Particularly interesting is the fact there are five new games scheduled for release. It is unknown whether this takes ''Pokémon Trozei'' into account, which will have been available for five months by the end of the Championships. If not, the five games in question must be ''Pokémon Dungeon of Mystery Red and Blue'', ''Ranger'', as well as ''Pokémon Diamond and Pearl''. However, out of these only Ranger has been confirmed in the context of a stateside release. There is growing concern that the Dungeon of Mystery games may remain limited to Japan like their predecessors, and at the same time, Diamond and Pearl may very well not be released in the | Particularly interesting is the fact there are five new games scheduled for release.

There is growing concern that the Dungeon of Mystery games may remain limited to Japan like their predecessors, and at the same time, Diamond and Pearl may very well not be released in the United States until after the year has passed. This gives way to the possibility that Trozei will be included in the list after all, followed by Ranger and either Dungeon of Mystery or Diamond and Pearl, but with a yet unannounced game. | ||
