As a part of the celebrations, The Pokémon Company usually puts out a Pokémon Presents, a short video announcing the next year of Pokémon. The announcements vary across different types of media, as they announce updates for their mobile games like Pokémon Go or new updates to their Trading Card Game, or even a new Netflix collaboration, as they did this year.
