Massive Game Freak leak unearths Pokémon Gen 10, Switch 2 codename, and more

According to Pokémon insider CentroLeaks, Game Freak was hacked earlier today and everything from source codes for older Pokémon games to the Switch 2 codename has now been leaked onto the internet.

  • Centro claims for there to be a new Pokémon MMO under consideration, with a file labeled “mmo_test” being uncovered during the breach.
  • “CODENAME: SYNAPSE,” a battle-focused multiplayer game jointly developed by Game Freak and ILCA appears to be in the works. Leakers have said that it is a “splatoon like game.”
  • Information about the next Pokémon generation was also obtained by the hacker(s), with Gen 10 being referred to as “Gaia,” it being developed for both Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, and it having the two version names of “K and N.”
  • Switch 2 reportedly has the codename “Ounce.”
  • Source codes and beta builds for Pokémon Heart Gold / Soul Silver and Black 2 / White 2 were leaked alongside everything above.

Details on who is responsible and on the info obtained through the breach remain scarce for now.

    1. No, it was only bound to happen if hackers are involved. Non-hacker Pokémon fans can’t to that, no matter how desperate they are

      1. How is he a coward?
        Whats the code name from Gamecube to Switch?
        Dolphin, Revolution, Project Cafe.and NX all unveiled by Nintendo. Now Iwata died now all of a sudden the coward wont at least reveal the Switch 2 codename.

        Since the new CEO who replaced Iwata whats the code name to the Switch 2 that Nintendo officially released?

        When Iwata was alive, how is it the Wii only lasted 5 years already passed 100 million units yet Iwata was already talking about project cafe in 2011 when Wii was only 4 years old. The new CEO is too busy trying to get Switch to outsell the PS2.

        What information on Switch 2 been from this new CEO?

        When Iwata.was alive why did the eshope from Wii, 3DS and.Wii U have music, easy to navigate and had social media.

        New CEO.eshope is boring no.muisc.and harder to search for games.

        When Iwata.was alive Nintendo.wssnt scared.to unveil nothing before Sony or Xbox. Wii U came out before PS4 and Xbox 1. Switch came out before PS5 and Sony already has a hardware update the PS5 PRo. Where is the Switch 2? A clock?

        Shall we go on?

        1. This is Chris Chan type rant, while we shouldn’t compare people this is something the moderators have to keep their eyes on, this individual is taking this “switch 2” too personal and in the future he may be sending death threats to Nintendo employees.

          Moderators please ban or restrict this gruntilda person.

        2. You can give Mr. Furukawa some lessons of bravery by going directly to Nintendo’s HQ and complain in front of him… Oh and do that ridiculous tropical al freeze dance of yours while you’re at it.

          Show us who is the coward.

        3. How in god’s name did revealing the project name of any of those consoles effect the overall sales or reception of those consoles? I mean what do you gain here exactly? Does the console release sooner if you know it’s project name? Do you unlock some kind of achievement? Do you get a special console or exclusive game? No. You just bought the console after it released AND you’re going to buy this new one after it releases too.

    1. It’s news, it’s another hack which is serious and it’s given away the Switch 2 codename.
      Why wouldn’t the site report it !

  1. Take this “information” with a grain of salt, people…
    But hey, a 3D remaster of silver and gold, I don’t say no!

  2. Most likely Game Freak and Pokemon Company will be delaying Gen 10 by a couple of years after the hacking incident. In other words, That’s what happened when Pokemon Fans start getting too reliant on leakers. those who support leakers become criminals themselves. All the more reason why I consider leak culture as criminals dead or alive.

  3. So wait… the PC can make
    “splatoon like game”, but as soon as someone copies their game, they see red?

    Famn hypocrites.

  4. If ya want to pull me back into Pokémon, another Gold/Silver remake will do it.

    (I see the site is still suffering THAT annoying ass glitch where canceling a comment to someone still causes you to comment to them when you try to comment to the actual article. 🙄 Ugh!)
