The Pokemon Company Will Be One Of The 'Line-Up Highlights' At Gamescom

Maybe we'll see Legends Z-A? I'd like to see more of the TCG app

Weird. Hopefully there’s still no Pokemon games this year! I expect to hear about Legends Z-A, whether it be here or at a Pokemon Presents. I bet this’ll just be something really small like Pokemon TCG new card pack or something like that

My guess would be mobile stuff considering the TCG app launches this year but it could maybe be for a random announcement like how a Pokemon car was at Gamescom 2022.

Will Gen 1-3 games ever come out on the Switch?

Will most likely be nothing video game related, they will be there selling merchandise and maybe some Gamescom exclusive TCG cards and accessories. They will also likely promote their latest set which is due to be released a few weeks after.

I hope we'll finally get news on Legends Z-A

Although I'm still wondering what we'll see first, Legends Z-A or the Switch 2? And if Legends Z-A will come to Switch 2 as well

Could it be their so far called Project Bloom, the non-Pokemon game they announced around a year ago?
I also think we might be getting a smaller Pokemon game this year, probably a mobile game.

It's probably mobile or non-video game related. Anyone remember that arcade battler that Pokémon showed off at Marvelous's direct stream earlier this year?

A reminder that last time The Pokémon Company was at Gamescom, they announced a concept car.

Why the heck is Worse Vine a "Line Up Highlight" for the THQNordic and Enemies Expo? What do they have to do with video games?

@Tainaru If it was Project Bloom, it would be Game Freak on the lineup, not the Pokémon Company itself.

@BrazillianCara Heh, good point.

It's probably just the Pokemon Card Game and spinoff merch. That's what they did for PAX East.

@Don They can release the games on NSO and restrict sending stuff to Pokemon Home. In order to have Home compatibility, they would need to be separated apps with no save states and rewind features.

@Don Technically they did for Gen 1 with lets go pikachu and eevee

Isn't August usually when Pokemon Co shares another Pokemon Presents? This would line up very well with Gamescom! Very excited to see more Legends ZA. I'm also excited to see more of the TCG app, but I really want it ported to the Switch. At the very least I want it to launch on the Switch 2. My iPhone SE struggles to play almost any mobile game these days, and Pokemon Cafe has already demonstrated that the mobile experience works perfectly well on the Switch's large touch screen!

Not a shock. Nintendo really doesn't need to do things like this anymore. They can just do Directs and I won't be surprised if someday that's all they do. Plus the more Pokemon is pivoted as a separate but related entity the big N lessens the blows they take when another wonky coded Pokemon game comes out.
