Recently, some lucky Pokemon fans got to experience a Switch 2 demo for Pokemon Legends: Z-A at the 2025 World Championships. This alone has given us more insight into what to expect from the new Pokemon game when it arrives this October. But now, it looks like The Pokemon Company is gearing up to share something new with fans. Thanks to a cryptic new teaser, we now have details about a new Pokemon Legends: Z-A video premiere. But what, exactly, that video will be remains shrouded in mystery.

On August 19th, the official Pokemon account on X shared a cryptic teaser. The post features an image of a nighttime scene with a hand grabbing a chain-link fence. It has a vague message, saying that there will be a YouTube Premiere on August 21st at 9 AM EDT, with the note “viewer discretion advised.” This is a bit of an eerie tone for Pokemon, which often trends more lighthearted on social media. It also doesn’t give much away about what to expect from the video. But the teaser does appear to have something to do with Pokemon Legends Z-A, as it uses the game’s hashtag.
The still doesn’t quite look like anything we’ve seen from Pokemon Legends: Z-A so far. However, we do know that the game will feature a night/day cycle and will take place during an urban redevelopment project with plenty of areas fenced off. So, it certainly fits what we know of the game and implies we’re about to learn something more when this mysterious video premieres.
Fans Hope Eerie Legends Z-A Trailer Confirms Return of Ghost Girl
Usually, Pokemon fans are full of theories for what we’re about to see. But this latest teaser is both cryptic and spooky enough to have fans feeling stumped. Most early reactions to the trailer are a mix of confusion and excitement, with fans very much interested in what this teaser is all about. “Pokemon horror arc…?” asks one fan, while many others are simply posting gifs of Pokemon ready for battle to share their excitement for this video premiere.
Most likely, the premiere will showcase new footage from Pokemon Legends: Z-A. With the first big demo out of the way, it makes sense that Pokemon is ready to show a little more of the game to the public. But the tone certainly suggests that Lumiose City might get a bit spookier at night than we previously thought.
Some fans are even hoping this might be a teaser for the return of Pokemon’s mysterious ghost girl, a terrifying NPC who has haunted us for years. After all, one of the ghost girl’s most terrifying appearances takes place in Lumiose City in Pokemon X and Y. So, her return isn’t entirely out of the question in this game set in the same city.
For now, the contents of this new video premiere from Pokemon remain shrouded in mystery. We will need to tune in to watch the new video on the official Pokemon YouTube channel on August 21st at 9 AM EDT to find out what’s really going on.
