If a leaker just dropped everything, everyone would just get excited and camp around the new content (what they're there for).
If it's drip fed, people have to keep paying attention to leaker, try to coddle him, interact, be on his good side in the hope of getting the next crumb of leaked content.
You have to understand, these people literally have nothing outside of having gotten a pokemon game early.
It's their one chance in years of having someone care about them, of getting to interact with others.
Everyone else is excited about the games, about them coming out, about the next thing to be revealed.
But for the leaker, that's like sand falling in the hourglass.
Once the games come out, once the last piece of content is public, the leaker's life essentially ends. They fade back into irrelvancy, nothing they say no longer holds any weight compared to the word of others more expert at the games or more informed at a deeper level than them once the playing field is levelled and everyone has access to the same info.
I actually got sad writing this, no one should have to live such a sad, crippled existence.
But I hope this gives you insight into why this "drip feed" exists, and how brutal the game's release is on these pitiable creatures.
