While many of you may have given up on Pokemon Go, Niantic has continuously brought update after update out to expand the content of the game. After introducing mythical Pokemon Mew with the research update, it looks like Gold and Silver's ...

In the upcoming Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eeevee!, you'll see wild Pokémon roaming around the map instead of hidden away in random encounters. I hadn't really thought about it until now, but this approach has i...

Ken Sugimori is legendary at this point. He's been working on the Pokemon series as art director since the first generation, and he knows a thing or two about what makes some of their pocket monster designs timeless. His winning formula acc...

I'm still somewhat on the fence about the two Pokémon: Let's Go games for Nintendo Switch, but something tells me that I'll end up impulse buying one of 'em in November once they're out and people begin flooding my Twitter feed with ...

Decades after its debut at Space World 1997, a playable demo version of Pokémon Gold and Silver has surfaced online, and it's a veritable treasure trove of unfinished or otherwise unused content. The most intriguing finds have got to...

Recently, we witnessed a slew of new Pokémon game reveals, ranging from the rumored Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee, to even a confirmation of a new “core game” releasing later in 2019. However, it was the first...

Rumors about the next Pokémon games have been spreading like wildfire these past couple weeks, with supposed leaks and trademarks leading fans to believe that two Pokémon Yellow remakes -- one branded Let's Go! Pikachu, the ot...

This week, Japanese children's TV show Oha Suta will reveal new Pokemon-related news, so momentous, that it will shock the world, according to the show's synopsis."Worldwide shock!" begins the description. "We have obtained shocking informa...

The early story of Pokemon is fairly well guarded. Although the original team might come out of the woodwork every so often and give us a nugget or two the initial designs for the first 151 can be somewhat of a mystery. But the curtain is b...

When Pokemon rumors are flying around, the whole internet gets involved. The latest buzz is around two big names -- Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee. According to Pokemon super-site Serebii.net, a logo for the former has been c...

In four days you can grab yourself a shiny (well, we can't really use that turn of phrase freely in Pokemon as it means something completely different) new legendary Raikou or Entei if you're a 3DS Pokemon player. The distribution even...

The new Pokemon is as exciting as hell. We're finally getting a fully-fledged console Pokemon that isn't an arena-style variant, and if the Switch really takes off and spawns a Switch 2.0 or a future Switch 2, consoles could be th...

For a few months now, Pokemon Go has been rumored to be getting an objective based "quest" mode that would task players with daily goals to unlock things. Turns out that plan is true and is launching a lot sooner than people expected. Start...

If you're one to keep up with legendary Pokémon giveaways, this is going to be a heck of a year. There's something new every month up through November. Next month, we're getting Regigigas and Heatran. It's still February, so why bri...

Nintendo and the Pokemon Company are starting off the 2018 "Legendary Distribution event" today with Dialga and Palkia. Just like the original anniversary celebration each month will see a new legendary, but this time they're doing it in pa...

Pokémon Go is set to receive some more creatures today, according to a new post from Niantic. While the blog is incredibly light on details, we at least know there are 23 new monsters up for grabs. Polygon has confirmed around half o...

Because of that Pokémon anniversary event last year, I always had a reason to check in and pick up another free legendary. It was a pretty cool feeling and a neat way of keeping the game relevant even for casual players, and it ...

Nintendo and Game Freak are doing a great thing bringing classic Pokemon games into the fray on modern platforms. I've had many conversations with people who want to get into them but lack retro hardware, and now everyone can enjoy a p...

That's right, get ready to hit some gnarly waves and do some sick tricks bruv, because the latest Global Mission in Pokemon Ultra Sun and Moon will involve reaching 1,000,000 Beach Points (BP) in Mantine surfing! Players will have until Dec...

Pokémon and I have a tenuous relationship. I never owned an original Game Boy, so when the series exploded around the world the first time I didn’t have a means of playing it. On the Game Boy Advance, I pre-ordered Sapphire and...

For a good while Pokemon Sun & Moon players failed Global Missions. And I mean disastrously failed, to the point where many of us wondered if Game Freak was going to retire the feature altogether. I'm curious if that same question is go...

The more I think about Pokemon Sun & Moon, the more I realize it might be my favorite generation. That's a contentious statement I know, given how many people found their faults in it (which is the same with any given generation, e...

Mimikyu has got to be one of the better Pokémon in recent memory. It just looks so defenseless, like a discarded, unloved Pikachu knock-off. But there's something sinister underneath its ragged exterior. Per its Pokédex entrie...

We didn't do so hot with global missions in Pokémon Sun and Moon (at least not early on) but maybe things will turn out better with Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. That's right -- the shared objectives are back, and they're once again aski...

Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon have more surprises up their sleeves. For the completionists out there, you'll be able to stock up on legendary Pokémon. They're all here. Granted, they'll be divvied up between the two games, ...
