Nintendo has confirmed that Pokemon Legends Z-A will be getting a DLC expansion titled Mega Dimension.

In the teaser trailer for the DLC we were shown Hoopa opening up some kind of portal, with two Raichu emerging from it, who quickly revealed themselves to be Mega Raichu X and Mega Raichu Y making it the third Pokemon to receive two Mega Evolution forms in the series after Charizard and Mewtwo. According to The Pokemon Company "Mega Raichu X floats using electromagnetism, concentrating electricity into its fists to land devastating blows. Mega Raichu Y strikes foes swiftly with the amplified electric power coursing through its body."
