With the reveal of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet last weekend, insight is on the side of Pokémon fans, who have scoured recent games for hints as to what the future holds for the series. Pokémon. One Reddit user may have found Gen 9 easter eggs in not one but two recent Pokémon titles.
In one Posts on RedditA user named DDD-HERO pointed out a clever hint hidden inside a hotel in Pokémon Sword and Shield:
“It’s located in the Ionia Hotel in Circhester. If you walk into the left part of the hotel (I didn’t check on the right), you’ll see that the lobby has side rooms that are obstructed in and out. If you look at the picture background, you can see that there are images of oranges and grapes featured in today’s Gen 9 reveal!”

The image above, taken by DDD-HERO, shows a background decorated with grapes and oranges. Those two fruits can be found all over the place in the Scarlet and Violet reveal trailer, including two plaques next to the doorway, each with an icon representing an orange or a bushel of grapes.
It was a great find from this webmaster who also made another possible suggestion of the Brilliant Diamond and the Shining Pearl. Seen below, there is a flower bed in Twinleaf town filled with red and purple flowers, which are now considered color pairs for Scarlet and Violet. DDD-HERO is sure to have tested the original versions of the Diamond, Pearl and Platinum, finding that the original fenced garden still exists but with flowers of a less pronounced color. I would say this is another success of a suggestion!
