Summary
Based on a comment by a reputable leaker, somePokemonfans are thinking that the Generation 10 games will be set in a region inspired by Italy. The Generation 10Pokemongames have not been officially announced at the time of this writing, and at this rate, it’s unlikely that franchise fans will learn of the games for quite some time.
Right now, thePokemonfranchise is busy with other projects.Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocketis releasing at the end of this month, and next year,Pokemon Legends: Z-Awill be hitting store shelves. Generation 10Pokemongames are an inevitability, but it remains to be seen exactly when they will be released to the masses.
It’s still unclear when Game Freak and Nintendo will announce theGeneration 10Pokemongames, but in the meantime, an interesting detail about them has seemingly leaked. ReputablePokemonleaker Riddler Khu took to Twitter to tease a newPokemonproject by using the “prayer” emoji. Fans have connected the dots, believing the prayer emoji to be a reference to Vatican City. The assumption is that the leaker is teasing Italy as the inspiration for the Generation 10Pokemonregion, but it’s also possible that the “new project” being referred to is something else, and so fans should keep that in mind.
Leaker May Be Hinting at Generation 10 Pokemon Games Set in Italy
This is far from the first hint that the Generation 10Pokemongames will be set in a region based on Italy. In fact,Pokemon Scarlet and Violetthemselves seemingly teased Italy as the regionfor the next games by featuring a painting showing a “beautiful town in a different region” that looked like Italy. Other theories have suggested that the painting actually depicts Greece or Mexico. The painting could also mean nothing, but Game Freak is known to hide hints about futurePokemongames in its titles.
Unfortunately,Pokemonfans are unlikely to get definitive answers about the Generation 10Pokemonregion for a while. Thenext majorPokemongame isPokemon Legends: Z-A, and it’s not releasing until 2025. Considering this, it’s quite possible that the Generation 10Pokemonreveal won’t be until 2025 either, or maybe even 2026.
In the meantime, this isn’t the only tease Riddler Khu has shared with thePokemoncommunity recently. The leaker also suggested thatPokemon Legends: Z-Anews would be coming soon, but that has yet to actually happen at the time of this writing.Pokemonfans should keep an eye out for more info onLegends: Z-Aand the Generation 10Pokemongames, though the wait for the latter will likely be a long one.
