Despite the lack of Pokemon game releases in 2024, numerous fans argue that this is actually beneficial – particularly in regards to Pokemon Legends Z-A.
Despite the unusual request for more time without any new games to play, it is not surprising. Recent Pokemon releases, such as Scarlet & Violet, have received backlash for feeling incomplete or rushed, causing concern that Z-A could suffer from similar issues.
The subject was brought up in an online fan discussion, which was initiated by a Pokemon enthusiast who shared a meme about the community’s anticipation for the delays in Legends Z-A. This sparked a heated argument about the game, with some fans eagerly awaiting its release and others wishing for it to be delayed as much as possible.

A Pokemon player expressed, “I hope that Z-A will be the only game released next year, and ideally, it won’t come out until at least 2025 to ensure that 2024 is truly a gap year without any uncertainty.”
Some others shared the same sentiment, although there were some who were uncertain that Z-A would be the sole release in 2025. One fan even commented, “I personally wish there was more spacing between recent generations being released, as many of them could have been better executed upon their initial release. But of course, it all comes down to profit.”
Despite the stigma surrounding it, the concept of hoping for game delays was met with amusement by numerous Pokemon enthusiasts. In a jesting manner, a particular fan remarked, “It’s a sign of true dedication as a fan when you actually want a game to be postponed. Game Freak should ease up and focus on perfecting it – after all, the games are bound to be popular regardless. Why not take the time to refine it?”
The individuals also talked about how TOTK compares to other games. One person brought up Silksong, a game known for its notoriety, while another Nintendo fan commented, “TOTK was delayed twice, possibly to allow for a full year of playtesting. Just something to consider.”
Regardless of whether you prefer a quicker release schedule or a delayed reveal of Pokemon Legends Z-A, it is difficult to ignore the overwhelming excitement surrounding the upcoming Legends game. Many players are revisiting Pokemon Legends Arceus to pass the time until the next release.
