Z-A Fans Say These Three Most Deserve Mega Evolutions

Key Takeaways

Fans are excited about Mega Evolutions returning in Pokemon Legends: Z-A.
Some fans believe Greninja, Delphox, and Chesnaught should receive Mega Evolutions.
Speculation includes the possibility of encountering Kalos starters in the game.

Pokemon fans think that Greninja, Delphox, and Chesnaught deserve to get Mega Evolutions in Pokemon Legends: Z-A. There’s a lot about Pokemon Legends: Z-A that fans don’t know yet, such as which Pokemon will be the game’s starters. But one piece of information has already been confirmed, and it has been getting the community very excited ever since.

This information is the return of Mega Evolutions, an announcement that was received very positively, since this is one of the most popular Pokemon gimmicks. Introduced with the release of Pokemon X and Y, this evolution is a temporary state that a critter unlocks when using its corresponding Mega Stone. Despite being a mechanic introduced more than 10 years ago, there are only 46 Pokemon that are able to access this form, and 48 different Mega Evolutions, which opens up a world of possibilities for the next game in the series.

Pokemon Legends: Z-A’s ‘Starter Leak’ May Not Be What it Seems

A new leak seems to have teased Pokemon Legends: Z-A’s starters, but there may be more to it than meets the eye.

Several fans such as Redditor vetikkehvajegkanhete believe that Greninja, Delphox, and Chesnaught, the Gen 6 starters, should get Mega Evolutions in Pokemon Legends: Z-A. They suggest that instead of the game featuring regional forms of monsters that aren’t from Kalos, players could instead have access to the trio’s Mega Evolutions. It’s worth remembering that Legends: Z-A is set in Lumiose City, one of the cities of Kalos, and that fans have already shown what it would be like if the Gen 6 starters had Mega Evos.

Fans Support Kalos Starters Getting Mega Evos in Pokemon Legends: Z-A

In the comments section, other Pokemon fans approved of the OP’s idea. In one of the replies, a Redditor suggested that Pokemon Legends: Z-A could have both, with non-Kalos starters introduced at the beginning of the game, and along the way, trainers having the chance to encounter Froakie, Fennekin, and Chespin. Another comment noted that Mega Evolutions was something created to revisit old critters with new ideas, so since the release of Pokemon X and Y was a decade ago, it would be a good opportunity.

With the confirmation that Mega Evolutions will be back in Pokemon Legends: Z-A, fans have been making a wide variety of fanart picturing critters that could finally get the treatment. There’s no shortage of very creative ideas featuring Mega Evolutions for Zoroark, and other pocket monsters like Flygon, Electrode, Yanmega, and Klinklang. Since Pokemon Legends: Z-A comes out in 2025, fans wait to discover which critters will receive new Mega Evolutions, and whether the Kalos trio will receive new forms.
