Pokémon Direct Announced for Pokémon Day

            Updated 2/27/19: Added announcement video.

            Nintendo announced that there will be a 7-minute Pokémon Direct for tomorrow, February 27 at 8am CT. With tomorrow also being Pokémon Day or the anniversary of the very first Pokémon games being released in Japan, there is a lot of speculation that Generation 8 will be revealed in full after first being mentioned at E3 in 2017.
