Pokémon Presents reveals Mega Dragonite, Shiny Treasures of Ruin event, and more

People who were eagerly awaiting the July 2025 Pokémon Presents may have felt underwhelmed by the event’s announcements, as the show turned out to be rather uneventful compared to expectations.

The Pokémon Company has made available a free puzzle game for mobile devices, but it seems the Switch version of this game is filled with additional purchases. The anticipated Pokémon TCG Pocket game was not released, while Pokémon GO officially announced that Eternatus will make its debut at the upcoming GO Fest event.

Over the summer, Scarlet & Violet are set to host a couple of exciting events, including Tera Raids featuring the Shiny Treasures of Ruin prizes and some Mass Outbreaks. The most significant unveiling comes from the latest trailer for Pokémon Legends: Z-A, which showcases Mega Dragonite. Additionally, it has been confirmed that a Nintendo Switch 2 bundle will be available alongside Z-A.

Find a round-up with all announcements from July 2025’s Pokémon Presents below.
