Pokémon Presents Leak Points to February 27, 2025 Announcement

A recent leak suggests a Pokémon Presents event is scheduled for February 27, 2025, coinciding with Pokémon Day. This revelation, stemming from data mined Pokémon GO server files, fuels fan anticipation for updates on highly anticipated titles.

The leak, shared by dataminer mattyoukhana on Twitter, indicates Niantic's upload of files referencing a Pokémon Presents on February 27th. While Pokémon Day announcements are common, this leak provides the first concrete confirmation, especially welcome given the recent quiet from The Pokémon Company and Nintendo regarding game announcements.

This year is shaping up to be significant for the Pokémon franchise. The upcoming release of Pokémon Legends: Z-A and the anticipated reveal of the next mainline title are key factors driving excitement. Speculation is rife that new Pokémon games will feature prominently in the Nintendo Switch 2 launch lineup, potentially boosting the console's initial appeal. Many hope for pre-Pokémon Day news about the new Switch, given the event's popularity.

Datamine Confirms Pokémon Presents Date:

• February 27, 2025 (Pokémon Day)

While the Pokémon Presents is expected to unveil numerous exciting details, fans are particularly eager for updates on Pokémon Legends: Z-A and its 2025 release. Details remain scarce, but the game is rumored to build upon Legends: Arceus, reintroducing Mega Evolution and setting the action in Lumiose City. Given the year-long hiatus in mainline console releases, substantial information is anticipated.

This leak is one of several circulating currently. Prominent leaker Riddler Khu has also hinted at upcoming announcements, showcasing 30 Pokémon (including Reshiram, Tinkaton, and Sylveon) with the cryptic message "choose." While not necessarily indicating starter Pokémon selection, given the power level of some featured Pokémon, these 30 could hold significant importance in upcoming games. The future of the Pokémon series remains shrouded in mystery, with further discoveries from leakers and dataminers likely on the horizon.
