Game Freak unveiled significant details about their new title, generating considerable excitement. The presentation showcased Lumiose City, a Paris-inspired location featuring stunning European architecture, charming streetscapes, and a recognizable Eiffel Tower-esque landmark. The city's blend of urban development and natural elements, including overgrown areas and moss-covered buildings, creates a unique atmosphere. A notable gameplay innovation allows trainers to move freely alongside their Pokémon on the battlefield, dodging attacks in real-time. This dynamic mechanic is supported by a redesigned interface and impressive visual effects.
