How to Defeat Rogue Mega Evolutions in Pokémon Legends ZA

Winning against a Rogue Mega Evolution can be challenging, and you may experience multiple blackouts. Here are some essential tips to help you conquer these formidable foes. Defeating a Rogue Mega Evolution will reward you with a Mega Stone for that specific Pokémon, making the effort worthwhile.

1. Bring Pokémon with Type Advantages

Every Pokémon has its own set of weaknesses and resistances. A general rule of thumb is to utilize Pokémon with type advantages, ensuring you hold the upper hand. Check the table above to understand the weaknesses of each Rogue Mega Evolution, and assemble your team accordingly. Aim to bring at least four Pokémon that exploit the weaknesses of the Rogue Mega Pokémon you’re facing.

2. Bring Pokémon That Can Mega Evolve

Mega Evolved Pokémon boast significantly enhanced stats compared to their regular forms. Including Mega Pokémon in your Rogue Battles has multiple benefits. You can collect Mega Orbs during battles to Mega Evolve your Pokémon, boosting their stats and inflicting greater damage. Moreover, Mega Pokémon can utilize Plus Moves more effectively, allowing them to remain active longer without depleting their energy as quickly as their standard counterparts.

3. Notice Attack Patterns and Dodge Them

Each Rogue Mega Evolution follows a unique attack pattern. Some might leap towards you for melee damage, while others unleash AoE or long-range strikes. They actively target your Pokémon but can focus on chasing you as well, so always stay alert. In Pokémon Legends ZA, you can sustain a maximum of three hits before the screen fades to red, indicating you’re about to black out. However, you can resume from where you left off after blacking out.

4. Collect Mega Orbs

As previously mentioned, Mega Pokémon play a crucial role in Rogue Mega Evolution Battles. Efficiently using Mega Orbs is key to victory, as they fill the Mega Gauge. Collect Mega Orbs to allow your Pokémon to Mega Evolve, facilitating the use of Plus Moves and enhancing your chances of success.

Now that you’re armed with the knowledge to tackle these Rogue Mega Evolutions, are you ready to unleash your Mega Pokémon? How many do you currently have? Dive into the adventure, and don’t forget to share your experiences!
