Spoiled somewhat by yesterday’s leak, Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon will launch for Nintendo 3DS systems late this year, Nintendo and Pokemon have announced.

The news came via a special Pokemon Direct broadcast, though the lack of actual footage meant the whole thing could have been announced via a Tweet.

Other exciting news is that the newly available classics Pokemon Red, Blue and Yellow, will be compatible with Pokemon Bank, thus enabling trained Pokemon to be transferred into new titles for the first time ever.
