Pokémon™ Legends: Z-A – Nintendo Switch™ 2 Edition features improved performance, enhanced resolution, and smoother frame rates—meaning Lumiose City is now more vibrant than ever!
Whether you’re a die-hard Pokémon fan or about to toss your first Poké Ball, the Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Nintendo Switch 2 game has plenty to offer for Trainers of all types. Experience classic gameplay with modern twists that are sure to revolutionize your Pokémon RPG experience.
Expand your adventure in Lumiose City with DLC. Mysterious distortions have appeared without warning in Lumiose City. They seem to connect to a space known as Hyperspace Lumiose...and the mythical Pokémon Hoopa might have some part to play. It looks like your story with Team MZ isn’t over yet—continue your journey in Hyperspace Lumiose after completing the main game!
Full version of game required to use DLC. Sold separately.
Step onto the battlefield and command your Pokémon directly—there are no turns! For the first time in the Pokémon RPG series, Trainers and their Pokémon can both move around in real-time battles, and your Pokémon will unleash their moves when you tell them to. Strategically swapping out your Pokémon and accounting for each move’s timing and area of effect will greatly help you in this new style of battle.
When Trainers have a strong bond with their Pokémon, a Key Stone worn by the Trainer resonates with a Mega Stone held by their Pokémon, allowing Mega Evolution to take place.
Mega Evolution goes beyond the limits of standard Evolution, imparting even greater power by temporarily unleashing a Pokémon’s hidden energy.
Pokémon will change their appearance when they Mega Evolve—and certain ones may even change types—but they’re still your same trusty partners!
Rampaging Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon are threatening Lumiose City. These Pokémon are extra tough to beat, but if you do manage to defeat them, you'll receive valuable Mega Stones as a reward.
You’re invited to join the Z-A Royale, a competition for Pokémon Trainers to test their skills and determine who’s strongest.
Each night, a battle zone for the competition will appear. Prepare yourself by spending the day in wild zones, catching and training Pokémon, then venture into the battle zone and take on other Trainers.
Be strategic and complete bonus card challenges as you battle to speed up your climb from Rank Z to Rank A.
Can you climb the ranks and reach the top?
Choose Chikorita, Tepig, or Totodile as your first partner Pokémon, and then set off on a grand adventure!
Chikorita
Chikorita can use the large leaf on its head to determine the temperature and humidity of its surroundings. It will also use this leaf to seek out warm places, since it loves sunbathing.
TEPIG
Tepig uses its excellent sense of smell to find food. It loves to roast and eat Berries, but sometimes it gets too excited and burns them to a crisp, rendering them inedible.
TOTODILE
Totodile is small, but it has a rough and tough personality. It won’t hesitate to take a bite out of anything that moves within its sight. Its powerful, well-developed jaws are capable of crushing anything.
Visit shops, restaurants, and more, all centered around Prism Tower. An urban redevelopment plan is underway to shape the city into a place that belongs to both people and Pokémon.
Lumiose City is filled with trendy boutiques where you can buy new outfits and hairstyles for your character.
Relax at one of the city’s many cafés and restore your Pokémon’s health while making them more friendly towards you.
The city has been outfitted with "wild zones" in an effort to help humans and Pokémon share the city. They contain all kinds of Pokémon to catch and battle!
While visiting Lumiose City, you’ll be staying at Hotel Z, which will serve as your home base.
You can use Holovators to access rooftops and will eventually unlock Roto-Glide, letting you soar temporarily through the air.
Be on the lookout for ways to help out residents in need around Lumiose City—you might even earn a reward!
You’ll meet all kinds of interesting characters on your journey!
Urbain or Taunie
You’ll make a new friend—either Urbain or Taunie—who lives and works at Hotel Z, supporting the owner however they can. They may come on strong at times, but they like helping people and Pokémon.
AZ
Known as Hotel Z’s enigmatic owner, AZ stands over nine feet tall and claims to be three thousand years old. He quietly harbors a strong determination and will.
Eternal Flower Floette
Floette is AZ’s partner Pokémon—and like her towering companion, she too is said to have lived for three thousand years.
Jett
Jett is the CEO of Quasartico Inc., a large corporation driving Lumiose’s urban redevelopment plan with the aim of shaping the city into one that belongs to both people and Pokémon.
Vinnie
A busy man with an imposing physique and a reputation for being a fast worker, Vinnie regularly sports sunglasses and works for Quasartico as Jett’s secretary.
