In the closing segment of Pokemon Presents in February 2026, The Pokemon Company made a major announcement. The company heralded the upcoming Generation 10 of the Pokemon franchise, introducing the world to their newest editions titled Pokemon Winds and Waves. Slated for deployment on the Nintendo Switch 2, these latest entries will be accessible by the end of 2026.

In unveiling the games, The Pokemon Company treated fans to a teaser trailer that gave gamers a glimpse of the new Pokemon adventure. Most notably, the trailer introduced the three starter Pokemon for the Generation 10 journey. Standouts included Browt, the Grass starter known as Habrow in Japanese, the Fire starter Pombon also known as Pomken in Japanese, and Water starter Gecqua or Miory in Japanese. This triumvirate of Pokemon will be available for players to commence their exciting gaming journey.

Moreover, a standalone reveal trailer for Pokemon Winds and Waves has been released to offer players a deeper look into the new gaming world. These games, under the helm of GAME FREAK Inc., are the fresh offshoots of the Pokemon RPG series. Scheduled for launch in 2027 on Nintendo Switch 2, Pokemon Winds and Waves boast an enchanting open world filled with windswept islands and a vast shimmering ocean to be explored.

As the protagonist of this gaming journey, trainers will sport distinct outfits depending on their game versions. The new adventure begins with trainers picking their first partner Pokemon – Browt, Pombon, or Gecqua – and kick-starting their thrilling journey.

Pokemon Winds and Waves are more than just a pair of games. With Portuguese now added as a selectable language for players, the games signal a significant step towards making Pokemon more accessible to global players, in line with the franchise’s longstanding mission – unifying the world through Pokemon. More details about Pokemon Winds and Waves can be acquired from the official Pokemon website.
