Nintendo has officially confirmed that additional Mega Stones will be introduced in the upcoming Mega Dimension DLC for Pokémon Legends: Z-A, expanding the roster of Mega Evolutions available in the game. This DLC is set to launch on December 10, 2025, for Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 systems, bringing new Mega Evolutions and a fresh gameplay experience centered around the concept of Hyperspace Lumiose, a new area within the game world[4].
Mega Stones are special items that allow certain Pokémon to undergo Mega Evolution, a temporary transformation that boosts their stats and often changes their appearance and abilities during battle. Pokémon Legends: Z-A initially launched with a selection of Mega Stones, including the Diancite stone for the Mythical Pokémon Diancie, which became available via Mystery Gift starting November 6, 2025. Players could also obtain the Baxcalibrite Mega Stone by progressing through online Ranked Battles at the Z-A Battle Club[1].
The upcoming Mega Dimension DLC will introduce a significant number of new Mega Stones, enabling more Pokémon to access Mega Evolution. This includes both returning Mega Evolutions from previous Pokémon titles and brand-new Mega Evolutions unique to Legends: Z-A. The DLC promises to add depth to the battle system by allowing trainers to harness the power of these Mega Evolutions in new ways, enhancing strategic options and team-building possibilities[3][4].
The announcement has generated excitement among fans, especially with leaks and previews revealing Mega Evolutions for popular Pokémon such as Mega Dragonite and Mega Lucario, alongside others like Mega Electros and Mega Horlucha. These new Mega Evolutions are expected to be part of a special English-language TCG set releasing in January 2026, indicating a coordinated expansion of the Pokémon franchise across multiple platforms[2].
The setting of Pokémon Legends: Z-A in Lumiose City, a vibrant urban environment undergoing redevelopment to better integrate Pokémon and humans, provides a unique backdrop for these new gameplay features. The Mega Dimension DLC will further explore this setting by introducing Hyperspace Lumiose, a mysterious dimension that ties into the new Mega Evolution mechanics and story elements[4].
In summary, Nintendo’s confirmation of additional Mega Stones coming to Pokémon Legends: Z-A through the Mega Dimension DLC marks a major update that will enrich the game with new Mega Evolutions, expanded battle mechanics, and fresh narrative content. This aligns with Nintendo’s ongoing strategy to keep the Pokémon series dynamic and engaging by blending classic elements like Mega Evolution with innovative gameplay twists and new storylines[1][3][4].
