One of its pre-release trailers was leaked there with highly-accurate details, so stranger things have happened.

It gives some clues to themes and locations of the DLC, while also calling the third Pokemon Scarlet and Violet legendary Teraskalpa.

The inclusion of release dates and release windows are far too specific, especially since Pokemon Sword and Shield's DLC reveal wasn't as specific, and Pokemon Electrum
