Zygarde will most likely appear as the central Pokemon in Pokemon Legends: Z-A. Read on to learn why Zygarde may feature in the game, learn who is Zygarde, and what was the Legendary Pokemon's role in past games!

Is Zygarde in Pokemon Legends: Z-A?

Likely the Central Pokemon in the Game

Although Zygarde doesn't appear in the Pokemon Legends: Z-A reveal trailer, it's likely that Zygarde will feature as the central character in the game due to the letter Z prominently featured in the logo.

The letter Z on the logo also features a hexagonal pattern similar to Zygarde's Cells, further reinforcing that the Legendary Pokemon may appear in the game!

Who is Zygarde?

Part of the Kalos Legendary Trio

Zygarde is a Legendary Pokemon that first appeared in Pokemon X and Y and is the third member of the Kalos Legendary Trio alongside Xerneas and Yveltal.

Due to all three Pokemon sharing Aura-related Abilities, the Legendary Trio is widely referred to as the Aura Trio by fans.

Zygarde Has Three Forms

Zygarde Forms
Zygarde (10% Forme)	Zygarde (50% Forme)	Zygarde (Complete Forme)

Zygarde has three forms that the Legendary Pokemon can change into depending on the amount of Zygarde Cells it has. These forms have different stats but share the same Abilities.

In Pokemon X and Y, you can change Zygarde into its 10% and 50% form by interacting with the Zygarde Cube.

Zygarde will only turn into its Complete Form if it has the Power Construct Ability once its HP falls below half its maximum.

What was Zygarde's Role in Past Games?

Not Featured in the Story

Although part of the Kalos Trio, Zygarde is notably absent from Pokemon X and Y's story, with its 50% Forme only appearing in Terminus Cave after completing the game.

The Legendary Pokemon does appear as part of a subplot involving its cells in Pokemon Sun and Moon and later Pokemon Ultra Sun and Moon where players can freely switch it between its 10% and 50% formes, though it also doesn't have an impact on the plot of those games.
