The leak of Pokémon content comes during a time when Nintendo saw a cyber attack, according to a report from EuroGamer. Nintendo is reportedly downplaying the breach in its company servers, as mentioned in Sankei, a Japanese publication. No development or business information has been leaked from its servers. Crimson Collection, a hacking group, claims to have breached Nintendo’s servers and stolen internal data. Nintendo did not address the Game Freak leaks.
