Two Pokémon presentations on the way, Press Conference this week, Sword & Shield Direct next
Nintendo has announced two separate Pokemon presentations. The first this week, and then one next week which is a Direct.
Firstly, the Direct will cover Pokemon Sword and Shield Direct and is on June 5th. It’s one of the earliest announcements we’ve seen for a Nintendo Direct, at least we don’t have to speculate when it’ll be.
Tune in on 5th June at 11pm AEST for roughly 15 minutes of new information on #PokemonSwordShield for #NintendoSwitch in a livestreamed #PokemonDirect presentation. https://t.co/9qc85d7Nzi pic.twitter.com/6z7b5zDnOv

It’ll run for roughly 15 minutes long and should be enough time to give us a healthy pre-E3 blowout of information.
Here’s the times for Australia for the Pokemon Direct;
- Perth – Wed, 5 Jun 2019 at 9:00 pm AWST
- Adelaide – Wed, 5 Jun 2019 at 10:30 pm ACST
- Darwin – Wed, 5 Jun 2019 at 10:30 pm ACST
- Brisbane – Wed, 5 Jun 2019 at 11:00 pm AEST
- Sydney – Wed, 5 Jun 2019 at 11:00 pm AEST
- Melbourne – Wed, 5 Jun 2019 at 11:00 pm AEST
- Canberra – Wed, 5 Jun 2019 at 11:00 pm AEST
- Hobart, Australia – Wed, 5 Jun 2019 at 11:00 pm AEST
- CEST – Wed, 5 Jun 2019 at 3:00 pm CEST
But wait, there’s more!
There’s also this week a different Pokemon presentation that they’re calling a “Pokemon Business Strategy” presentation. They’ve done this only twice before, one when Pokemon Go was announced, the other when Pokemon Let’s Go was announced – so it’s going to be something big.
The Pokemon Company says it’ll cover “multiple topics of interest to Pokemon fans”.
It’ll be live streamed here, and here’s when that’s on;
- GMT – Wed, 29 May 2019 at 1:00 am GMT
