Mega Zeraora: The Thunder Pokémon's New Power
The official announcement of Mega Zeraora has solidified its position as the most anticipated new Mega Evolution.
This Electric-type Mythical Pokémon will be the main attraction in the paid DLC titled "Mega Dimension."
This marks the first time Zeraora has received a Mega Evolution form, a surprise that has sparked excitement among the player community.
Visually, Mega Zeraora retains its original Electric type and is known as the Thunder Pokémon, but with a striking design change.
Its fur is now predominantly black with striking neon blue accents, giving it a sleek and battle-ready look.
These blue markings are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also serve as electric spikes on its forehead, chest, back, and the backs of its hands.
These spikes emit a pale blue glow, symbolizing the immense energy coursing through its body, equivalent to ten lightning bolts.
This aggressive and energetic design reflects the immense power Mega Zeraora possesses, making it one of the most impressive Mega Evolutions.
Mega Zeraora's Stats and Combat Advantages
Mega Zeraora is projected to be one of the fastest and most aggressive Mega Evolutions ever introduced.
Its significant increase in attack stats makes it a serious threat on the battlefield.
Here are the detailed stats for Mega Zeraora:
- HP: 88 (same as base form)
- Attack: 157 (up from 112)
- Defense: 75 (same as base form)
- Sp. Attack: 147 (up from 102)
- Sp. Defense: 80 (same as base form)
- Speed: 153 (up from 143)
With a Speed stat of 153, Mega Zeraora outperforms nearly all other Mega forms, giving it a significant tactical advantage.
Increases to Attack and Sp. Attack also ensure its physical and special attacks are incredibly deadly.
This combination of speed and power makes it a top choice for intense battles, including in Infinite Z-A Royale mode.
How to Get Mega Zeraora and the Mega Dimension DLC
Unlike some previous Mythical Pokémon that were obtained through Mystery Gifts, players will not be able to obtain Mega Zeraora that way.
To unlock the full power of this Thunder Pokémon, players must complete the main storyline of the "Mega Dimension" DLC.
This process is said to be "a bit difficult," requiring players to explore and find it throughout the DLC.
The "Mega Dimension" DLC itself is scheduled for release on December 10, 2025, and is already available for pre-order.
This DLC will not only introduce Mega Zeraora but also expand the base game's story by revealing spatial distortions appearing throughout Lumiose City that Team MZ must investigate.
Furthermore, "Mega Dimension" will introduce a revolutionary feature: the ability for Pokémon to grow beyond level 100 for the first time in the series' history.
This DLC will also introduce other Mega Evolutions, such as Mega Raichu X and Y, as well as Mega Chimecho, adding variety and strategy to players' Pokémon teams.
