A new leak moved the Pokémon community by publicizing this week a list of 26 alleged mega evolutions that may be present in Pokémon Legends: ZA . The game, with no official release date, takes place in the Kalos region and promises to rescue one of the most beloved mechanics by players: the mega evolutions, originally introduced in the sixth generation. The city of Lumiosis, symbol of the X and Y era, also is present, reinforcing the nostalgic bond that the new title intends to explore.

According to information from the Centro Leaks Specialized profile, known for anticipating franchise news often, the highlight of the list is in the presence of unpublished forms for monsters of various generations.
The Kalos region leads with ten new representatives, including the initial three - Chesnaught, Delphox and Greninja. Thus, the choice reinforces the central role of the setting in the game proposal, with reinforcement of the plot and the battle system.
Diversity of regions marks the choices and raises hypotheses about the balance in the metagame
In addition to Kalos, the Unova region appears with six evolutions, including Mega Chandelure and Mega Excadrill. Kanto, the franchise's cradle, contributes four names - Mega Dragonitis and Mega Victreebell are the main ones.
Johto, Sinnoh, Alola and Galar also appear on the list, although less prominent. The presence of Mega Froslass, Mega Drampa and Mega Falinks suggests an intention to maintain variety between types and styles of combat, signaling possible restructuring of the competitive metagame.
However, despite the positive repercussion, the absence of names like Milotic, Flygon and Togekiss did not go unnoticed. Flygon, in particular, returned to the center of fans' discussions because he was already quoted for mega evolution in the sixth generation, but never happened. Thus, the exclusion of Pokémon from the Hoenn region, considered a significant favorite from the players base, also generated criticism on social networks.
Unconfirmed leakage raises debate between fans and maintains mystery about final content
The list has not yet been confirmed by The Pokémon Company, which maintains the content in the field of rumors. However, the history of the leakage profile of the profile reinforces the credibility of the disclosed material. On the other hand, the immediate repercussion of the content shows how much the return of mega evolutions moves fans, who see in mechanics a strategic and visual differential.
Among the highlights listed are known names and others unexpected. Mega Zygarde, Mega Eternal Flower Floette and Mega Malamar reinforce the connection with more complex plots in the Kalos region. However, Mega Scrafty, Mega Barbaracle and Mega Hawlucha indicate a broader look at the available types and their applications in the battles. Thus, the balance between offensive power and defensive tactics seems to be one of the bets of the new game.
