Trailer has previously revealed information as well as new features and cries.

We haven't heard much from this game since 2013, but Great Detective Pikachu: The Birth of a New Duo is coming to 3DS in Japan on February 3, 2016. It features a talking, excessively Sherlockian Pikachu solving human crimes while wearing a deerstalker and magnifying glass, as any good detective should. It looks as though the human character in the game, Tim, will serve as Pikachu's sidekick, a la Watson. With any luck, this chatty new Pikachu will make it to the West as well, but there has so far been no news of a release outside of Japan.

Mega Steelix and Mega Glalie will be in the ORAS demo:





Here are some more details about the demo:

Head to Hoenn Early with the Pokémon Trainer Club! Look for a Special Demo Version code in the October Pokémon Trainer Club newsletter!

Want to play the Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Special Demo Version? Look for a special code in the October edition of the Pokémon Trainer Club newsletter. Then, use the special code in Nintendo eShop to download the Special Demo Version directly to your Nintendo 3DS or Nintendo 2DS system!

The Special Demo Version features a unique adventure where you can encounter cool Pokémon, including ones that Mega Evolve! Plus, you'll be able to bring reward items you obtained in the demo into Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire.

Aaaand Sylveon as well! :3

For all of you... Oh, and Charizard is gonna return! Or so it seems! XD

So far, the new game is only coming to Japan, but we can hope, right?

Gameplay is something a little bit like the Japanese chess-esque strategy game Shogi, or the Chinese game Go mixed with traditional Pokémon capturing and battling features. The game's AI is designed to assist the player, hence the title "Co-Master." It will be free to play, and available for iOS and Android in Japan.
