About Pokemon Waves

Pokemon Waves is an upcoming role-playing game from the Pokemon series, scheduled to arrive on the Nintendo Switch 2 in 2027. Game Freak is developing the game, while The Pokemon Company and Nintendo are publishing it. It is designed for single-player play.

The game is listed as a Switch 2 exclusive, so that console is the only platform it is planned for. It carries a PEGI 7 rating. Because its release is listed by year only, no specific launch day has been confirmed yet.

The title was announced in February 2026, during the 30th anniversary year of the Pokemon franchise it belongs to. Further details about gameplay and story are not part of the information available here, so this description sticks to the confirmed basics.
