Gen 10 Leaks Reveals New Pokemon Charmander Evolution, Games, and More

Summary

  • A new Charmander evolution (Ground-type) and a battle gimmick called Gigaxis are also mentioned.
  • Rumored Gen 10 titles are Pokémon Gales and Pokémon Tides, set across 16 main islands.
  • New starters include a Fire Goat (Embaah), Water Octopus (Ocotpop), and Grass Snail (Mosshell).

Pokemon Gales and Tides – What the rumor says

While all eyes are on Pokémon Legends: Z-A releasing later this year, a fresh leak is shifting attention to the rumored Gen 10 mainline games. According to speculation sourced from 4chan and circulating widely online, the next core Pokémon games may be titled Pokémon Gales and Pokémon Tides. These titles supposedly take place across an expansive archipelago featuring 16 main islands and over 150 smaller ones.

The setting draws comparisons to Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and Pokémon Sun and Moon, with the player traveling between islands to progress the story. Leaked gameplay details suggest there won’t be traditional gyms—instead, players will complete island challenges and earn stamps to unlock new areas.

New starters and regional Charmander evolution/variant

The leaked starter Pokémon are already creating buzz:

  • Embaah – a Fire-type goat
  • Ocotpop – a Water-type octopus
  • Mosshell – a Grass-type snail

Among the most surprising reveals is a Charmander evolution, aka Ground-type regional variant of Charmander, which deviates from the franchise’s traditional fire starter evolution. The leak also mentions various new Pokémon, such as a griffin, sea hare, green snake with four eyes, hermit crab with changeable shells (including a soda can), and a black beetle.

Gigaxis battle gimmick and legendaries

The rumored new battle gimmick, called Gigaxis, lets Pokémon form temporary bonds with island guardian Pokémon across the 16 main islands. Once bonded, these Pokémon temporarily change type and appearance—and with repeated use, the transformation may become permanent. This system may serve as Gen 10’s replacement for previous mechanics like Mega Evolution or Dynamax.

Both versions of the game are said to feature the same legendary Pokémon, Thalorion, which changes form based on the version: loyal to wind in Gales, and loyal to the sea in Tides.

Conclusion

As always with Pokémon leaks, especially those from anonymous sources like 4chan, it’s best to remain skeptical. However, if any of these details are true, Pokémon Gales and Tides could be the most ambitious entries yet. With rumors of a Ground-type Charmander evolution, island-based progression, and a fresh battle gimmick in Gigaxis, Gen 10 could be a bold step forward for the franchise. For now, fans will need to wait for official announcements—likely after Pokémon Legends: Z-A launches.
