Pokémon Presents Leak Points to February 27, 2025 Announcement
A recent leak suggests a Pokémon Presents event is scheduled for February 27, 2025. This date coincides with Pokémon Day, fueling fan anticipation for major franchise updates. The leak, originating from Pokémon GO server data, adds weight to previous hints from prominent dataminers.
With Pokémon Legends: Z-A slated for release this year and the next mainline title on the horizon, 2025 is shaping up to be a significant year for the Pokémon franchise. Speculation is rife about the new games' potential inclusion in the Nintendo Switch 2 launch lineup, a move that could generate considerable excitement for the new console. Many fans hope for pre-Pokémon Day news regarding the Switch 2, given the popularity of this annual Nintendo event.
Dataminer mattyoukhana's Twitter post revealed the discovery of files within the updated Pokémon GO server, directly referencing a Pokémon Presents event on February 27, 2025. While Pokémon Day announcements are expected, this leak provides the first concrete confirmation, offering reassurance amidst a recent period of relative silence from The Pokémon Company and Nintendo regarding gaming announcements.
Confirmed Pokémon Presents Date:
- February 27, 2025 (Pokémon Day)
While the Pokémon Presents is anticipated to unveil numerous exciting announcements, fans eagerly await updates on Pokémon Legends: Z-A and its 2025 release. Details about Legends: Z-A remain scarce, beyond its planned iteration on the Legends: Arceus formula, the return of Mega Evolution, and its Lumiose City setting. Given the series' recent hiatus from mainline console releases, significant information is expected this year.
This leak is one of several circulating currently. Another prominent leaker, Riddler Khu, has cryptically teased upcoming announcements, showcasing a selection of 30 Pokémon (including Reshiram, Tinkaton, and Sylveon) with the single word, "choose." While not necessarily indicating starter Pokémon selection—given the power level of some included Pokémon—this cryptic clue might highlight their importance in the upcoming game. The future of the Pokémon franchise remains shrouded in mystery, with further discoveries from leakers and dataminers anticipated soon.
