    Pokémon Legends: Z-A - Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, Nintendo Switch – OLED Model

    Live the life of a Pokémon Trainer and help protect the peace in Lumiose City! Lumiose City—a home for people and Pokémon alike. Thanks to an urban redevelopment plan driven by Quasartico Inc., the lush greenery of verdant parks intermingles with facilities using the latest cutting-edge technology. A lot has changed here since the days of the Pokémon X and Pokémon Y games! Choose Chikorita, Tepig, or Totodile as your first partner Pokémon, and then set off on a grand adventure! Your journey will take you to all manner of sights in the streets arrayed around Prism Tower, including shops, restaurants, and places called wild zones—where Pokémon roam free. As you catch, train, and battle Pokémon, there will be plenty of people to meet too—like AZ, the enigmatic owner of Hotel Z, and Team MZ, the crew that aims to keep Lumiose a peaceful place. Catch, battle, and Mega Evolve—all in real time! 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. Harness the power of Mega Evolution! Unleash your Pokémon’s hidden energy to temporarily transform its appearance, enhance its capabilities, and perhaps even change its type. Use this power wisely and try to overcome your toughest challenges, like those posed by the rampaging Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon across Lumiose City. Investigate these dangerous incidents so you can put a stop to them—you may even encounter new Mega-Evolved Pokémon along the way! Compete in the Z-A Royale when night falls—or battle with other players in the Z-A Battle Club. 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 catching and training Pokémon, then venture into the battle zone to 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. Reach the top, and you might just have a wish granted. You can also test your skills against friends or Trainers around the world in the Z-A Battle Club. Take on up to three other Trainers at once, locally or online, in frenetic real-time battles! Additional games and systems required for multiplayer mode. Sold separately. Any Nintendo Switch Online membership (sold separately) and Nintendo Account required for online features. Membership auto-renews after initial term at the then-current price unless canceled. Not available in all countries. Internet access required for online features.

    Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Mega Dimension DLC - Nintendo Switch – OLED Model, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite [Digital]
    4.6(16)

    Venture into Hyperspace Lumiose for the next chapter of your adventure! Mysterious distortions have appeared without warning in Lumiose City. They seem to connect to a place known as Hyperspace Lumiose...and the Mythical Pokémon Hoopa has the power to transform them into portals so you can travel there! Hoopa needs your help to do it, though: team up with the mysterious and talented baker, Ansha, to gather Berries and make donuts that will awaken Hoopa’s power and grant you and your Pokémon a variety of useful effects. Once you’re in Hyperspace Lumiose, join the Mega Evolution successor, Korrina, and Team MZ to investigate its mysteries. Just be sure you’re ready—this otherworldly version of Lumiose City can be a threatening place. The Pokémon here are different, and sometimes rare, with hyperspace levels that can make their total levels exceed the normal limit of 100. It looks like your story with Team MZ isn’t over yet—continue your journey in Hyperspace Lumiose after completing the main game! As you progress through the Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Mega Dimension DLC , you may encounter more newly-discovered Mega Evolutions, such as two additional ones for Raichu —Mega Raichu X and Mega Raichu Y—as well as Mega Chimecho and Mega Baxcalibur! Upon purchasing this DLC , you can claim these Holo-X and Holo-Y in-game apparel items and wear them even during your journey through the main game. Once you unlock the ability to adjust your character’s looks and outfit—about an hour into the main story—you can claim these apparel items by pressing the X Button to open the main menu, and then pressing the − Button to access the Outfit & Looks menu. If you purchase the Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Mega Dimension DLC physically or digitally by Saturday, February 28, 2026, you’ll get an email with a code for a Luxurious Poké Ball Set containing 3 Fast Balls, 3 Heavy Balls, 3 Level Balls, and 3 Lure Balls. This code can be redeemed through the Mystery Gift function in your game until Tuesday, March 10, 2026. 2025 Pokémon. 1995-2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. Pokémon and Nintendo Switch are trademarks of Nintendo. Full version of game required to use DLC. Sold separately. The Mystery Gift function can be found within the Link Play menu option in the main menu after you unlock the Rewards feature in Mable’s Research in the Pokémon Legends: Z-A game. You will need to connect your Nintendo Switch 2 or Nintendo Switch system to the internet to claim this bonus. The user profile on your system will need to be linked to a Nintendo Account in order to connect to the internet. (This does not require a Nintendo Switch Online membership.)
