DeNA's Pokemon Masters Mobile Game Gets Release Window and New Gameplay Footage

After months of waiting, we finally have more concrete details on DeNA's Pokemon Masters and how the gameplay will be like. It's going to be one of the more interesting titles in the franchise since players will be forming teams of trainers and Pokemon this time around, something that has never been done before.

With visuals similar to the 3DS Pokemon games, which is a very good thing, by the way, this could be one hell of a mobile game. Pokemon Masters is currently set for a summer 2019 release, which is soon.

Set on the island of Pasio, trainers are teaming up with each other to try and be the very best for a special Pokemon League. Limited to one Pokemon per trainer, players must team up with others for epic three-on-three battles where the monsters fight while the trainers offer their support.

Fan-favorite trainers like Red, Brock, and Misty are called ‘Sync Pairs' and only have one Pokemon with them. Red has Charizard, Misty has Starmie, and Brock has Onix. There are more interesting examples, like Brandon only having a Treecko but that's not a detriment to the Ruby and Sapphire protagonist.

Here are the game's key features from the official press release of the game:

• Real-Time, Three-on-Three Battles– Players will experience the all-new thrill of commanding three Pokemon and three Trainers at the same time during a battle—while also defending against their AI opponent's team in real time.

• An All-New Location to Explore– Discover a new location in the Pokemonworld—the island of Pasio. On Pasio, the rules of battle are different, allowing for 3-on-3 sync pair team battles. Adventure across Pasio to meet new Trainers, earn badges, and enter the Pokemon Masters League tournament.

• Pokemon Trainers from Every Region– Witness Trainers from throughout the Pokemon video game series interacting together for the first time.

• Stunning Original Art– Experience beautiful character visuals and must-see battle animations.
