- Possible cross-gen release for Pokémon games "K" and "N."
- Rumored Pokémon MMO with the codename "Synapse."

Comparisons to Past Leaks
This recent leak has been compared to the infamous "gigaleak" of 2020, which revealed a treasure trove of Nintendo's internal data. That leak included canceled games, prototypes, and development tools, marking it as one of the largest in gaming history.
The Anticipated Nintendo Switch 2
Nintendo has yet to officially announce the Switch 2, but rumors and leaks have kept fans eagerly awaiting its release. Speculation suggests a release not before April 2025. Developers are reportedly planning to launch their games on this new platform, raising hopes for ample stock to combat scalping issues.
Pokémon Legends: Z-A is expected to release in 2025, with hints that it might also be available on the Switch 2. This has led to further speculation about the console's capabilities and potential launch titles.
For now, Pokémon fans face a longer wait between major releases than usual. With no main series game this year, the mobile Pokémon trading card game stands out as the biggest release for 2024.
