Mega Lucario Z officially revealed as the first Z Mega Evolution in new Mega Dimension trailer — Mewtwo's Extra Side Mission Now Available

Ahead of the release of Wave 2 Story Content for Pokémon Legends: Z-A's Mega Dimension DLC next Wednesday December 10th, Mega Lucario Z was officially revealed in a new trailer released on The Official Pokémon YouTube channel. Also announced was the introduction of Mewtwo and its Mega Evolutions to the game in a new Side Mission which players can acquire through Mystery Gift.

Mega Lucario Z and Z Mega Evolutions
According to the update, Mega Lucario Z is the first in a new category of Mega Evolutions called Z Mega Evolutions that are being introduced with the Mega Dimension DLC. Compared to regular Mega Evolution Pokémon, Z Mega Evolutions will have reduced cooldown time for their moves, allowing them to attack more rapidly. This is balanced out by them also using up Mega Power at an exceptionally fast rate, meaning that they'll revert to their standard form quicker.

In contract to the normal Mega Lucario, Mega Lucario Z appears to have more of a defensive focus. In lore, this is described as Mega Lucario Z using its aura to surround its body and cloak itself, as well as being able to shape it into the form of a field. This focus seems a little at odds with Z Mega Evolution Pokémon being positioned as appropriate for fast beatdowns, so Trainers may want to think carefully about how to best use its talents in battle.

The electric energy it stores in its body is equivalent to ten bolts of lightning. Protrusions on its forehead, chest, back, and the backs of its hands are where the electric energy is particularly concentrated. The protrusions steadily emit a pale blue light.
