Massive Pokémon Leak Reveals Exciting New Projects
Pokémon fans, get ready for some exciting news! A recent massive data leak from Game Freak, the team behind the Pokémon RPGs, has revealed some juicy details about upcoming projects. While most of the leaks include early assets and concept art, there are some intriguing tidbits about new games and anime. Remember, take this information with a grain of salt as plans may change. Let's dive into what's coming up in the Pokémon universe!
Pokémon Legends ZA
One of the highlights from the leak is the upcoming game, Pokémon Legends ZA. While details are scarce, we know that Mega Evolutions for Zygarde and Zeraora will be included. Zygarde's inclusion makes sense given its connection to the Kalos region, where the game is set. However, Zeraora's presence is a bit of a surprise, as it doesn't have ties to Kalos.
Generation X Games
Another exciting revelation is about the next generation of Pokémon games, tentatively called Generation X. These games are being developed for the successor to the original Switch, though a version for the current console is also being considered. The setting is rumored to be an archipelago, possibly inspired by Greece. Internally, these games are referred to as Pokémon K and N.
New Multiplayer Game
Game Freak is also working on a new multiplayer game codenamed Pokémon Synapse. This title is being developed with ILCA, the studio behind Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. It's described as similar to Nintendo's Splatoon, but not an MMO.
Anime Projects
While Game Freak doesn't directly create the Pokémon anime, they play a significant role in its development. The leaks mention a new animated movie, Project Bauer, which aims to reboot the movie universe with a new protagonist. Additionally, there's an animated series called Project Reload in the works, consisting of twelve 21-minute episodes by Studio Colorido.
Live-Action Projects
Fans of live-action adaptations will be thrilled to hear about two projects in development. The first is a Netflix series, with the first season planned to be eight episodes long. The second is a sequel to the 2019 Detective Pikachu film, directed by Jordan Vogt-Roberts. However, the status of these projects remains uncertain.
While these leaks offer a glimpse into the future of Pokémon, they also include a treasure trove of old assets and concept art from past games. Some of these even feature Pokémon that never made it to the final versions. It's a fascinating look back at the franchise's history, even if some folklore seems a bit dubious.
