The Pokémon Firm isn’t any stranger to somewhat over-hyping every so often, however its newest bit of promoting has us severely pondering that there’s a huge announcement within the pipeline.
You see, TPC is counting all the way down to… one thing. As dropped at our consideration by Serebii’s Joe Merrick, the corporate has been sharing photographs on social media of its thirtieth anniversary icons, with a quantity beneath. Apparently, these numbers lower by the variety of hours which have handed between every put up — 1,025 on 18th October, 843 on twenty sixth, 676 in the present day.
Retaining the countdown going, because of this we’ll hit zero on thirtieth November at 2pm UTC (thanks for doing the maths there, Joe!). The newest put up even got here with a full message below the brand, roughly translating to “Proceed with Pokémon”.
Hmm. The large query is, what’s this all about? 2pm UTC certain appears like the precise time for a huge announcement (it is when most eyes, worldwide, can be on it), and we won’t think about that TPC would put this a lot planning into one thing inconsequential.
What’s it, then? Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire have been rumoured to be coming to NSO final month, may it’s that? Is it time we bought one other have a look at Winds and Waves, maybe with a fireplace launch date connected? Is there one other full Pokémon Presents across the nook? Solely time will inform, nevertheless it certain is an thrilling prospect.
We’ll be keeping track of the countdown all through November and can let you recognize when any main information comes out of it.
