Catch Legendary Pokémon Mewtwo in Extra Side Mission Available Now in Pokémon Legends: Z-A

Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Mega Dimension
Mega Lucario Z
A newly discovered form of Lucario, Mega Lucario Z was determined to be a Mega Evolution based on how its form changes through exposure to a Mega Stone and its increase in power far outshining that of an average Lucario.
The long fur around Mega Lucario Z’s head and waist, as well as its fan-shaped tail, make it difficult to get a full view of Mega Lucario Z’s powerful movements. In close combat, this can work to visually disorient opponents. Areas of its body, such as the backs of its hands and its shins, have been hardened with steel energy – allowing it to deliver powerful blows by concentrating its strength precisely into these hardened parts.
Category: Aura Pokémon
Type: Fighting/Steel
Height: 4’3″ (1.3 m)
Weight: 108.9 lbs. (49.4 kg)
Z Mega Evolutions, such as Mega Lucario Z, need less time to fire off moves but burn through Mega Power very quickly, making them less suited for long battles but a good option when trying to settle matches as fast as possible.
While Mega Lucario, the Mega Evolution of Lucario, appears in Pokémon Legends: Z-A, the newly discovered Mega Lucario Z will appear in Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Mega Dimension.
