Overview

  • The Pokémon Company debuted the reveal in a horror‑style video titled “The Case of the Sweet Scent Incident” on its official channels.
  • Footage shows a much larger, sac‑like Mega Victreebel that bounces and spews purple sludge, with vines wrapped around its throat to contain its corrosive acid.
  • Mega Victreebel joins the previously confirmed Mega Dragonite as Mega Evolution returns to mainline battles in Legends: Z‑A.
  • Pokémon Legends: Z‑A launches on October 16, 2025 for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, with an optional upgrade pack to the Switch 2 edition offering higher resolution and improved frame rates.
  • The company has detailed a four‑player Z‑A Battle Club multiplayer mode, and hands‑on previews describe real‑time combat with integrated Mega mechanics.
