It’s Pokémon Day next week, and the celebrations are set for an exciting Pokémon Presents, and we’re hoping for big things considering it’s the franchise’s 30th Anniversary.

The Pokemon Company have already been getting a bunch of announcments seemilgy out of the way in the week ahead, including the announcment that Pokemon FireRed and Pokemon LeafGreen, the GBA remakes of the original games that started it all, are coming to the Nintedo Switch eShop next week, which leaves plenty of room for more announcements, including, hopefully, a bunch of time on the next generation of games.

The event itself is happening at either an awkward or a great time for us around the Oceanias: very late Friday or early Saturday morning. All the times for the Pokémon Presents are below.
