Pokemon Presents 2025 Date Leaked by Niantic

Pokémon Presents Announcement Leaked for February 27, 2025

A recent leak suggests a Pokémon Presents event is scheduled for February 27, 2025, coinciding with Pokémon Day. This revelation, uncovered by a Pokémon GO dataminer, has ignited anticipation among fans, particularly regarding updates on Pokémon Legends: Z-A.

The leak originated from files uploaded to the Pokémon GO server following a recent update. These files directly reference a Pokémon Presents event on February 27th, a date significant as the anniversary of the original Pokémon games' release. Given the franchise's consistent annual content releases, Pokémon Day has become a traditional platform for major announcements.

With Pokémon Legends: Z-A slated for release this year and the next mainline title anticipated, 2025 is shaping up to be a significant year for the Pokémon franchise. Speculation is rife about the new games potentially launching alongside the Nintendo Switch 2, generating excitement for the new console. Many are hoping for pre-Pokémon Day news regarding the Switch 2, given the popularity of this annual Nintendo event.

Datamined Evidence Points to February 27th

The dataminer, mattyoukhana, shared their findings on Twitter, highlighting the Niantic-uploaded files referencing the Pokémon Presents event. While Pokémon Presents on Pokémon Day is expected, this leak provides the first concrete confirmation, offering reassurance amid recent quiet periods from The Pokémon Company and Nintendo regarding game announcements.

Focus on Pokémon Legends: Z-A and Beyond

While the Pokémon Presents will likely unveil multiple exciting announcements, fans are particularly eager for updates on Pokémon Legends: Z-A and its 2025 release. Details about Legends: Z-A remain scarce, though it's known to build upon the Legends: Arceus formula, incorporating Mega Evolution and being set in Lumiose City. Given the series' recent hiatus from mainline console releases, substantial information is anticipated.

This leak isn't isolated. Another prominent leaker, Riddler Khu, has hinted at upcoming announcements, showcasing 30 Pokémon (including Reshiram, Tinkaton, and Sylveon) with the cryptic message, "choose." While not necessarily related to starter Pokémon selection due to the power level of some included Pokémon, Khu's selection may highlight their significance in the upcoming game. The future of the Pokémon franchise remains rich with possibilities, and further discoveries from leakers and dataminers are anticipated.
