Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek’s network of contributors
After February’s Pokémon Presents gave us a lot of exciting new information on the upcoming Pokémon Legends: Z-A, we’ve got another streaming coming this week that will hopefully enlighten us to even more stuff coming for both that game and whatever might be next.
You can watch the stream on the official Pokémon YouTube channel, though beware, it’s set to go live pretty early in the US, so you’ll have to set those alarms if you don’t want to miss it. If you don’t fancy getting up for it, though, then don’t worry, as it will be available to watch as a video on the channel immediately afterwards.
When Does the Pokémon Presents Stream Start?
The official start time is Tuesday, July 22, 2025 at 6am PT. Here’s what that means for your time zone:
- 6am PT
- 8am Central
- 9am ET
- 10am BRT
- 2pm BST
- 3pm CEST
- 6:30pm IST
- 9pm CST
- 10pm JST
- 11pm AEST
- 1am NZST (July 23)
What Will Be In the Pokémon Presents?
While we don’t have official confirmation on anything, there are a few things that have been teased and we can reasonably expect to see. First of all, we know the stream is going to be an estimated 24 minutes long, which is about average for these things. No doubt it will be frontloaded with details on upcoming updates for various mobile games like Pokémon Sleep and Pokémon Cafe.
It’s also likely we’ll see the announcement of the next Pokémon TCG Pocket set, which we’ll be sure to cover as soon as we find out about it.
Over the past couple of weeks, the Pokémon social media accounts have also been teasing something strange, with Pikachu working at a DJ deck. Exactly what this could be about, we don’t know, but whether it’s some sort of Pokémon rhythm game or a music channel, we’re highly likely to find out during this stream.
Of course, the biggest headline will be more information on Pokémon Legends: Z-A, the next mainline game in the series, set to launch on Switch and Switch 2 on October 16, 2025, though we don’t know what new details will be unveiled.
As for the reveal of whatever mainline title will follow Z-A in 2026, we doubt we’ll hear about that in this stream. That said, it’s not impossible, the Pokémon Company International has revealed new games before the launch of a current one before, but we believe that if the highly-anticipated Generation 10 games or anything of that nature are going to be revealed this year, it won’t be here.
