Returning Pokémon
Naturally, there are a lot of familiar faces returning in Winds and Waves. Here's everyone we've spotted so far, presented in National Pokédex order. We've excluded evolutions and only stuck to Pokémon we've seen, for now — that said, since Pikachu's here, it's unlikely Pichu and Raichu will be skipped.
Remember, you can click the relevant header on the following table to sort alphabetically or by type instead.

Pokémon Winds & Waves Pokédex FAQ
Image: Nintendo
Here are some frequently asked questions you might have about the Winds & Waves Pokédex.
How many Pokémon are in the Winds & Waves Pokédex?
We don't have an exact answer for that just yet.
We've only counted 25 'mon so far, but looking at the spread of returning generations, we wouldn't be surprised to see it in the region of Scarlet and Violet 's 400.
Are there any new Pokémon in Winds & Waves?
Yes! While most of the Pokémon in the reveal trailer are returning favourites, there will certainly be some new creatures to find in Wind and Waves.
The only newbies we know for now are the three starters: Browt , Pombon , and Gecqua .
What are the Pokémon Winds & Waves Legendaries?
Again, we don't know the specifics for this one just yet, but we can take an educated guess that there will likely be a Flying or Water type, depending on which version you pick up.
There has already been some speculation online regarding a particularly suspicious-shaped cloud in one segment of the reveal trailer. Could this serpentine shape possibly be hinting at another sky dragon? We'll have to wait and see.

When does Pokémon Winds & Waves come out, again?
Pokémon Winds and Waves will launch exclusively on Switch 2 at some point in 2027 .
We'll be updating this guide with more Pokémon in the future, so keep an eye out!
