Even though Legends: Z-A is set to take place in the Kalos region, that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean other regions can\u2019t pitch in to help with Lumiose City\u2019s redevelopment. After all, Paldea and Kalos are supposed neighbors in the Pok\u00e9mon universe, since the two countries they\u2019re based on (Spain and France) are also right next to each other. We also can\u2019t forget that Kalos is highly speculated to be the grayed-out area in the top right corner of the Paldean map. So, what if Paldea played a role in building Kalos\u2019 Lumiose City? One player shared an interesting finding in a March 13 post on Reddit\u2014the same symbol sequence that translated to \u201curban redevelopment plan\u201d in the Legends: Z-A trailer can also be found on a sign in front of the five Paldea Realty buildings in Scarlet and Violet. We\u2019re talking about the five obnoxiously large buildings in Levincia that sit off to the side in the East Paldea Sea. You cannot enter any of these buildings, and they have no significance in the story despite how much space they take up, but maybe they\u2019ve been serving as a reference to Legends: Z-A all along, hidden in plain sight. If you\u2019ve played The Teal Mask DLC, you might\u2019ve battled the filthy rich Glitterati couple, Billy and O\u2019Nare, who own Paldea Realty. If you interact with them enough, O\u2019Nare eventually says, \u201cIt's our duty as Glitterati to make the dreams of the common folk a reality.\u201d Coincidentally, the Z-A trailer includes a line that says, \u201cA vision of beautiful coexistence between people and Pok\u00e9mon\u2026\u201d Perhaps the Glitterati and Paldea Realty gained their success by turning that dream into reality and building Lumiose City into the bustling metropolis it is today. At the same time, we must also point out that the exact symbol sequence in the Z-A trailer and on the Paldea Realty sign is also found on other signs across the Paldea region. For example, Sure Cans, a chain store that sells sandwich ingredients, uses that same sequence on their awning. It\u2019s also seen on a random ad with a Dedenne. Still, we can\u2019t rule out this possible connection between Paldea Realty and Legends: Z-A. It feels a little suspicious to have five huge buildings in Scarlet and Violet without any purpose unless they prove to be connected to an upcoming game. And until Z-A's official release, we'll continue to see more theories and expectations pop up, including ones surrounding the potential Starters and Mega Evolutions.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Pokemon-Paldea-Realty-Buildings.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1166255"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2177"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1166255"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1166255\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1166286,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1166255\/revisions\/1166286"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1166260"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1166255"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1166255"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1166255"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1166255"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1166255"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1166255"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1166255"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
