Pokemon Legends: ZA It's been about two weeks since release and the gameplay loop has split the player base in two. Some fans like it, some hate it. Pokemon Legends: ZA's review bombardment proves it's a polarizing item, to say the least. Among the decisions that have baffled some fans and sparked controversy is the fact that some of the most anticipated new Mega Evolutions are all restricted to three-week ranked seasons and behind a paywall. Because you need an NSO subscription to get it. One of them is Mega Delphox, which is just a few days away.
Pokemon Legends: ZAMega Greninja and Greninjite were rewards for participating in rank battles and rising from Z rank to K rank. Season 1 officially concludes on November 4th at 9:59 PM PST.. With the changes to rank rewards, Mega Delphox and Delphoxite are much easier to obtain and come with nice bonuses as well.
How to Get Pokemon Legendaries: ZA's Delphoxite and Mega Delphox and Why It's Easy
Considering the rewards for reaching each rank in online battles, it is still better to reach A rank before the end of both Seasons 1 and 2. However, the fact that Delphoxite is now tied to S rank and Greninjite can be obtained almost immediately makes long-requested Megas much more accessible. Moreover, Mega Greninja is one of the best Pokemon available in. Pokemon Legends: ZA Ranked Battles will allow fans who didn't have it at the beginning of Season 2 to obtain it very quickly.
Reaching S rank is not difficult and can be achieved even on non-optimal teams. This is as follows: Pokemon Legends: ZA's Ranked Battles include numerous challenges that are easy to complete and award points regardless of your final ranking. These are:
- X Pokemon Loser: You get 10 points every time you kill an opponent's Pokemon in battle.

How to Get Shiny Fennekin in Pokemon Legends: ZA
If you're wondering how to evolve your shiny Fennekin into Delphox before the release of Season 2, there's a pretty easy and effective way to do it. Pokemon Legends: ZA's Wild Zone 18 is the only place in the entire game where Fennekin spawns, and only on roofs where no other Fennekin or other Pokémon can spawn.
