The creators of Pokemon Odyssey announced a sequel called Pokemon Odyssey II: Heroes of Lemuria on Friday, August 22, 2025. The team shared an early teaser with images and some game details: a new kingdom (Lemuria), 250+ reimagined Pokemon (Etrian Variants), eight playable classes, special starter combos, and more. It’s still early — things can change.
What is the concept behind Pokemon Odyssey 2: Heroes of Lemuria?
- Setting: A brand-new adventure in the kingdom of Lemuria.
- Goal: Explore deep labyrinths, find treasures, and uncover mysteries hidden in the kingdom.
- Pokemon: Over 250 Pokémon from many generations, reimagined as unique Etrian Variants.
- Status: Early teaser — the game is in early development and details may change.
The big idea: classes change how you play
You pick a class at the start. That choice affects how your adventure plays out — items, rare finds, even how many shiny Pokémon you might see.
Available classes / subclasses:
- Medic
- Survivalist
- Protector
- Pugilist
- Ninja
- Gunner
- Alchemist
- Sovereign
(Teaser screenshots show a class-selection UI where you choose the subclass you’ll wield.)
Starter Pokemon & perks (what we know)
Three starter pairs were shown, each with a special perk and starting items:
- Machop & Meditite
- Overexertion — you can break rocks and move boulders without an item.
- Starting items: Black Belt & Expert Belt.
- Subclass: Pugilist
- Rowlet & Jigglypuff
- Natural Instinct — doubles the amount of items dropped by F.O.E.s, gathering points, and mining points.
- Starting items: Lucky Egg & 2 Exp. Share.
- Subclass: Survivalist
- Ralts & Elekid
- Monarch March — doubles the amount of money received at the beginning.
- Starting items: Shiny Charm & Amulet Coin.
- Subclass: Sovereign
The teaser says “This is just the beginning… more details soon!” — expect additional starters, items, and perks later.
Visuals teased
- Screenshots show Etrian-style maps and classic turn-based battle screens with reimagined Pokémon.
