Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen listings appear on Nintendo eShop

Original: A listing for Pokemon FireRed and Pokemon LeafGreen have appeared on the “Coming Soon” tab of the eShop. Each game is priced at $19.99, and both are set to release on February 27, 2026.

The title is stated to support local wireless play, with Pokemon Home support being added at a later time. It should be noted that each language has its own listing. The US eShop has English, Spanish and French; The EU adds German and Italian listings; and the Japanese eShop only has the title in Japanese.

You can see the full description of FireRed from the eShop below. The LeafGreen description is identical with the title of the game swapped.
