New information suggests the next generation of Pokémon games, Generation 11, could be released in 2030. While that’s still a ways off, fans have reason to be excited, as the same leaks also share details about Generation 10, which will be available sooner.
A recent leak has revealed some exciting details about the future of the *Pokémon* franchise. The leak suggests the next generation of games, Generation 10, will be called *Pokémon Winds and Waves*. These games are rumored to take place in a region inspired by Southeast Asia and Indonesia, with a central theme of “infinity.” According to the leak, the games will also be exclusive to the upcoming Switch 2 console.
Gen 11 Pokemon Games Could Be Out in 2030
Recent leaks suggest that the next generation of *Pokemon* games (Generation 11) won’t be released until 2030, assuming Nintendo stays on schedule. This timeline makes sense when you look at how long it takes to develop *Pokemon* games. *Pokemon Sword and Shield* (Generation 8) came out in 2019, and *Scarlet and Violet* (Generation 9) were released in late 2022. If development continues at a similar pace, we can expect Generation 10 around 2026, with Generation 11 following four years later.
Don’t worry about waiting a long time for the next generation of *Pokémon* games! Generation 10 seems to be coming very soon. Leaks suggest *Pokémon Wind and Waves* will be officially announced on Pokémon Day in February 2026, with a release expected later that year, or potentially by 2027.
Leaks suggest the upcoming Generation 10 *Pokemon* games might have a nearly endless number of islands to explore. Beyond that, the base *Pokemon* could have countless different variations when they evolve, potentially changing the series in a big way. While it’s unclear how much of the game world will be randomly generated, and these reports should be treated with caution, the possibilities sound exciting.
While fans wait for the next generation of Pokémon games (Gen 10 and 11), there are still plenty to enjoy. Pokémon Legends: Z-A is coming out on October 16th and will take place in Lumiose City, in the Kalos region, bringing back Mega Evolutions. This game will be different from the traditional Pokémon series, as it will feature battles that happen in real-time.
