News Pokémon Pokopia's Roots Go Back Further Than You Think
From Hoenn, with love
Pokémon Pokopia is a strange little concept. It's a life sim set in the Pokémon world where you, a humanoid Ditto, set out to rebuild a fallen civilisation with the help of your pocket monster pals. Weird, right? Where could the inspiration for that possibly have stemmed from? Uhhh, the GBA's Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire, it...

Give it a watch!
With Pokémon Day in full swing, a brand new anime short from CoMix Wave Films has been uploaded on YouTube.

That said, we...

Update: Now available in America
[Fri 31st Jan, 2025 16:45 GMT] We've seen lots of life-sized Pokémon plushies over the years — Larvesta, Lucario, Arcanine, multiple starter 'mons, and Spheal.

News Alternative Titles For Pokémon Ruby And Sapphire Reportedly Discovered

Feature How Summer Holidays And Childhood Nostalgia Revolutionised Pokémon
20 years of Ruby & Sapphire

"Big. Blue. Buddy."
A big, heavy Pokémon deserves a big ol' plushie, right? That's obviously what The Pokémon Center thought with Wailord, who has a big of a reputation among Pokemon fans for its size. Well, it's a whale, so it should be big, right? Right. So it makes sense that you can buy a 57 ¾ inch-sized Wailord plush — that's just shy of...

The reign of Pokémon continues
After last week's release of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, you might have thought that it would have been a slightly quieter one for Nintendo Life this time around - well think again!

Soapbox For A Jaded Pokémon Fan, Scarlet And Violet Is Exactly What I Need
Just when I thought I was out... They pull me back in
For many years now, I've been buying the mainline Pokémon games primarily out of some twisted sense of obligation. Back in 1999, Pokémon Red and Blue launched at the perfect time for me; I was ten at the time of its release and had already gotten a good sense of what Pokémon was all about...
