Nintendo’s Mysterious Countdown Could Point Toward A Pokémon Wind And Waves Reveal

I feel certain beyond measure that Pokémon Wind and Waves were originally intended to be released in 2026, as part of The Pokémon Company’s 30th anniversary celebrations. It’s clearly not coming until 2027 now, but something is happening soon because TPC’s social media in Japan has been cryptically posting what’s now almost certainly a countdown that should end at around 9 a.m. on November 30, 2026.

Naturally, this pattern was first spotted and reported on by Serebii‘s Joe Merrick, probably the world’s primary source of all things Pokémon (thanks Nintendo Life), first spotting something strange was happening on October 26, and then confirming it early this morning. The antics began as early as October 18, but in a fairly impenetrable way, when Japan’s official Pokémon X channel posted a 30th anniversary Bulbasaur image and the number 1025. It also had a phrase printed below, with the latter part scribbled out, which in part read, “Pokémon and.” There wasn’t a lot anyone could do with that, given there appeared to be no connection between Bulbasaur and that number, so it mostly went ignored.

They just tweeted this with 843. On October 18th they posted this with 1025

Come October 26, TPC posted again , this time with Goodra and the number 843. Again, there’s no obvious link there, but the very smart Joe Merrick quickly spotted that the exact time between the two posts had been 182 hours. And 1025 minus 843 is 182. While very unlikely to be a coincidence, it was still only two incidents.
