Nintendo has officially listed pre-orders for its new Pokémon Legends Z-A Switch 2 bundle, set to land on October 16. If you've yet to get your hands on the handheld, and you're holding out for Z-A, this is where you need to be looking. But, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't bummed out that we're not getting a limited edition design.

Announced over at X in line with yesterday's Pokémon Presents presentation, the fresh Legends Z-A Switch 2 bundle is set to be available at "participating retailers." If you've been routinely checking where to buy a Nintendo Switch 2, you'll know that the gaming handheld has been available at the likes of Best Buy, GameStop, and Target, but stock has been extremely slow.

Quick check Switch 2 Pokemon Legends Z-A bundle stock

  • ✅ Nintendo: In stock
  • Amazon: Check stock
  • Target: Check stock
  • Antonline: Check stock
  • Walmart: Check stock
  • GameStop: In-store only

  • Amazon: Check stock
  • Currys: Check stock
  • Very: Check stock
  • The Game Collection: Check stock
  • EE: Check stock
  • ShopTo: Check stock
  • Argos: Check stock

The Pokémon Legends Z-A Switch 2 bundle bears the same $499.99 price tag as the Mario Kart World edition, but it won't release until this October. The setup is the same as the launch bundle in that you're getting a download code packed alongside a vanilla version of the handheld, so there's nothing particularly fancy going on with this edition.

I'm trying not to be an Electabuzz-kill (sorry), but I would have loved to see the Pokémon Legends Z-A release spark a new era of limited edition handhelds. Both the 3DS and original Switch got some tremendous special edition designs that made specific bundles worth buying beyond getting a download code, and I would have even settled for some different colored Joy-Con.

But alas, it's early days for the Switch 2, and while I want fancy handhelds to lust over, I'll take new bundles that should help bolster stock. Just keep in mind that if you prefer buying physical games for your collection, you'll want to grab the separate cartridge and a vanilla handheld to avoid pesky digital downloads.

Where to pre-order the Pokémon Legends Z-A Switch 2 bundle in the US

Nintendo Store | In stock

Nintendo Store | ✅In stock
The Nintendo Store now has Pokémon Legends Z-A Switch 2 bundles available, so it should be the first place you hit for the handheld paired with the upcoming RPG. It won't release until October, though, so bear that in mind before jumping on this edition.

Target | Check stock

Target | Check stock
Target actually has Switch 2 consoles available today, and that means it could end up with even more stock if it gets the Pokémon bundle pre-order. I'd hit here first since it'll mean you can grab existing options if Legends Z-A stock is scarce.

Amazon | Check stock

Amazon | Check stock
Out of every retailer, Amazon has been dragging its heels with Switch 2 stock. However, the online giant could redeem itself by having pre-orders availble tomorrow, so it's well worth checking just in case.

Antonline | Check stock

Antonline | Check stock
When it comes to vanilla Switch 2 stock, Antonline has proven pretty reliable so far. I suspect it'll end up with pre-orders for the Pokémon edition, but whether they'll last is a different matter entirely.

Walmart | Check stock
Walmart has offered up a few Nintendo Switch 2 stock drops in the last few weeks, but is currently only offering handhelds with inflated priced.

GameStop | Check stock

GameStop | Check stock
GameStop has been prioritizing in-store purchases over online stock, but that could change with the new Pokemon bundle. It's well worth checking if you want that specific version since its one of Nintendo's partner retailers.

Best Buy | Check stock

Best Buy | Check stock
Normal Switch 2 stock is sold out at Best Buy, but that could be in anticipation of Pokémon bundle pre-orders landing. If you're struggling to get hold of the handheld in general, swinging by here is a sound idea.

Where to pre-order the Pokémon Legends Z-A Switch 2 bundle in the Uk

Nintendo Store | Check stock

Nintendo Store | Check stock
UK Switch 2 stock at the official Nintendo Store remains healthy, and I'd be extremely surprised if the Pokémon bundle doesn't immediately pop up here on July 23.

Argos | Check stock

Argos | Check stock
Out of all the UK retailers, Argos was one of the strongest during the Switch 2 launch. Whether it'll have a nice supply of Pokemon bundle pre-orders remains to be seen, but it should still be one ofn the first places you check.

Very | Check stock

Very | Check stock
Alongside Argos, Very has proven itself to be a solid place to check for Switch 2 stock throughout the launch. That'll hopefully translate to it getting lots of Pokemon bundle pre-orders in, and it'll be worth checking the site when the drop happens.

Currys | Check stock

Currys | Check stock
Currys is fresh out of Switch 2 stock, but again, the absence could be in line with fresh Pokemon bundles dropping. You'll want to keep the retailer in your back pocket if it vanishes quick at other stores.

ShopTo already has Pokemon Legends Z-A available for pre-order, and since it has the Switch 2 in stock too, it feels like it should have the new bundle tomorrow.
