If you aim to catch a Zacian with high IVs and a good nature, be sure that you first press X and go into Options, then turn Autosave Off. With Autosave off, you will be able to reroll each time to aim for the best Zacian obtainable.
There will be a wall of text to pass through after completing the battle with the Legendary Pokemon Zacian. Setting your text speed to Fast
will significantly reduce the time required to get through this process.
1. | Save your progress in front of Zacian |
---|---|
2. | Speak with Zacian and initiate battle |
3. | Throw your Master Ball |
4. | Proceed throught the dialogue and finish the event |
5. | Check its stats We recommend Jolly or Adamant! |
Note: After finishing, speaking with Hop deep withing Slumbering Weald will trigger another event.
Zacian's ability Intrepid Sword will allow it to start battle with its Attack stat raised. Obtaining a Zacian with a Jolly or Adamant Nature will make its Attack stat growth rate even better, allowing it to easily overwhelm opponents with its high firepower.
In order to initiate combat with Zacian, you first need to speak with it. This means that no matter how close to it you get, nothing will happen, so if you plan on rerolling for the best Zacian, save your progress as close to Zacian as possible.
Hero of Many Battles | Crowned Sword |

Giving Zacian its signature item Rusted Sword and entering battle will make its form change. When caught, it will not actually be in its transformed state automatically. Since Rusted Sword is a Key Item every player will already have, it will be very simple to change its form to the Crowned Sword version.

Hero of Many Battles: Known as a legendary hero, this Pokémon absorbs metal particles, transforming them into a weapon it uses to battle. Crowned Sword: Now armed with a weapon it used in ancient times, this Pokémon needs only a single strike to fell even Gigantamax Pokémon. |
Hero of Many Battles: This Pokémon has slumbered for many years. Some say it’s Zamazenta’s elder sister—others say the two Pokémon are rivals. Crowned Sword: Able to cut down anything with a single strike, it became known as the Fairy King’s Sword, and it inspired awe in friend and foe alike. |
