We’re less than half a day away from some big Pokemon Sun/Moon news. Director Junichi Masuda promised information for early tomorrow, and has continued to make a big deal out of the event since then.

Masuda shared another brief update on his blog a few hours ago. In his post, he mentioned that fans should subscribe to the official Pokemon YouTube channel. One would have to assume that we’ll be getting a video (trailer) of some sort.

Regardless of what content is coming tomorrow, we’ll have it all here on the site!

Thanks to thedonrob for the tip.

Tenkai Knights: Brave Battle has been delisted on the North American 3DS eShop. It’s the second Bandai Namco-published game to have been taken down recently, following Project X Zone.

Delta Arts, the studio behind Tenkai Knights: Brave Battle, shut down at the end of last month. That could have played a role in the title’s eShop removal.
