Ever since Pok\u00e9mon releases have started to get closer and closer together, we’ve started to see more 8in-game references to the next game in the series long before it gets announced.<\/p>\n

In Pok\u00e9mon X and Y<\/a>, there was a “Strange Souvenir<\/a>” that hinted at a future location \u2014 which would turn out to be Sun and Moon<\/a>‘s Alola. In Sword and Shield<\/a>, many people speculated that the wallpaper in Hotel Ionia<\/a>, emblazoned with oranges and grapes, was a subtle hint at the orange\/grape theming of Scarlet and Violet. Likewise, the Diamond and Pearl<\/a> remakes at the end of 2021 had some scarlet and violet flowers<\/a> that seemed a little<\/em> too purposeful to be an accident.<\/p>\n

So it stands to reason that Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet<\/a> may well contain a hint towards the next region \u2014 and players are donning their Sherlock deerstalkers, trying to find it.<\/p>\n

The predominant theory right now is that this poster in the art classroom depicts Uluru as a hint towards Australia and potentially other parts of Oceania:<\/p>\n

Not convinced? Yeah, neither were we. But look! We straightened out the picture and compared it with the real<\/em> Uluru for you:<\/p>\n
