FAQ

• “Do all regions unlock at once?” NA flips based on 12:00 AM ET, which equals 9 PM PT, etc. Other regions could unlock around local midnight unless their eShop lists a specific time.

• “Physical vs digital?” Digital unlocks at the times listed; physical plays as soon as you have the cartridge and any day-one update is applied.

• “Can changing eShop region make it earlier?” It can involve account/payment complications; we don’t recommend it. We’ll update if official regional specifics appear.

• Official release date: Pokémon site (Oct 16, 2025).

The game has already leaked and there is a chance that the times could change for some areas. That being said, this is when you should expect to be able to play the next Pokemon game.
