Guide to Acquiring Mega Stones in Pokémon Legends: Z-A

In Pokémon Legends: Z-A, the reintroduction of Mega Evolutions allows players to significantly enhance their Pokémon’s capabilities. However, the process of Mega Evolving is not as straightforward as one might think; certain conditions must be met, including the acquisition of unique materials. This guide will provide insights into obtaining Mega Stones, essential for unlocking Mega Evolutions.

Mega Stones Available Through Story Progression

Throughout the narrative of Pokémon Legends: Z-A, players will earn certain Mega Stones as they progress. Each starter Pokémon grants a respective Mega Stone when chosen. For instance:

Choosing Totodile rewards you with Feraligite.
Selecting Chikorita gives you Meganiumite.
Opting for Tepig provides Emboarite.

The first Mega Pokémon encountered during the story is Absol, and defeating it will net you Absolite. Additional Mega Stones available through the main story include Slowbronite, Cameruptite, Victreebelite, Beedrillite, Hawluchanite, and Banettite.

Acquiring Mega Stones with Mega Shards

Players can purchase additional Mega Stones by visiting the Quasartico building located in the Magenta District, which is accessible through the main storyline. After gaining access to this location, you will be able to trade Mega Shards for Mega Stones. These shards can be acquired by destroying Mega Shard crystals found scattered throughout Lumiose City.
