Niantic Reveals Surprise Pokemon Presents Date

A leaked Pokemon GO server file reveals a Pokemon Presents event scheduled for February 27th, 2025 – Pokemon Day. This date coincides with the original games' release and the established tradition of yearly Pokemon Day announcements.

The anticipation is high, particularly surrounding updates for the upcoming Pokemon Legends: Z-A, slated for a 2025 release. Details remain scarce, but the game is expected to build upon Legends: Arceus, reintroducing Mega Evolution and potentially setting the stage in Lumiose City. Given the year-long hiatus in mainline console releases, fans expect substantial information this year.

This leak isn't isolated. Prominent leaker Riddler Khu has also hinted at upcoming announcements, cryptically showcasing 30 Pokemon (including Reshiram, Tinkaton, and Sylveon) with the single word, "choose." While not necessarily a starter selection, the inclusion of powerful Pokemon suggests their significance in the upcoming title.

The upcoming Pokemon Presents on February 27th, 2025, promises exciting reveals for the franchise, potentially including details on the next mainline game and its possible inclusion in the Nintendo Switch 2 launch lineup. The quiet period from The Pokemon Company and Nintendo has only heightened the excitement surrounding this announcement.

The information currently available is based on leaks and datamining; therefore, official confirmation is still pending. Further leaks and datamined information are expected in the coming months.
