What are the new Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A?

Pokémon Legends: Z-A introduced a total of 26 new Mega Evolutions to the game series. These range from evolutions of new starters like Meganium, as well as those for older Gen-1 Pokémon like Mega Starmie and Mega Clafable.

Below is a list of all the new Mega Pokémon ^[1] introduced in Pokémon Legends: Z-A.

• Mega Clefable
• Mega Victreebel
• Mega Starmia
• Mega Dragonite
• Mega Meganium
• Mega Feraligatr
• Mega Skarmory
• Mega Froslass
• Mega Emboar
• Mega Excadrill
• Mega Scolipede
• Mega Scrafty
• Mega Eelektross
• Mega Chandelure

• Mega Delphox
• Mega Greninja
• Mega Pyroar
• Mega Malamar

• Mega Drampa
• Mega Falinks

It’s important to keep in mind that this isn’t all of the Mega Evolutions to come to the game. On the contrary, since Pokémon Legends: Z-A is slated to have multiple DLCs, it makes sense that the game will eventually introduce new Megas to the game, including the Mega Zygarde that was featured in the DLC’s trailer.

With this being said, it’s fairly unlikely that the DLCs will have many more Mega Evolutions. Since the game will likely only have a handful of DLCs, and that too without much space expansion, the number of new Megas will, at most, likely only double.

How do you Mega Evolve in Pokémon Legends: Z-A?

Fortunately, Mega Evolving a Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Z-A isn’t too tough. All you have to do is equip a Pokémon with its specific Mega Stone. For example, if you want to Mega Evolve Greninja, then you’ll need a Greninjite. With that done, you’ll also require the Key Stone for yourself, since that’s how this new form of evolution is unlocked. You get the Key Stone during Main Mission 9: Chase That Mysterious Pokémon!

With both of the prerequisites met, it’s time to go into a battle with the Pokémon you want to evolve. You’ll see that the screen will have a new Mega Power meter. Once it’s full, you can Mega Evolve your Pokémon to its more powerful stage. This evolution lasts until the meter depletes, at which point the Pokémon will revert to its original form.

As for what happens if the match ends while a Pokémon is already Mega Evolved, the Pokémon still reverts to its regular stage. Mega Evolution isn’t permanent, which is why you must Mega Evolve your Pokémon again every time you start a battle.
