At the "Nintendo Direct 2025.3.27," the latest footage for the long-awaited latest title in the "Pokémon" series, "Pokémon LEGENDS: Z-A," scheduled for release in Fall 2025, was revealed.
The trailer released this time showcases the daytime and nighttime appearances of "Lumiose City," the setting.

"Lumiose City," a City Where People and Pokémon Coexist

"Lumiose City" is a city undergoing urban redevelopment for the harmonious coexistence of people and Pokémon.
You can encounter wild Pokémon in the "Wild Zones" located throughout the city.
In the Wild Zones, players can catch Pokémon.
Also, some Pokémon are said to inhabit areas outside the Wild Zones, so let's explore "Lumiose City"!

"Z-A Royale" Held Every Night

In "Lumiose City," a "Battle Zone" surrounded by red holograms appears at night!
Within the "Battle Zone," trainers are competing for supremacy in "Z-A Royale" until dawn, aiming to become the strongest.
"Z-A Royale" is a battle to determine the strongest Pokémon trainer, in which only trainers whose abilities are recognized can participate.

Stay Sharp and Enter the Battle! "Battle Zone"

In the "Battle Zone," trainers and Pokémon ready for battle are looking for opponents.
When the opponent's "Presence Gauge" is maxed out, they will be noticed by the opponent, initiating a seamless battle.

You can also approach without being noticed by the opponent and initiate a surprise attack.

Aim for the Strongest and Raise Your Rank!

Participants each have a "Rank" from Z to A, which increases by winning battles.
Ranks start from Z rank, and it is said that upon reaching the peak A rank, you can have one wish granted.

Although Lumiose City has a dual nature (day and night), it seems there are still secrets to uncover.
Let's wait for further news on "Pokémon LEGENDS: Z-A"!
