Centro Leaks is a controversial source of information within the community, as it rarely was a first-hand source of leaks. Instead, Centro shared leaks from various sources, often declining to provide credit as to where they had found it. After a copy of Pokemon Scarlet was datamined by various parties on the Internet, several graphics were posted on Twitter and elsewhere with a warning for Centro not to steal them posted as a watermark. Centro did have at least one primary source, as it shared a press release distributed by The Pokemon Company regarding a Pokemon Home update early, which seemed to suggest it had a source within a localization team.
Centro also notably had a long-running feud with "Riddler Khu," who had access to a leaker tied to an early Chinese translation of the game, likely as Khu or their source was a member of the Chinese localization team. Almost all of Riddler Khu's leaks about Pokemon Scarlet and Violet were accurate, although some had some discrepancies due to translation difficulties. After Centro posted information leaked by Khu on their account, Khu shared a number of images that simultaneously teased various hints about Pokemon Scarlet and Violet while also insulting Centro.
