A new report has surfaced that two new Pokémon Winds and Waves characters have been leaked, including a potential Gen 10 Champion and a new Gen 10 Pokémon. The characters are expected to be featured in the Pokémon Horizons Wonder Voyage anime and debut a new gen 10 Pokémon in the animated series. The leaks also reveal that a new character from the 2027 games will also feature a new Pokémon. Leakers claim that this character will have a new "Rock/Psychic" type of Pokémon, which is only one of only three Pokémon with this typing. It is unclear if this character from Pokémon Horizons will also be in the series. However, it is believed that the new character will just have a Pokémon from the Gen 10 games. The new character is also believed to be the oldest Pokémon Champion in the franchise and will have an important connection to the original box legendaries.
