Pokémon Legends Z-A complete pre-order guide
Image via: The Pokemon Company With Pokémon Legends: Z-A touted to be the next big release in the franchise, fans have every reason to lock in their pre-orders early. Scheduled for release on October 16, 2025, the game takes the players into the sci-fi dimension of the once familiar Kalos Lumiose City completely at odds with the ancient Hisui in Legends: Arceus. Here is everything you need to know about pre-orders, game versions, bonuses, and perhaps the biggest Pokémon release of these years. Dual-Platform Release: Switch and Switch 2 First, any mainline Pokémon title will be released on both the Nintendo Switch and its next-generation cousin, Switch 2. This will guarantee access for 150+ million users on Switch while also exposing the new-ish-gen Nintendo console to glory. Switch version price: $59.99 Switch 2 version price: $69.99 Upgrade option: Players starting from Switch can opt to upgrade to the Switch 2 version after launch. It provides this flexibility for the end-user, noting that this new release works in a way similar to other cross-gen launches. Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Available for Pre-order Pre-order Bonus: Sitting Cuties Plush If you want another reason besides sheer excitement to pre-order, don't forget that The Pokémon Center is offering a Sitting Cuties Plush for free. These hand-sized plushies are absolutely adorable collectibles that retail for approximately $17 and display one of the game's three Pokemon starters: Chikorita, Tepig, or Totodile. Note: Players will not be able to choose which one they get. Meet Your New Starters in Lumiose City The other thing about this team is that the choice begins with: Chikorita (Grass-type—Gen II) Tepig (Fire-type—Gen V) Totodile (Water-type—Gen II) This unusual regional mix hints at some sort of crossover themes or extended Pokédex entries. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like New Launch at Godrej Sector 12 | Luxurious 3 & 4 BHK Homes @₹2.91 Cr* Godrej Majesty Book Now Undo It also gives a slight nod to the older generations in what will be a futuristic Kalos setting, hinting at the merging of both past and future Pokémon lore. Mega Evolution Returns, Along with Z-A Royale Another mechanic that returns is the much-loved Mega Evolution from X and Y. Alongside new plushes and teasers for artworks, the Mega Evolutions are primed to become the focus of intense combat and story development. Adding to the fun enjoyment is the "Z-A Royale", a city-wide tournament where players rank up in competitive battles. This is a great new mechanic to keep folks playing and challenged, well outside of the main story. Pokemon Legends: Z-A - Official Pre-Order Trailer Where to Pre-Order Pre-orders can be placed via primary retailers: Nintendo eShop Pokémon Center (with plush bonus) Best Buy GameStop Walmart Target You want to make sure to check for platform versions (Switch vs. Switch 2) and bonus eligibility while placing your a new setting, strange starters, cross-generation availability, and actual worthy pre-order rewards, Pokémon Legends: Z-A is shaping up to be the single most ambitious leap the franchise has taken since Legends.

You can now pre-order Pokémon Legends: Z-A for the Switch and Switch 2
Pokémon Legends: Z-A , the much-awaited follow-up to 2022's P okémon Legends: Arceus, is now available for pre-order. You can get the digital version for the old Switch for $60 or for the new Switch 2 for $70 from Nintendo's website. In case you have no plans to get the Switch 2 anytime soon and you do get the game for the first Switch console, you can purchase an upgrade pack for $10 to get access to better graphics and higher frame rate for Nintendo's new system later on. Pre-ordering lets you pre-load the game so you can play it as soon as it becomes available on October 16. The action role-playing game is not just a follow-up to Arceus , but also a sequel to Pokémon X and Y . It's set in Lumiose City, introduced in X and Y over a decade ago, and features three available starters: Chikorita and Totodile from Gold and Silver , as well as Tepig from Black and White . Its gameplay is a mix of the real-time capture mechanics on Arceus and the old-school turn-based gameplay of traditional Pokémon titles. The game is also bringing back X and Y's Mega Evolution mechanic, which can temporarily transform a Pokémon into a much stronger monster, boosting its power and sometimes even changing its type. The physical version of Pokémon Legends: Z-A is now also available for pre-order from retailers like Walmart (Switch, Switch 2) and Best Buy (Switch, Switch 2.). It's not clear if pre-ordering the game will get you any bonuses, but the Walmart listing URLs hint at an "exclusive gift with purchase."
