This ninth generation of Pokémon games will include new features like four-player co-op. It also adds new Pokémon and characters — including the handsome pair of professors, Sada and Turo. You can see all of this in the new trailer above.

These games are also promising a less linear experience than previous Pokémon titles, touting “a world you’re free to explore at your leisure — not in an order dictated by the story.”

Pokémon games are always massive sellers. Positioning Scarlet and Violet during the holiday season should help give the Switch a boost at the end of the year.
