Pokemon ScarletandVioletare just a few months away now, and with a November release date looming, fans are looking to get as much early information about the games as they can.Pokemon ScarletandVioletleakshave been spreading around the internet with supposed info about new regional forms for Pokemon, what the evolutions of the starters in the games will be, and plenty more. With so much information flying around online, though, not all of it can be true.
Already, some supposed leakers have been called out for sharing fake info. Oneleak claimed to show off Sprigatito’s evolutions, for example, but was later shown to be fake. Now, it turns out that yet anotherPokemon ScarletandVioletleaker has been spreading misinformation about the games. However, this time the leaker has revealed by themselves that they were posting false information about the upcoming titles, showing that their designs forPokemon ScarletandViolet’sgym leaders were nothing more than bits of fan art.

Twitter user Pokemon Pants posted recently to their account stating that this past week they had been uploading fan art on 4chan, disguising them asPokemon ScarletandVioletleaks. It doesn’t seem that these leaks gained too much traction in the Pokemon fan base, but they are still convincing pieces of fake concept art, depicting unique gym leader designs and even going into detail on the types of Pokemon that they will use when battling the player.
Pokemon Pants initially designed sevengym leaders forPokemon ScarletandViolet, and while they may have claimed themselves that these leaks are fake, their designs do match up with another leaked lot of images of the gym leaders. A blurry set of supposed in-game images ofPokemon ScarletandViolet’sgym leaders appeared online recently, also showing the game’s rival. The designs featured in that leak somewhat resemble the art of Pokemon Pants, which could imply that both leaks are indeed fake.
However, fans won’t know for sure which leaks can be fully confirmed untilPokemon ScarletandVioletlaunches, or at least fans won’t know much more about the games until anew trailer comes out forPokemon ScarletandViolet. Many fans already believe they know when this trailer could be unveiled, thanks to details being revealed aboutPokemon ScarletandVioletpre-orders being locked until mid-August. Even with a new trailer, though, there’s no guarantee the gym leaders will be revealed in full, meaning all fans can do for now is speculate as more supposed leaks flood the internet.
