For gamers eager to dive into Pokemon Legends: Z-A, Walmart has brought back its sought-after exclusive bonus. The retailer has restocked its free mystery pin bundle for the Nintendo Switch 2 edition of the game, offering a collectible enamel pin at no extra charge. While supplies of this promotional item are limited, the game itself is priced at just $69, slightly under the standard retail price.
The pin designs are quite charming, adding a nice physical touch to your purchase.
This title marks the second installment in the Pokemon Legends series. If you missed the first game, Pokemon Legends: Arceus from 2022 is still available and highly regarded; you can find physical copies for around $53 at major retailers like Amazon and Walmart.
To enhance your gaming setup, an officially licensed Pikachu Vortex Enhanced Wireless Controller by PowerA is currently on sale at Amazon for only $30, down from its original $60 price. This controller connects seamlessly to both the Nintendo Switch 2 and the original Switch model via Bluetooth.
In other accessory news, PowerA has also just launched a Pokemon Mega Evolutions Edition Advantage Wireless Controller. Priced at $70, this model is notable for being the first third-party wireless controller to include the new C button designed for GameChat functionality. It also incorporates upgraded features such as anti-drift Hall Effect joysticks.
Pokemon Legends: Z-A builds upon its predecessor by transporting players to the Kalos region, the same setting featured in the classic Pokemon X and Y games for the 3DS. The urban environment of Lumiose City provides a dramatic shift from the open wilderness explored in Pokemon Legends: Arceus. Players begin their adventure by choosing one of three starter Pokemon: Chikorita, Totodile, or Tepig. The game retains the simplified catching mechanics introduced in Arceus, allowing you to throw Poke Balls at wild Pokemon without always initiating a battle first.
A significant evolution in this sequel is its completely overhauled battle system. Gone are the traditional turn-based fights; Z-A introduces a strategic real-time combat system. Both you and your partner Pokemon can move freely within a designated combat area. Your success now heavily relies on positioning and well-timed actions, including executing dodges to avoid enemy attacks.
Another major returning feature is the Mega Evolution mechanic, which hasn’t been seen since the 2018 releases of Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu and Eevee. This system temporarily transforms specific partner Pokemon into immensely powerful forms, complete with altered appearances. To trigger a Mega Evolution, you must possess both a Mega Ring and a unique Mega Stone corresponding to that Pokemon species.
Nintendo recently announced a paid downloadable content expansion for the game titled Mega Dimension. This DLC, available now for pre-purchase at $30, is scheduled for release on February 28, 2026. The new storyline focuses heavily on Mega Evolutions and notably features Raichu, a Pokemon that possesses two distinct Mega Evolution forms. Purchasers also receive immediate in-game access to exclusive Raichu-themed Holo-X and Holo-Y Mega Evolution apparel items.
