An avidPokemon Scarlet and Violetplayer discovered that the games may be teasing a connection to the newPokemon Legends: Z-Agame, which was announced on February 27 to celebrate Pokemon Day. Next year,Pokemon Legends: Z-Awill take trainers back to Lumiose City in the Kalos region, the setting ofPokemon X and Yfor Nintendo 3DS.
Pokemon Legends: Z-Awas the final announcement for the February 27 Pokemon Presents showcase, surprising many fans with a return to Generation 6. In thisnew and ambitiousPokemon Legendsentry, an urban redevelopment plan is underway in Lumiose City. The ultimate goal of this plan is to turn the city into a place where people and Pokemon can both belong in harmony. The Pokemon Company has not shared any more details aboutPokemon Legends: Z-Ayet, but the game may be linked to a new discovery inPokemon Scarlet and Violet.
Reddit user KyleLaverre recently spotted signs inPokemon Scarlet and Violetthat use the same script found withinthePokemon Legends: Z-Areveal trailer. The script on the first sign is an identical match to the one that teases the Lumiose City redevelopment plan in the trailer, and fans believe that the plan itself may be conducted by Paldea Realty, a major real estate company in thePokemonuniverse. As a result, fans believe the Paldea Realty company will be prominently featured inPokemon Legends: Z-Aas it redevelops Lumiose City and creates new facilities.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Paldea Realty Teases a Potential Connection to Pokemon Legends: Z-A
KyleLaverre’s discovery garnered the attention of hundreds ofPokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers, and many are theorizing about the possible implications of the Paldea company’s involvement inPokemon Legends: Z-A. However, some fans point out that the script means “Urban Development Plan” inPokemon Legends: Z-Aand “Paldea Realty Flagship Building” inPokemon Scarlet and Violet, so it’s possible that the script may just be generic placeholder text. Nonetheless, a majority of the players in the Reddit thread are still leaning more into the belief that a connection between the Kalos and Paldea regions will be made inPokemon Legends: Z-Anext year. If true, the new game has an opportunity to greatly expandthe lore ofPokemon’sKalos region.
If Paldea Realty is actually involved,Generation 9 Pokemon returning inPokemon Legends: Z-Acould be possible to further solidify a connection toPokemon Scarlet and Violet. The previous game in theLegendsseries,Pokemon Legends: Arceus, features Pokemon from multiple Generations, andPokemon Legends:Z-Amay continue this trend by giving players a variety of newer and older Pokemon to collect.
