While we're busy shiny hunting in "Pokémon Legends: Z-A", the hype for the newest mainline game just reached new heights. Recent leaks indicate that a massive Mega Dimension DLC expansion, is coming out with returning Pokémon and all-new Mega Evolutions.
If the recent datamine is correct, then this may be among the biggest post-launch content releases ever seen in Pokémon games. That's three months of waiting from now.
Massive Leak Unveils What's Coming to 'Pokémon Legends: Z-A'
According to a datamine from reliable leaker @Mattyoukhana, the upcoming Mega Dimension DLC will include 138 returning Pokémon, with 19 never-before-seen Mega Evolutions. That means players are not only going to reunite with some classic favorites but also see some iconic Pokémon in new and more powerful forms.
Nintendo will release the DLC at the same week that Pokémon Day will kick off. That's a good news for the franchise, especially for fans who are looking forward to the new DLC features.
Given that Pokémon Gen 10 is already a given, the Mega Dimension DLC could be a perfect swan song for "Pokémon Legends: Z-A" before the next generation starts.
New Leaked Mega Evolutions
The key feature of the DLC is that it adds 19 new Mega Evolutions, expanding the number of powerful transformations. The list of standouts includes Mega Raichu X and Y, Mega Lucario, Mega Garchomp, Mega Absol, and Mega Heatran.
Everything from Darkrai and Magearna to even Zeraora will supposedly have Mega forms, which says a great deal about their place in the story. The return of Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon has also been speculated by the fans, which may imply the storyline could again get into ancient powers and transformations.
Returning Pokémon and Expansive Roster
The datamine has an impressive list of returning Pokémon, from the most classic ones like Jigglypuff, Machamp, and Crobat to some of the more recent inclusions such as Tinkaton, Gholdengo, and Baxcalibur. There's no clear explanation why it skipped the other new creatures, but what is sure is that fans will get a nostalgia fever from this expansion.
If true, "Pokémon Legends: Z-A" Mega Dimension could feature one of the biggest Pokédex updates ever provided in a single DLC, according to GameRant.
While this leak electrified the community, it is still unofficial. Pokémon Company, Nintendo, and Game Freak have not yet confirmed the details of the Mega Dimension DLC. Always take this news with a grain of salt.
In the meantime, here's how to switch Zygarde's formes.
