The original "Pokémon" came out 20 years ago and to celebrate the game's 20<sup>th anniversary, developer Game Freak and Nintendo are planning to release two installments of the series called, "Pokémon Sun" and "Pokémon Moon." The game has already been announced and it is expected to give fans a unique gaming experience with new features in the world of pocket monsters, which include new adventures, new worlds and many more.

The game will be released worldwide in many different languages such as English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean and traditional and simplified Chinese. It is expected to roll out in Fall 2016.

Rumors of the game have started several years ago. Although there was no confirmation from Nintendo, many people believe that the company has been planning for a 20<sup>th-anniversary release of "Pokémon" years ago.

Fans are hoping that "Pokémon Sun" and "Pokémon Moon" will be rolled out together with the Nintendo NX. The development of the rumored gaming console is all over the Internet these days and it is only a matter of time before the company makes an announcement with regard to its release.

However, fans will hear a lot about it in this coming Electronic Entertainment Expo or E3 2016 in June. The idea of playing the upcoming "Pokémon Sun" and "Pokémon Moon" on a VR platform, that is rumored to come with the Nintendo NX, is just too good for fans not to think about.

Meanwhile, the company has yet to provide specific details with regard to the release of "Pokémon Sun" and "Pokémon Moon," but both games already have a price tag. Each of the video games will be sold at $39.99. There will be a discounted price if both games are bought as a bundle but there is currently no details regarding that

GameStop has also started taking in pre-orders of the game. Rumor has it that the game will be released during the Holiday season of 2016.
