Although many of us look forward to Pokémon Legends: ZA, This is not the only game in the franchise in development. As a Japan exclusive, it will be available in the summer of this year Pokémon Frienda, an arcade experience from Marvelous and Takara Tomy Arts. Thus, The first look at the gameplay of this title was recently shared.
Pokémon Frienda is an arcade game that allows you to capture pocket creatures and save them on NFC cards, and then participate in battles where up to six players can participate in three-on-three battles. The first gameplay of this installment shows us something that fans do not expect to see, since for the first time for this type of experiences, we see the protagonist move in a 3D environment.

The concept of Pokémon Frienda It is not new, since this installment is a sequel to Pokémon Mezastar, which was also developed by Marvelous and Takara Tomy Arts. And if that was not enough, These two experiences are compatible when using what the developers call Memory Cards. Let’s remember that in Japan these types of experiences are quite common, with one of the most popular arcades being Dragon Ball Heroes.
Although there is no specific release date at the moment, It is expected that Pokémon Frienda hits arcades in Japan sometime next July. In related topics, new details emerge about the Pokémon World Championships 2024. Likewise, the new Pokémon TCG expansion is now available.
Author’s Note:
This is an interesting proposal. It is something so Japanese that it will never reach our region, and it is a shame, since this concept of having physical cards to play with friends is something that sounds very interesting. I hope we at least see a version for the Switch 2 in the future.
