Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet, the newest entries in the long-running RPG franchise, will launch in late 2022. During the February 27, 2022 Pokemon Presents stream, The Pokemon Company revealed the new games, including images of starters and looks at a lot of environments.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, developed by Game Freak, are set in a new region. The reveal trailer, which started with a security guard investigating a break-in at the Game Freak offices, showed off a number of returning Pokemon as well as illustrations of the three new starter choices.

The new Scarlet and Violet starters are a grass cat, a fire crocodile and a water duck. Returning Pokemon confirmed during the trailer include fan favorites like Meowth, Pikachu, and Lucario, among many others. The Pokemon Company describes the new entry as "an open-world adventure," following Sword and Shield's experiments with Wild Areas and Pokemon Legends Arceus' continued work on the idea.
