Everything announced at the February 2022 Pokémon Presents

As is customary for The Pokémon Company, a special Pokémon Presents broadcast took place today, which gives fans an idea of what Pokémon video games, merch, and services are in store for the year. This happens just about every year around this time because February 27 is Pokémon Day, a.k.a. the day that the original Pokémon Red and Green Game Boy games released in Japan and started it all. The presentation is 14 minutes long and includes several announcements.
