Speculation is heating up around Pokemon Legends: Z-A as more leaks hint at possible new Mega Evolutions. While many of these rumored Megas align with typical fan predictions, there’s one that comes as a fascinating twist for long-time enthusiasts.
Since the game’s initial reveal, Pokemon fans have been buzzing with theories about new Mega Evolutions potentially making an appearance in Legends: Z-A. Recently, a supposed list of these new Megas surfaced online, sparking both excitement and skepticism among the community. Although the source hasn’t been officially confirmed, it aligns with the recent announcement of the game’s Switch 2 release—though there’s been no official word on Mega Evolutions just yet. The leaked roster offers a mix of fan-favorite Pokémon like Dragonite, key storyline characters like the initial starter trio, and some unexpected choices, such as Falinks. Yet, the biggest shock by far is the suggestion that AZ’s Eternal Flower Floette might be receiving its own Mega Evolution, which would make it the only mid-stage evolution to earn such a distinction.
Why Eternal Flower Floette Deserves a Mega Evolution
Eternal Flower Floette is one of 27 Pokémon listed in the leaks that could be getting Mega Evolutions in Pokemon Legends: Z-A, a unique first in the series. What’s striking is that it breaks the typical rules, as even Pikachu, the series’ mascot, never had a Mega form. Traditionally, only final-stage Pokémon have been powerful enough for such transformations. However, it’s believed that only the Eternal Flower Floette, AZ’s unique partner from Pokemon X and Y—which by itself can’t evolve due to the extraordinary energy it received from the ultimate weapon—can achieve this special form.
Hints From Leaked Mega Evolutions
With Eternal Flower Floette potentially able to Mega Evolve, players are speculating about its role in upcoming battles. There are theories that AZ might lend his powerful partner to players during the game, or perhaps, players may even face it in battle. This feature could reveal new aspects of the storyline in Legends: Z-A. Moreover, these leaks suggest that new Mega Pokémon might replace the functions of ride Pokémon from Legends: Arceus.
Some of the candidates include:
- Mega Pyroar: Faster travel
- Mega Excadrill: Item discovery
- Mega Starmi: Water navigation
- Mega Barbaracle: Climbing support
- Mega Skarmory: Aerial journeys
AZ’s reappearance, along with his Floette, has already piqued interest about their narrative significance in the game. If this leak is true, he might play a larger role than imagined. Known as a former king of the Kalos region and an immortal giant from X and Y, AZ’s current guise as a hotel manager at Hotel Z seems uncharacteristic. Could this tranquil lifestyle be just a ruse?
If AZ and his enhanced Floette step into battle, it might become one of the game’s standout moments, offering a fresh look at Pokemon Legends: Z-A’s unused narrative potential from X and Y. The story of AZ and Eternal Flower Floette never got its proper resolution, but this could be their second chance to shine, along with a newfound appreciation for the 27 leaked Mega Pokémon.
