In a livestream celebrating the release of the first Pokémon games exactly 30 years ago, the company revealed Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves, open-world games set across a vast ocean of islands.

It actually feels like forever since then Pokemon Scarlet and Purple It was released in 2022. But when that game was released, fans criticized it for feeling rushed and full of bugs. So, if a later release date means we’ll get something amazing, I’m happy to wait.
Meanwhile, Pokémon fans can purchase re-released copies of the Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen games today for Switch… but they cost $20. It’s too bad there isn’t Very easy and legally questionable How to get these games on your phone for free.
