Centro Leaks shared rumors that Pokémon will time travel whereas the player will not, including the absence of Joltik, Milotic, Wailord, Metagross, Jynx, and Golurk from the game. However, as this information comes from hearsay, we have to take this information with a grain of salt, as there is no actual evidence shared by The Pokémon Company at this time.

Previously, Centro Leaks shared multiple details leading up to the release of Pokémon Legends: Arceus. While they have shared reliable information in the past, we do not have access to Scarlet and Violet now, and we cannot confirm whether these details are true. The last Eevee evolution to release was Sylveon in Pokémon X and Y, which was the sixth generation. If these details are true, it will be nearly a decade since another had been added to the line-up.

We’ll learn more details about if this information is accurate or not closer to the release as we receive more information from The Pokémon Company.
