Pokémon Legends: Z-A locks new Mega Evolutions behind a paywall
During yesterday’s Nintendo Direct, Pokémon announced that the three Kalosian starter evolutions – Delphox, Greninja, and Chesnaught – are finally getting Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends: Z-A. However, the livestream fails to mention the hoops that hopeful trainers need to jump through to claim these new forms.
I always find it very strange that, despite the gimmick’s introduction in Pokémon X and Y, until Mega Hawlucha’s reveal, only one gen 6 Pokémon has a Mega Evolution within the 3DS era. The latest Pokémon Legends: Z-A trailer shows off the Kalosian starter Pokémon’s long-awaited transformations, but it isn’t until further information drops that we can learn how to unlock them.
It would be one thing if the required Mega Stones were locked behind Mystery Gift distribution, as this leaves out trainers who don’t have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription. It would suck, but the vast majority of Pokémon players pay for the service to take part in raids and claim these gifts. No, Pokémon Legends: Z-A takes things one step further and has made Geninjite, Delphoxite, and Chesnaughtite only available as Z-A Battle Club rewards.
