Pokemon Wind and Wave, otherwise known as Gen 10, has seen numerous leaks over the past year. So much so, in fact, that while it will be great to see it in action, it's basically Nintendo's worst-kept secret heading into Pokemon Day on February 27.

For example, it's been out there for a while that Gen 10 would be called Pokemon Wind or Wave (plus or minus pluralization depending on translation) and would be based on Southeast Asia. This is going to make it a more island-heavy region, further emphasized by the legendaries being described as "wind grandpa and wave grandma." Now, the latest leak has given fans a more concrete look at the region's layout, as well as detailing the various environments and key locations of each island.

Due to the nature of this leak, some of the possible information may be considered spoilers.

As the leak was shared by known aggregate account Centro Leaks, fans should take the image there and this info with a grain of salt, as with all leaks. Plenty could have changed in the time between this leak (derived from 2024 data), with Centro also stating that more landmarks have been added to their knowledge. That said, it's still a pretty interesting look. Because of it, fans can reasonably expect Pokemon Gen 10's Gyms to be Grass, Poison, Flying, Fighting, Dark, Normal, Steel, and Fairy. Previous leaks have indicated that Pokemon Gen 10 gyms would be mixed with Titan Pokemon, representing a total of 18 challenges. By the process of elimination, this means the Titan Pokemon of Gen 10 would be Fire, Water, Electric, Ice, Ground, Psychic, Bug, Rock, Ghost, and Dragon-type Pokemon.

Even a cursory glance at this reveals more possible details. For example, it seems likely that the Titan Pokemon are somehow involved with the "Majin Research Labs" and that there's a nice variety of islands. Some are completely dedicated to one concept, like that of the Fairy Gym and Normal Gyms, while others are much more expansive. The numbered oceans, deep seas, and the Neon Abyss are likely areas tied to Pokemon Wind and Wave's rumored procedural generation. These areas may be populated differently and change every time players visit them.

Of course, there's a lot left to be revealed, given fans have obviously not seen a new Pokemon yet, nor have they had many story leaks outside the initial encounter. Fans can expect that reveal on Pokemon Day, but based on the various Pokemon Wind and Wave leaks, it's already shaping up to be an interesting marketing season, as well as an interesting new generation of Pokemon.
