Its just a trigger event. The expansion is already in the game, people used hacks to activate them.

Wait, the $30 expansion was included in the game since its launch and people are paying to unlock it? Is there any source for this?

From a little bit of googling, Nintendo was indeed breached, which included information about Pokemon Legends: Z-A.

https://www.gamesradar.com/games/po...s-reportedly-shared-online-in-huge-freakleak/

I don't see anything about the expansion being included in the game, itself.

Saber Saber where did you get this information? Are you saying that people have already played the expansion?

The information come from the leaks. There are 2 special events that are already in the game.
Not saying normal people exactly, but "hackers". They just triggered the event as soon as the leaks found the events in the code.

But you said the expansion is already in the game, leading us to believe that the full expansion is included and the DLC "triggers" it.

Are the 2 special events the entire expansion?

And can you give us a link to this information?
 
I'm so confused. Is this the DLC? I can't watch the videos right now, but I thought the DLC was going to release in February.

Edit: it is the DLC…did they move the dates?

I read the description of the DLC because it came with some clothing you get right away if you pre-ordered. I'm almost fucking positive it said that you would get the clothing right away and the DLC in February when it releases.

I think you mean the Diancie event (as well as another event I may not be aware of). That one is indeed already in the game files and we just got it for free today as a side mission triggered when you get the Diancieite by Mystery Gift.

But the actual DLC is definitely not in the game files yet; if it was, we would've gotten story and detailed mega leaks by now.

Its already in the game. No, this expansion is not the actual DLC. I never said that. I never said the DLC triggers either, I dunno where the fuck you get this from my post.

Those are more like triggered events, similar to the ones from old games like G/S, Platinum, etc. The DLCs didnt have any official date from what I remember, might be a place holder.

Exaclty. Both Diance and the other event are in the game, but you can't normally trigger them.

This is all you said originally, which already confused someone in the thread:

No need to swear at me, dude. We're just curious where you got your information from. If you can't provide sources, then it's a bit sus.
 
btw the Nintendo eShop still says that the pre order bonus on the DLC runs until February 28. I just checked

It does seem like they moved the date

I'm not your source guy here neither intended to be, go use google and search pokemon leaks instead of demanding to provide sources.

That date might be just a place holder, not sure at all. Not sure if that ever happened.
 
They are releasing the Mega Dimension DLC expansion pack on December 10th...

Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Mega Dimension

The Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Mega Dimension DLC will be released on Wednesday, December 10, 2025, on the Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch systems.

Venturing into Hyperspace Lumiose

In Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Mega Dimension, Trainers will revisit Lumiose as spatial distortions begin to form around the city. Donut chef Ansha and her companion, the Mythical Pokémon Hoopa, will guide players as they explore the mysterious dimension known as Hyperspace Lumiose. This not-quite Lumiose City is home to newly discovered Mega-Evolved Pokémon and other Pokémon not usually found in Lumiose, some of which can exceed the normal limit of Lv. 100 with hyperspace levels.

Hoopa's powers are awakened when it receives one of Ansha's donuts, transforming the distortions into portals to hyperspace. Ansha uses Berries to create various kinds of donuts that grant different effects in hyperspace, such as powering up your Pokémon. She can also use more potent Hyperspace Berries, which are useful for taking on the high-level Pokémon in Hyperspace Lumiose.

Trainers will be joined by new allies such as Korrina, a successor to a line of Mega Evolution gurus determined to encounter every Mega-Evolved Pokémon. Together with Team MZ, players will explore Hyperspace Lumiose, uncover its secrets, and tackle the strange events befalling Lumiose City.

Newly Discovered Mega-Evolved Pokémon

Mega Chimecho and Mega Baxcalibur will make their debut in Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Mega Dimension.

When Chimecho Mega Evolves, six smaller copies appear and flutter endlessly, even when no wind is blowing. When Chimecho cries, the echoes of its copies overlap and resonate, creating an intense sound-wave attack that can overwhelm any opponent.

Baxcalibur becomes even more formidable thanks to Mega Evolution, generating more ice energy and wielding a back blade that has grown larger and more powerful. With the sheer weight of this blade, it can cleave or smash nearly anything in its path. Players can obtain the Mega Stone needed to evolve Baxcalibur from the Z-A Battle Club as a reward for advancing in online Ranked Battles.[2]

To watch the latest trailer, please visit the official Pokémon YouTube channel.

Extra Side Mission Now Available to Get Mythical Pokémon Diancie in Pokémon Legends: Z-A

Beginning Thursday, November 6,[3] players can claim a Diancite Stone through the Mystery Gift feature[4] in the Pokémon Legends: Z-A base game. This Diancite stone unlocks an opportunity to encounter and catch the Jewel Pokémon Diancie through an extra side mission titled "Shine Bright like a Gemstone."

Once Trainers have claimed their Diancite via Mystery Gift, they can visit the Looker Bureau, where Mimi the Espurr—Emma's partner Pokémon—will take a special interest in the Mega Stone, setting an extra side mission in motion. Completing this mission allows players to add Diancie to their team, then use the Diancite stone to Mega Evolve it into Mega Diancie, unveiling its radiant Mega Evolution in battle.

For more information on Pokémon Legends: Z-A and Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Mega Dimension, please visit the official Pokémon Legends: Z-A website.
