Seven new gen 10 Pokemon have surfaced online ahead of the 2027 launch of Pokemon Winds and Waves, courtesy of a cryptic image shared by Centro Leaks, one of the more reliable accounts in the Pokemon leak circuit.
The image doesn't show the new creatures in full detail, but Centro Leaks claims the info comes from a source named Billy, a figure with a track record in Pokemon leaks. That combination of source and leaker gives this one a bit more credibility than your average pre-launch rumor.

What Pokemon Winds and Waves actually is
Pokemon Winds and Waves is the gen 10 entry in the mainline Pokemon series, set in a brand-new tropical region surrounded by a vast ocean. The game is scheduled to launch in 2027, which also happens to land during the franchise's 30th anniversary window. Game Freak has been quiet on official details, but leaks have been filling the gaps steadily.
The confirmed starter typings for Browt, Pombon, and Gequa leaked earlier, and the box legendaries were teased online before this latest batch of seven new monsters appeared. Here's the thing: the pace of credible leaks picking up this early suggests the game is further along in development than most fans expected.
Seven silhouettes and what they tell us
Centro Leaks shared a cryptic image rather than clean renders or full artwork, so the specific designs of these seven new Pokemon remain unclear. What the leak does confirm is that seven distinct new creatures exist in the game's data or design pipeline, adding to the growing picture of what gen 10's Pokedex will look like.
The leak doesn't specify types, evolution stages, or regional roles for any of the seven. That ambiguity is frustrating, but it's also pretty standard for early-stage Pokemon leaks. Full design details tend to come closer to reveal season, which for a 2027 game probably means late 2026 at the earliest.
How this fits into the bigger leak picture
This isn't the first time the Pokemon community has pieced together a game's roster before launch through accumulated leaks. By the time Scarlet and Violet launched, fans had a solid idea of the new Pokemon lineup months in advance. Winds and Waves appears to be following a similar pattern, with multiple leakers contributing pieces of the same puzzle.
For players already deep in Pokemon Pokopia while waiting for gen 10, the Winds and Waves leaks are a solid reason to stay engaged with the franchise. If you're still working through Pokopia's content, the water wheel puzzle guide and the Mysterious Slates guide for unlocking Mew are worth bookmarking.
The key here is that each new Winds and Waves leak builds on the last. The starters, the legendaries, and now seven additional new monsters all point to a game with a substantial new Pokedex rather than a smaller, curated regional approach. Whether that translates to a full 100-plus new Pokemon or a more modest number remains to be seen from official channels.
What comes next
Game Freak has not responded to any of the leaks circulating around Winds and Waves. An official reveal or trailer would be the next major milestone, and given the 2027 release window, a proper announcement campaign could realistically begin before the end of 2026.
For now, the leak ecosystem is doing the heavy lifting. Keep an eye on Centro Leaks and the broader Pokemon community for updates as more details emerge. In the meantime, check out our Pokemon gaming guides to stay sharp while the wait continues.
