The reveal of a MOBA title based on the Pokémon franchise was a surprising one, to say the least, and fans were quick to express their anger at how it took The Pokémon Company a separate stream following last week’s to make it public.<\/p>\n

On June 17th, a jam-packed 15-minute broadcast showcased a new Pokémon Snap<\/a>, giving fans more details regarding the Isle of Armor DLC for Pokémon Sword & Shield, and even premiered a cute mobile app that will reward you for brushing your teeth.<\/p>\n

Naturally, when Tsunekazu Ishihara, CEO of The Pokémon Company, stated that a whole previously unannounced project would be revealed on June 24th, fans burst with excitement. What could possibly be worthy of a unique presentation when the stream was so short in the first place?<\/p>\n

Why are fans angry at Pokémon Unite?<\/h2>\n

As it turns out, Pokémon Unite was unveiled<\/a> and decidedly mixed reactions. On one hand, Tencent Games partnering with The Pokémon Company is a huge piece of business for everyone involved, but moving past that, announcing a spin-off title with such fanfare might not have been the greatest of ideas.<\/p>\n

Pokéfans immediately noted their displeasure following the stream. As of the time of writing, the stream has a total of 166,000 dislikes compared to the 76,000 likes.<\/p>\n
