'Pokémon Go', 'Pokémon Z' Release Date, Trailer & Download: Gameplay to Release Simultaneously Second Half of 2016, 2016 Super Bowl Ad a teaser? [Rumors]

It's going to be a Pokemon party this year for fans of the game, which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year with a Super Bowl ad. The ad features fans' favorite Pokemon characters such as Gyarados, Magneton, Mega Lucario and Pikachu, along with the game's tagline, "Train on!"

Gospel Herald reports that the Super Bowl ad must have cost the development company some serious cash, which means that it must be somehow related to the release of "Pokémon GO" and "Pokémon Z," which the studio remains tight-lipped about.

According to Vine Report, both games are assumed to be released at the same time, with the Pokemon Company collaborating with Niantic for the augmene reality game. In addition, funding amounting to $20 million has been reportedly provided by giants Google and Nintendo.

"Pokemon Go" promises to be an exciting game for players, as it will use real life locations to search for, capture, and train Pokemon through a device called Pokemon Go Plus, which alerts the user when a Pokemon is nearby. The exciting game will also feature trade events where gamers can come together and trade Pokemons.

Meanwhile, Gamespot reports that "Pokemon GO" will be featured in developer Niantic's yet unscheduled GDC talk, which will be held during the Game Developers Conference on March 14 to 18, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California. No details have been schedule has been released yet, but Niantic CEO John Hanke is set to grace the stage at the event to talk about "Pokemon Go" and real world gaming.

"Niantic's newest game, Pokemon GO, ups the challenge of real world gaming design, taking a beloved franchise and setting its hundreds of brightly-colored monsters loose across the globe, adding a new Bluetooth wearable device created by Nintendo to the mix," the website's official summary reads.

Hanke will also be on hand to discuss "how the company has developed a unique vision for delivering a mobile Pokemon experience that gets would-be trainers into the outdoors."

Those who will attend the GDC will also get a first-hand, in-depth look at how players will interact in "Pokemon Go," and a closer look at the "collaborative approach to design and development for the game and the next evolution of augmented reality and real-world mobile gameplay experiences."

"Pokemon Go" and "Pokemon Z" are expected to be released later this year, and whether or not the Super Bowl ad is the first of many teasers for the upcoming games, is yet to be seen.
