releases, the July 2025 Pokémon Presents is also likely to provide updates for the franchise's active live-service and mobile games—a regular feature of these digital events.
Viewers can likely anticipate fresh content or seasonal events for titles such as Pokémon TCG Pocket, Pokémon Sleep, Pokémon Café ReMix, and Pokémon GO. While a major new mainline game reveal is unlikely with Pokémon Legends: Z-A already in the spotlight, these showcases often include smaller surprises—ensuring the Pokémon universe stays vibrant and continuously evolving.
Pokémon Concierge Season 2 and Pokémon Champions Still Await Updates
With Pokémon Concierge Season 2 confirmed for a September 2025 release, fans are looking forward to a more specific launch date. The July Pokémon Presents would be an ideal platform to share news about Netflix's delightful stop-motion series—even a short preview could build excitement as the premiere approaches.
Meanwhile, Pokémon Champions has remained mostly under wraps since its initial reveal during Pokémon Day 2025. Given the early enthusiasm surrounding this upcoming title, the next presentation offers a perfect opportunity to share new details and clarify what fans can anticipate from one of the most awaited projects currently in development.
What is Pokémon Presents?
Pokémon Presents is an online presentation format used by The Pokémon Company to share news and updates across the Pokémon franchise. It debuted in June 2020, replacing in-person events and traditional press conferences as virtual announcements became more common—particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Modeled after Nintendo Direct showcases, Pokémon Presents serves as a centralized hub for major franchise announcements. These can include new game reveals, updates on current titles, mobile app launches, anime news, merchandise reveals, and celebrations for special occasions.
While the timing and length of these presentations vary, they're typically scheduled around key moments in the year—such as Pokémon Day (February 27) or major industry events like E3 or Gamescom.
