During the Pokémon Present transmission this Thursday (27), The Pokémon Company revealed new details about Pokémon Legends Za. The game, scheduled for the end of 2025, will take the coaches back to the city of Lumiose, which first appeared in Pokémon X and Y, but now reformulated with a new urban design and improved mechanics.

This time, Lumiosis will undergo a technological transformation led by the Quasartic company Inc. The proposal is to create a modern city where humans and Pokémon live in harmony, with innovations that will make life easier for coaches. However, despite the totally urban setting, the game will keep the Wild Zones, open areas where Pokémon live without the presence of coaches.
The capture system will be similar to that of Pokémon Legends: Arceus. Some monsters can be captured simply throwing a ball Poké at the right time, while others will require battles before the capture.
Initials revealed and absence of Cyndaquil generates debates
The coaches will be able to choose from three initial Pokémon of distinct generations: Chikorita and Totodile, from the second generation, and Tepig, from the farm. The absence of Cyndaquil, who was present in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, generated mixed reactions among fans, who already discuss the choice on social networks.
In addition to the initials, the trailer has displayed several iconic species such as Flareon, Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flaffy and Lucario, indicating that Pokémon's cast will be large and diverse.
Megaevolutions are back after missing years at Pokémon Legends Za
One of the biggest surprises of the trailer was the confirmation of the return of megaevolution, a mechanics introduced in Pokémon X and Y and absent in the franchise's main games in recent years. Thus, the system will allow selected Pokémon to reach a new level of power temporarily.
The video showed megaevolutions from Charizard, Lucario, Gardevoir and Ampharos, rekindling the enthusiasm of the players. However, it is still unclear whether new megaevolutions will be added or if the game will only have those already known.
Real -time combat system and possible Switch version 2
Unlike traditional shift combat, Pokémon Legends Z will adopt a real -time system in which Pokémon move freely throughout the field. The blows will have specific range areas, making the positioning strategy crucial to avoid attacks and seize offensive opportunities.
This dynamic approach adds a new level of battle complexity and promises to make fights more immersive. In addition to the duels against wild Pokémon, the game will also allow you to face other coaches.
With a launch scheduled for the end of 2025, there is still no confirmation if the title will receive an optimized version for the long -awaited Switch 2. However, Nintendo should reveal more details about its new console in a transmission scheduled for April, which can bring news about a possible graphic and performance for Pokémon Legends ZA.
