Description

Live the life of a Pokémon Trainer and help protect the peace in Lumiose City! Lumiose City—a home for people and Pokémon alike. Thanks to an urban redevelopment plan driven by Quasartico Inc., the lush greenery of verdant parks intermingles with facilities using the latest cutting-edge technology. A lot has changed here since the days of the Pokémon™ X and Pokémon Y games! Choose Chikorita, Tepig, or Totodile as your first partner Pokémon, and then set off on a grand adventure! Your journey will take you to all manner of sights in the streets arrayed around Prism Tower, including shops, restaurants, and places called wild zones—where Pokémon roam free. As you catch, train, and battle Pokémon, there will be plenty of people to meet too—like AZ, the enigmatic owner of Hotel Z, and Team MZ, the crew that aims to keep Lumiose a peaceful place. Catch, battle, and Mega Evolve—all in real time! Step onto the battlefield and command your Pokémon directly—there are no turns! For the first time in the Pokémon RPG series, Trainers and their Pokémon can both move around in real-time battles, and your Pokémon will unleash their moves when you tell them to. Strategically swapping out your Pokémon and accounting for each move’s timing and area of effect will greatly help you in this new style of battle. Harness the power of Mega Evolution! Unleash your Pokémon’s hidden energy to temporarily transform its appearance, enhance its capabilities, and perhaps even change its type. Use this power wisely and try to overcome your toughest challenges, like those posed by the rampaging Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon across Lumiose City. Investigate these dangerous incidents so you can put a stop to them—you may even encounter new Mega-Evolved Pokémon along the way! Compete in the Z-A Royale when night falls—or battle with other players in the Z-A Battle Club You’re invited to join the Z-A Royale, a competition for Pokémon Trainers to test their skills and determine who’s strongest. Each night, a battle zone for the competition will appear. Prepare yourself by spending the day catching and training Pokémon, then venture into the battle zone to take on other Trainers. Be strategic and complete bonus card challenges as you battle to speed up your climb from Rank Z to Rank A. Reach the top, and you might just have a wish granted. You can also test your skills against friends or Trainers around the world in the Z-A Battle Club. Take on up to three other Trainers at once, locally or online, in frenetic real-time battles!

  • Cool game
Platform: Nintendo Switch Edition: Game only
This game is rad. It’s always good to have physical media over downloads. I’m not happy with my squad bc they’re just not all that cool, but I hope to attain the pokemon I want, to become the pokemon master that I want to be. I still have a ways to go in the game but I can say this new style of gameplay for battles is rad. ... show more

  • One of the best Pokémon games ever
Platform: Nintendo Switch Edition: Game only
This game I got in 2025. I can't stop playing it. The in-game story looks amazing. It works well on my Nintendo Switch 1. Plus, It's playable on both the Nintendo Switch 1 and Nintendo Switch 2. I don't have a Nintendo Switch 2 so I can't tell you the gameplay for the Nintendo Switch 2 yet. I'm sure that other reviews will tell you more than what I can. ... show more

  • A fun return to Kalos
Platform: Nintendo Switch Edition: Game only
I was mostly excited about the return to the XY games and Mega Evolutions, as well as better trainer customization after Scarlet/Violet's School Uniforms. The Moves are on a Cool-Down system instead of using a stock amount, which I actually like better. Some of the stronger moves feel actually usable now. The story and characters pulled me in too, keeping me going until the credits rolled. ... show more

  • A Step in the Right Direction
Platform: Nintendo Switch Edition: Game only
After 75 hours of gameplay and wrapping up the game, I have determined this...ZA is a LOT of a fun. Solid 8/10, if I had to give it a score. I've played every Pokemon game since Gen 1, and ZA offers a different experience without taking away what makes Pokemon so endearing. It isn't perfect (no game is.) For a group of fans, lack of voice acting for the humans is an issue. Personally- it wasn't for me, as I've lived through the era of RPGs that had bare minimum voice acting. So if you have similar experiences, I doubt it will be a deal breaker for you. What may be a deal breaker is that this is the Pokemon game with the least amount of diverse environments. You are kept within Lumiose City, which slowly changes but is still just in the city. For me, I appreciated it for a reason I'll explain later. However, if you play Pokemon becuase you love adventuring through a region- then ZA may not fulfill that for you. This game also has one of the smallest rosters of available Pokemon to catch. It makes it easy to 100% the Pokedex. However, if you're picky with which Pokemon you enjoy, then you may want to check if your faves are in this game. What the game lacks in diverse environments, it makes up for it with diverse NPC and Pokemon interactions. This is one of the reasons the confined setting works me. ZA is the Pokemon game that really explores the relationships between humans and Pokemon within an urban setting. The player will see how Pokemon and humans form bonds. Other times, you'll see how they just learn to co-exist. It's something I only really saw explored in the anime. I really enjoyed engaging with the concept through ZA. Speaking of NPCs, I think ZA has one of the best cast of characters in the Pokemon franchise. This is another benefit of staying in Lumiose City. The player will interact with the same characters, and you'll get to know them pretty well. The writing is also really fun and ZA has some of the best dialogue that Pokemon has had in a while. Finally, the new battle system. If there's something I want GameFreak to know, it's this. Please improve and implement this battle system into mainstream Pokemon games. It completely changed how I play Pokemon. There were battles that actually worried me, because I could lose if I wasn't prepared or paying attention. I haven't felt like that since I was a kid. If you're a Pokemon fan who has grown tired of its turn-based battle system, then I recommend giving ZA a chance. Was it worth the price? For me, it was. I put in a lot of hours into this game and don't regret it. I think ZA is the step in the right direction that Pokemon absolutely needs. If you're a Pokemon fan who relates/appreciates anything I've said, then I'd recommend you give it a chance. If the price is too intimidating, then wait for it to go on sale 😉 ... show more

  • Legends: Z? or A-?
Platform: Nintendo Switch Edition: Game only
So, elephant in the room, this game is not as good as Legends: Arceus. However, so much of the hatred surrounding this game is based on graphics and supposed performance issues. I have had zero lag running on my original Switch from 2017. The graphics are not mind-blowing, but far from terrible. The gameplay is amazing, and the story is fantastic. Don't let the haters deter you from purchasing this game. It's an enjoyable adventure and worth the price tag, compared to other games I've played recently. ... show more

  • A good game, bad price
Platform: Nintendo Switch Edition: Game only
Just recently finished the game. The story is absolutely fantastic. I loved all the characters and the finale might honestly be in my top 10 favorite endings. While the pokedex is downsized, they did give a lot of love to what they had. Most of the animations are new, and some of the shinies were even adjusted. The saturation issues seem to finally be resolved. Even the human models got an upgrade- they mess with their hair and eyelashes in animations and they are even more emotive. There is plenty to do between the many side quests and research missions, despite the story only being roughly 25-32 hours. The gameplay is pretty fun, especially with the changes to the speed stat and how moves function in real time. My main issue is even though it is a good game, it does not feel worth the price. While the character and pokemon models have improved, the environment has taken a hit, and there is limited customization for the face/hair for the character (only 3 eye shapes, and most of the hair does not have bangs options. Also the clothes seem to be very limited in color, which is almost made up for by the mix and match.) It feels like it should be $20 cheaper. It is by no stretch a horrible game, and is a refreshing take on the pokemon games. Despite its flaws, I haven't had this much fun with pokemon since the DS era. I played the switch 2 version that I ordered elsewhere, and my sister played the switch 1 version. She has reported no noticeable glitches or lag, though the load times are 4-6 seconds longer. ... show more
