As more information comes online through a previous Game Freak hack, we now have insight into some behind-the-scenes happenings at the studio, including why Junichi Masuda is no longer directing Pokemon games.

You may recall that in 2018, Masuda indicated he was pretty much done with the role following Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu and Eevee. That has largely been the case – with Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl as exceptions.

It’s been a wild past few days for Pokemon leaks, and even more news is surfacing from the “Teraleak” – specifically about original plans for Pokemon Legends 2 before it became Z-A.

First, Game Freak was originally planning on having the game set in Johto. Something changed along the way and the final title takes place in Kalos. As of now it’s unclear why the swap happened.

If you were hoping that Pokemon Legends: Z-A would support the ability to turn off autosaves, you might be disappointed to hear that new information indicates otherwise.

Pokemon Legends: Z-A has leaked, and just about all of the information you could possibly ask for is out there right now. We’re not talking about any spoilers today, however – instead, it appears that the newest title in the Pokemon series forces players to keep auto-save on at all times. Indeed, the option to disable autosave doesn’t appear in the settings menu. That isn’t to say that the feature won’t be added via a day one patch or a future update, but at present it looks like everything you do in this game will be permanent in one way or another.

There will be new Mega Evolutions (including some which haven’t been officially revealed yet) and much of the plot has remained a mystery up to this point.

Most Pokemon games tend to have pre-order bonuses, and Pokemon Legends: Z-A is no stranger to that. Retailers are now starting to come forward with different items that it’ll have on hand, and we’ll be rounding up everything in this post.

As a reminder, Pokemon Legends: Z-A is the second “Legends” game following Arceus. This time around, we’re visiting the main setting of Pokemon X and Y, which is Lumiose City. Players can choose Chikorita, Tepig, or Totodile as their first partner Pokemon and head off on a journey in which they’ll visit all manner of sights in the streets arrayed around Prism Tower, including shops, restaurants, and places called wild zones. Mega Evolutions are also back and are introducing new transformations, including Mega Dragonite.
