Pre-Release Trailers

As we continue with how the internet evolves, trailers have been more dominant in the Pre-Release period over screenshots. As such, this section will provide a platform to see all of the videos officially released for the game in descending order, newest first. Note: Some videos may not work after a length of time due to The Pokémon Company disabling them from view. Click the thumbnail to view the trailer:
