The new Pokémon drama won’t look anything like the existing games or anime — instead, it’s taking Pokémon into live-action. The upcoming TV show, which translates to Cram Adventures Into a Pocket and is more casually called Pokétsume, got a new trailer on Thursday, showing a bit of what viewers can expect.

When we first heard that Japan would make a live-action Pokemon series, we felt, “It was about time!” But then we listened more to what they had to say about what they were making, and admittedly, our eyebrows went way up.

The team behind super-popular games Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail are working on a third game that's sure to go nuclear as well — Zenless Zone Zero. This action RPG has previously only been confirmed for PC and mobile platforms, but with the above broadcast from Tokyo Game Show, it's now also been announced for consoles.

After Project Mugen's announcement trailer hit last month at Gamescom, many were quick to draw parallels between the high-flying movements of its main characters and that of Marvel's Spider-Man.
