So there had been a lot of various rumors and things piling up that the Switch Pokemon game would feature a return to Kanto, and that it would be not quite a remake. Now Emily Rogers, who admittedly does not have a perfect track record, has said that the games (out this year) will have a naming theme that will raise some eyebrows and could be taking some inspiration from Pokemon Go. And then a logo with the title Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu popped up (well apparently it first popped up on April 1st).

Some time ago there was also an alleged leaked screenshot of the game showing a trainer riding a Lapras, and it looks like there's an Eevee sitting on the trainer's head.

It's basically a 1:1 recreation of Route 21.

Even Serebii is mentioning this rumor on his site, and he very rarely posts that kind of stuff.

There's various other things that could line up with it too if it's real, like most notably some guy on Twitter who'd been claiming he knew what the games were and made a bunch of drawings with what he kept trying to reiterate had hints for the new games in them. Two of the drawings show a trainer catching a Pikachu or an Eevee with the Pokemon logo overhead like they're the boxart, another was a short comic strip that ends with the words "let's go". Plus other random things that could be teases or could very easily just be people looking too hard into things like Masuda recently tweeting a picture of a Pikachu in a Luigi costume (let's a go!) with smaller Pikachu and Eevee plushes in front of it or another pic of a display stand with a bunch of Pikachu and Eevee plushes.
