A new leak from Pokemon Legends: Z-A suggests that the highly-anticipated follow-up to Pokemon Legends: Arceus will not be introducing any new species of Pokemon to the franchise. The next entry in the beloved monster-catching series has already seen plenty of details revealed by Game Freak and The Pokemon Company surrounding this year's "Pokemon Day" celebration. A new trailer gave fans their first look at the re-imagined Lumiose City, while also showing off a brand-new Pokemon battle system and teasing plenty of returning favorites. However, one popular aspect of Legends: Arceus will reportedly not be making an appearance.

The first game in the Pokemon Legends subseries brought plenty of major changes from the franchise's main games, with Arceus bringing lots of new ideas to the table. Pokemon Legends: Arceus features a markedly different battle system from other main-series games, introducing both "Agile" and "Strong" attacks with a revamped turn order. Legends: Arceus also followed previous Pokemon games with an array of "regional variants," including new forms of the final evolutions of its three starter Pokemon. Now, a new leak is suggesting that Pokemon Legends: Z-A may not be seeing any new Pokemon companions....
