Pokémon Presents February 2024: Every Announcement, Full Livestream

Despite its brevity, the 13-minute presentation still managed to deliver some exciting announcements, with the grand finale being the reveal of Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Let’s dive into the details of each announcement and see what the future holds for Pokémon enthusiasts.
