Pokémon Legends Z-A may finally be ready to show off its biggest feature yet—26 brand new Mega Evolutions. While no official confirmation has arrived from Game Freak or Nintendo, all signs point toward a full reveal during the July 22 Pokémon Presents. Given that these showcases only happen once or twice a year, fans are expecting a substantial trailer, ideally five minutes or more, showcasing the new Mega Evolutions and their in-game designs.
Even though leaks have circulated for months, featuring a list of 26 Pokémon set to receive new Mega forms, these are still unconfirmed. Some of them could be swapped out or removed entirely before launch. That uncertainty hasn’t stopped the community from speculating, however—especially since returning Mega Evolutions are already confirmed through past trailers.
26 Leaked Mega Evolutions Spark Major Fan Buzz
Among the leaked list, Feraligatr, Falinks, and Dragonite have received the most attention. Feraligatr is widely considered one of the most requested new Megas, while Falinks has stirred some backlash over its rumored design. A 3D render from Cardinal (based on leak descriptions) hints at how it might look—divisive but unique.
Dragonite’s Mega Evolution is expected to stay close to its base form, focusing more on refinement than drastic change. Other Pokémon like Hydreigon and Haxorus are rumored to receive monstrous, intimidating forms that amplify their existing traits, with fan artists like Bulby Boy already imagining potential concepts.
Until Game Freak drops the official trailer, every detail remains speculative—but excitement continues to grow.
Fan Picks: Pokémon That Deserve a Mega in Z-A
Beyond the leaked list, there’s a long wishlist from fans. One of the most commonly requested is Flygon, often referred to as “the Mega that got away.” Its exclusion from previous games has made it a fan-favorite for a second chance. Another top choice is Luxray, known for its distinct design and strong fanbase from the Sinnoh region.

Some other picks include:
-
Zoroark – A Mega form that leans into its Illusion ability, possibly with shadow effects or partial transformations mid-battle.
-
Noivern – With its sonic theme, fans imagine a Mega design that’s more soundwave-based, with even larger wings and sonic visuals.
-
Raichu – Overshadowed by Pikachu, Raichu remains a fan-favorite. A Mega form could give it glowing electric effects or lightning trails.
-
Arcanine – A classic choice, with many hoping for a part-Dragon typing and the addition of wings or fire-dragon hybrid features.
These ideas are mostly dream scenarios, but with Mega Evolutions making a major return, anything feels possible in Z-A.
New Mega Designs Could Define Pokémon Legends Z-A
Pokémon Legends Z-A has shown promise in early previews, but the upcoming Mega Evolution trailer could be the moment that defines the game’s identity. The right mix of nostalgia and fresh creativity in these designs can give fans a reason to be truly excited. Whether it’s the return of old favorites or bold new concepts, Mega Evolutions are likely to be the spotlight of this month’s presentation. Leaks or not, Pokémon Legends Z-A might be the biggest Mega Evolution comeback in years.
