All Pokémon Legends: Z-A Wild Zones & Pokémon Spawn Locations, Listed

Pokémon Legends: Z-A has hundreds of Pokémon scattered around Lumiose City to catch, which can be a daunting task, but we’re here to help with details of all the Wild Zones and Pokémon Spawn locations.

As has always been the case in the Pokémon franchise, Pokémon have different locations across the map, some of which can only be found in very specific zones, and hunting them down to complete your Pokédex and tick off Mable’s Research Tasks will take some time.

If you’re missing a few Pokémon from your collection and want to know where to get them, or are on the hunt for a specific Pokémon spawn, we’ve got all the Wild Zones in Pokémon Legends: Z-A detailed here.
