Revealed at the Pokemon Presents presentation

We got more info onPokemon Legendstoday duringthe “Presents” stream, and it’s looking more exciting than….the last several generations of the series.

The self-described fusion of “action and RPG”will take place in the Hisui region (which will become Sinnoh). We got a beautiful new look at thePokemon Legendsregional map during the presentation, capped off by Mt. Coronet as the focal point.

Pokemon Legends

Your job is to serve as a “Survey Corp” member, to observe Pokemon. It takes aMonster Hunterapproach, with players camping out before a mission and messing about with food. If you take too much damage you can actually black out as a trainer, but you can also catch them in real-time with a Pokeball. Some creatures will run away, so you need to use stealth. Others will be more aggressive and confront you head-on.

Or, you may opt to battle with your own creatures inPokemon Legends, which swaps to the RPG side of the coin. Now there’s “strong and agile style,” with increased power and lower speed for the former: with decreased power and increased speed for the latter.
