During yesterday’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, the Pok\u00e9mon Company International revealed its 25th anniversary logo.

While we already know that a new Pok\u00e9mon Snap is coming to Switch at some point in the future<\/a>, it’s likely we’ll learn a lot more about what’s next for the Pok\u00e9mon franchise beyond that. With the series’ original Japanese launch happening on February 27, 1996, the Pok\u00e9mon Company International dubbed February 27 “Pok\u00e9mon Day” and has made a tradition of holding special events on that day.<\/p>\n

In previous years, we’ve seen Pok\u00e9mon Day announcements including Pok\u00e9mon Sun & Moon and Pok\u00e9mon Sword & Shield, special digital goodies like Snapchat filters, and releases like Pok\u00e9mon Red, Blue, & Yellow on the 3DS eShop and Mewtwo Strikes Back \u2013 Evolution <\/em>on Netflix. While the Pok\u00e9mon Company has not specified that we’ll hear more about its 25th anniversary plans on February 27, 2021, that’s a good bet for when players should expect a significant news drop. <\/p>\n

We’ve already seen how Nintendo commemorates the 35th anniversary of its flagship Super Mario franchise<\/a>, and we’ve listed what we’d like from a Zelda 35th anniversary celebration<\/a>. How do you want to see the Pok\u00e9mon Company celebrate Pok\u00e9mon’s 25th anniversary?<\/p>\n
