Pokémon Legends: Z-A Introduces Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokemon

Outside of new characters, a new location and the Z-A Royale, Pokémon Legends: Z-A is also introducing Rogue Mega Evolutions. The strange phenomenon only affects wild Pokémon in Lumiose City, as they Mega Evolve and effectively go berserk, unable to suppress their strength.

Players will need to tackle them with Mega Evolutions of their own, which offers a look at the latest addition to the series: Mega-Dragonite. It takes some cues from Dratini with the wings on its head and a pearl on its tail. Despite its strength, however, you’ll also want an ally from Team MZ along to help out. “Strong bonds” with your Pokémon are also recommended.

Whatever is causing these Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon to appear, it’s up to the player to ultimately find out and protect Lumiose City. Pokémon Legends: Z-A is available on October 16th for Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2. For more details on the Z-A Royale, head here.
