Pokemon developer Game Freak was allegedly hacked and a large amount of data was leaked.

Pokemon developer Game Freak has apparently been hacked and tons of data, from source code to details of future projects, has been leaked online.

Without going into too much detail, multiple reports that have already been investigated indicate that the source code for DS titles such as Pokémon HeartGold, SoulSilver, and Black & White 2 has been released online. It was done.

It is also believed that some codenames for the 10th generation of the Pokemon series have been discovered. This new generation is called “Gaia” (with two versions, “K” and “N”), and we believe the Switch successor (codenamed “Ounce” according to this leak) is the target platform. However, testing for that may be done. The current Switch platform is similar.

Pokémon Legends: ZA is known internally as “Ikkaku” and is reportedly considered to be fully playable.

There also appears to be some evidence for a Pokemon title codenamed “Synapse.” It is rumored to be a multiplayer game, possibly in collaboration with developer ILCA. Separately, pixel art beta designs of unused Pokemon from multiple generations have started popping up on social media and elsewhere online.

Nintendo (which has hosted Pokemon games on its platform for nearly 30 years) has been involved in major leaks in the past, including the infamous “Giga Leak” where multiple projects, games, and source code were leaked. There is.
