Pokemon Legends: Z-A Trailer Sparks Fan Theories From Gen 10 to Gym Challenges
The theory that the icon might be linked to Gen 10 is interesting, but many commenters seem to disagree with this prediction. In the Pokemon series, each generation ushers in a new era, bringing fresh Pokemon, regions, features, and mechanics. Pokemon Scarlet & Violet is part of Generation 9 and is the latest mainline entry; it introduced exciting innovations like open-world exploration and three distinct story paths.
The idea of a sneak peek at Gen 10 wasn’t the only theory up for debate, with others suggesting it might be related to a Gym Challenge. These challenges are a central feature of Pokemon games, where players battle Gym Leaders in Pokemon’s vast array of cities and towns. After defeating a Gym Leader, players are awarded a badge, which is essential for progressing through the game.
So far, the developers of Pokemon Legends: Z-A have mostly kept quiet about the features that will be included in the game. However, details are beginning to surface. Recently, it was reported that Pokemon Legends: Z-A will bring back Mega Evolutions, a feature that temporarily evolves Pokemon and significantly boosts their stats. Until the game is released, many fans will continue to speculate, analyzing every clue and theory that emerges.
