• Pokémon Black and White Remake? Rumors of new Pokémon game
    Jan 5 2025

    This podcast discusses a recent leak about a new Pokémon game that is reportedly in development for the Nintendo Switch 2. The source of the leak is a well-known Pokémon leaker on X, Riddler Khu, who claims that a new Pokémon game is in development that is not part of Generation 10. This means that it is not the successor to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. The leak suggests that the game is likely a remake of a previous mainline Pokémon game. The most likely candidate for a remake is Pokémon Black and White, as these games are chronologically next in the remake line after the recent remakes of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. The podcast may delve deeper into the details of the leak, the credibility of the source, and the potential release date of the game. The leaker indicates that the game will not be released in 2025, but may be released in 2026 or later. Furthermore, the podcast may speculate on the gameplay and new features the remake could include, as well as the potential impact of the Nintendo Switch 2 on the Pokémon franchise. It is important to emphasize that this information is based on rumors and speculation. Nintendo and Game Freak have not yet confirmed the rumors. The podcast should advise listeners to take this information with a grain of salt.
