A recent datamine from the Pokémon GO servers suggests that the next Pokémon Presents is set for February 27, 2025—a date celebrated as Pokémon Day, marking the anniversary of the original Pokémon games’ release. Fans are abuzz with speculation about potential announcements, especially as the Pokémon series prepares for a big year with the anticipated Pokémon Legends: Z-A and whispers of integration with the Nintendo Switch 2 lineup.
The Pokémon series has always reserved Pokémon Day for exciting announcements, and this year seems no different. Alongside the reveal of the Pokémon Presents date, fans eagerly await updates on Pokémon Legends: Z-A, set to launch later in 2025.
Details about Legends: Z-A remain scarce, but rumors indicate it will expand on the popular mechanics from Legends: Arceus, reintroducing Mega Evolution and featuring a storyline centered around Lumiose City. With the absence of a mainline Pokémon release in 2024, expectations are higher than ever for significant reveals during the presentation.
The datamine was shared by Twitter user @mattyoukhana, who discovered references to Pokémon Presents in recent updates to the Pokémon GO servers. While this aligns with The Pokémon Company’s pattern of hosting Pokémon Day events, this leak serves as the first solid confirmation of plans for 2025.
Adding to the excitement, prominent leaker Riddler Khu has hinted at additional announcements, cryptically showcasing an array of 30 Pokémon, including Reshiram, Tinkaton, and Sylveon. Although fans are unsure of the significance, many believe these Pokémon may play critical roles in Legends: Z-A or other upcoming games.
Pokémon Presents 2025 could be a pivotal moment for the series, with fans anticipating reveals not only for Pokémon Legends: Z-A but also for the potential integration of Pokémon games into the Nintendo Switch 2 ecosystem. With plenty of leaks and speculation swirling, Pokémon Day is shaping up to be a landmark occasion for gamers and trainers alike.
