Thanks to a recent leak, we can pretty much confirm that Pokémon Legends: Z-A will be coming out a little sooner than we expected… and it’s all Pokémon Go’s fault.
Thank you in advance to Eurogamer's Tom Phillips for the original source!
The Pokemod Group, a Twitter account dedicated to providing leaks and information regarding Pokémon Go, just revealed that a new Pokémon Presents stream is imminent.
They learned this by data mining Pokémon Go’s latest update, which specifically makes note of the "Pokémon Presents 2025 x GO Tour" in the game’s code.

Pokémon Presents are little 30-minute streams held by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company on a bi-yearly basis, and they are always chocked full of juicy stuff.
For instance, during the last Pokémon Presents they announced Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket, Pokémon UNITE, and Pokémon Legends: Z-A - all in one stream.
Basically it’s a given that the next one will have something interesting in it, because they’ve yet to to disappoint thus far.
Now as of writing, all we can really confirm is that there will be some Pokémon Go-related stuff in there… but that was kind of a given before the leak.
We will however almost definitely get some Pokémon Legends: Z-A news. It’s been almost a whole year since the game was announced and we’ve not really heard much out of it since then.
With all the Nintendo Switch 2 leaks there’s been lately though, I’d put money on us at least seeing a trailer.
Oh, and… well, the release date for Pokémon Legends: Z-A also may have just leaked too, following an accidental reveal on an Amazon listing.
Either way, there’s gonna be something good. The only real thing we have to look out for now is the announcement of the date that the Pokémon Presents will be held on (which I would assume isn’t too far off at this point).
