Trainers,
the Pokémon Company has announced that a Pokémon Direct will be hosted tomorrow on Nintendo’s website, Nintendo’s Youtube and Twitch channels. Pokémon Direct is a short (8 minutes long) online video presentation of upcoming news and releases of Pokémon games and wider franchise materials.
Although no confirmation was given by TPC, it’s expected that this Direct will feature information about the upcoming mobile game PokéLand, a third game in the Sun and Moon series, Pokémon Stars and, possibly, Pokémon GO summer events.
The post at the official Pokémon website is titled “Big Pokémon News on The Way”, inciting even more excitement for tomorrow’s direct. Serebii’s Joe Merrick tweeted the following:
So hard to guess what's going to come next with Pokémon. We have the Stars rumour, myriad of Sinnoh Pokémon promotions and random RG tweets.

Interestingly, the official Japanese Pokémon Twitter account has been sharing a number of Red and Green related tweets recently, adding more confusion in the mix.
