Here’s Everything You Need To Know About The 20th Anniversary Of Pokemon

This year marks Pokemon's 20th anniversary, and the year is filled with festivities for fans. Back in November, Nintendo announced that the original Game Boy Pokémon games are coming to the 3DS. Red, Blue, and Yellow will be available via the eShop on February 27. Also, Nintendo will be selling a New 3DS with faceplates bearing the box art for Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue and the 20th anniversary logo. The handheld will come pre-loaded with both games, and a code for a home theme will be bundled in. The New 3DS bundle will be out on February 27. The Pokemon Company will also be holding special retail giveaways later in the year. By bringing your 3DS and a copy of Pokémon X, Pokémon Y, Pokémon Omega Ruby, or Pokémon Alpha Sapphire to a GameStop location, you'll be able to get Mew, Darkrai, Arceus, and Genesect. This year will also see the release of the fighting game Pokkén Tournament on Wii U and Pokémon Go on mobile devices. The only thing that's missing from this lineup right now is a brand new game for Wii U or 3DS. How will you celebrate the 20th anniversary of Pokemon ?
