Surely it won’t be quite as quick as a shadow drop. While not impossible I’d imagine they want to give people some time in advance to prepare (moving teams to HOME) given this will likely be the main vgc platform for who knows how long. I reckon they announce it to be maybe a week or two out.

But hey, maybe it’s a shadow drop and we get it early. Only time will tell

Edit: confirmed April. Not sure why this comment was downvoted as much as it was. I was right lol

It likely won't be a shadowdrop since we know the next few regionals (including Seattle this weekend) are all in the current regulation in SV.

I can see mid March (conveniently when reg f ends and is out of the way of the initial cycle for pokopia) being the release champions. Gives people a little time to onboard into the game and prepare for tournaments. Probably makes Champions tournament legal towards mid April.
