All Legendaries in Pokemon Legends ZA and Mega Dimensions DLC

Pokemon Legends ZA Legendary Pokemon have more than doubled in number since the game's launch, with more Legendaries being added to the game via both DLC, free updates and Mystery Codes. With over half a dozen legendary Pokemon that players can get at this point, you can fill your team with legends and become a true master of mythic powers.

All Legendary Pokemon in the Mega Dimension DLC

The Mega Dimensions DLC for Pokemon Legends ZA adds multiple new Legendary Pokemon, returning from previous games. We've added all Legendaries found in the expansion so far below:

• Hoopa
• Heatran
• Groudon
• Kyogre
• Rayquaza
• Darkrai

(Yes, Hoopa and Heatran are borderline cases in terms of being considered Legendary or not, but we've added them for completeness' sake).

Most of these are unlocked through progress through the main story, though for some of them, you'll have to make special variants of the Pokemon Legends ZA Donuts, which trigger those encounters.

We'll update this sequence if we encounter more Legendary Pokemon in the expansion. If you've yet to play yourself, check out how to start Pokemon Legends ZA DLC and get into the extradimensional action!

All Legendary Pokemon in Legends ZA

At time of writing there are five legendary Pokemon in the core Pokemon Legends ZA Pokedex.

• Xerneas
• Yveltal
• Zygarde
• Diancie
• Mewtwo

The first three of these are accessed late in the game, and none of them are original to Legends: Z-A, as they're all returning legendary Pokemon from Generation 6 (aka, Pokemon X and Y). We'll explain how to get them all below.

However, Diancie and Mewtwo are online rewards earned through Pokemon Legends: Z-A Mystery Gift codes. We've explained how to get those at the attached guide!

How to get Xerneas

After completing the main game of Pokemon Legends: Z-A and starting its postgame, you'll be able to trigger a main mission that leads to you encountering the Pokemon X mascot Xerneas. After initiating the start of the Infinite Z-A Royale, head back inside Hotel Z, and you'll encounter L (AKA Lysandre). If he doesn't appear for you, try competing in the Infinite Z-A Royale and win a reward match first.

L will drop some deep lore, and then you'll unlock the main missions 40, "The One That Gives," and 41, "The One That Takes." You'll need to complete the former to find and catch Xerneas.

To complete the mission, first talk to Mable at the Pokemon Research Lab. She'll task you with three "anomalous alpha Pokemon" to either defeat or catch, with one appearing in Wild Zone 3, 5, and 9. These will stand out straight away as they're significantly higher levelled than anything else in any of these areas.

After doing so, return to Mable, and after you've spoken with her, you'll be able to find Xerneas in Wild Zone 11 by the water. You'll encounter it at level 75.

How to get Yveltal

The process to find and catch Yveltal in Pokemon Legends: Z-A is similar to that of Xerneas – the main initial difference being that you'll have to complete the aforementioned "The One That Takes" quest.

To complete it, you'll first have to talk to Grisham and Griselle at Cafe Nouveau by Prism Tower. After doing so, head to Quasartico Inc. to talk to Vinnie, and you'll be asked to take on simulated fights against three of the Rogue Mega Evolved Pokemon you fought as part of the main story – Tyranitar, Victreebel, and Hawlucha – which have increased in level since the last time you battled them.

Do this, and Pokemon Y mascot Yveltal will appear in Rouge Sector 2, on the roof of the Galerie de la Lune shopping arcade. I'll also be level 75 when you fight it.

How to get Zygarde

Zygarde might be the Legendary mascot of Pokemon Legends: Z-A, but it's the last one you'll encounter. After completing the quests to catch Xerneas and Yveltal, return to Hotel Z once more. L will challenge you to a battle, and after defeating him, Zygarde will appear in its 10% form, before running off to Prism Tower.

Enter Wild Zone 20 and meet Zygarde beneath the center of the tower. You'll then fight it in its three different forms – 10%, 50%, and Complete – back to back in a battle that plays out like a Rogue Mega Evolved Pokemon fight. This is a tough battle – with Complete Forme boasting some devastating attacks that deal massive damage to both you and your Pokemon. Win the fight, and you'll be able to catch Zygarde – it'll join your team at level 84, and L will also give you the Zygarde Cube so you can change its form.
