[Pokemon ZA] List of things to do after clearing | Summary of elements to play – ゲーム攻略まとめ

Even if you clear the main story and reach the ending of “Pokemon Legends Z-A”, the game is not over.
There is a lot of content that you can enjoy after the story, and there are plenty of things to do, such as completing a Pokemon encyclopedia, capturing legendary Pokemon, and competing against each other.

Below, we have summarized Elements that you can do and continue playing after clearing the game in an easy-to-understand manner.

1. Complete the Pokemon Pokédex

One of the first major goals after clearing the game is Completing the Pokémon Encyclopedia.
In ZA, there are not only regular picture books, but also Mega Evolved Picture Books, and when combined, it is necessary to fill in quite a lot of books.

Some Pokemon only appear after clearing the game
Catch all species that can undergo mega evolution
Register all Pokemon and aim for completion

Achieving this alone will take dozens of hours.

2. Complete all side missions

There are 117 side missions (subquests) that exist separately from the main story, and some can be ordered even after clearing the game.

In side missions

Obtaining different color Pokemon
Special items
Unlocking costumes and hairstyles
Completion is the main focus of the game, as rewards include unlocking costumes and hairstyles.

3. Raise Momiji Research to maximum level

ZA has a task called “Momiji Research”, and you can get level rewards by completing it.
You can also obtain important items by reaching level 50.

Typical play-through elements:

Obtain “Master Ball”
Obtain “Hikaru Omamori”, an item that increases encounter rate of different colors
Training items as research rewards

In order to obtain these items, you will need to steadily complete various requests, battles, and explorations, which will take a considerable amount of time.

4. Capture a legendary Pokemon

After clearing the story, major legendary Pokemon such as Xerneas, Yveltal, and Zygarde will be available for capture. These will not appear unless you complete a special mission that is released after the main mission, so capturing the legend itself becomes a replay element.

5. Exploring Wild Zone 20

After clearing the story, Wild Zone 20 will be opened, where ZA, Kanto, and high-level Pokémon will appear.
This is a special area that you can only go to after clearing it. You can also play by simply looking for rare species and rare items in the area, or by increasing the number of days you explore.

6. Infinite Z-A Royale (The Royale ∞)

After clearing the story, Infinite Z-A Royale, which is an even stronger version of the traditional ZA Royale, will be unlocked.
This is an endless tournament where you can get bonus rewards and rare items by continuing to fight.

You can obtain training items, Heavy Balls, etc. in reward battles
With 15 wins, you can get limited Pokemon and evolution tools such as “Eternal Flower Floette”
You can also exchange special items with the specified number of wins

By continuing to fight, you can deeply enjoy tactics and training.

7. Training/battle reinforcement

Release of Judge function

After clearing the game, the “Judge function” will be unlocked and you can evaluate the Pokemon’s individual value (IV) in detail.
This is an important function in terms of development, and is the first step in creating the strongest team.

EV/IV training

Trainers who master training can enjoy optimizing their Pokémon’s numbers by using battles, tool exchange, and strengthening items.

8. Ranked battle/online battle

In Pokémon ZA, you can enjoy ranked battles with other trainers online.
After clearing the battle environment, more people will participate, which will motivate you to improve your construction and strategy. Building a strong team through ranked battles and aiming for the top of the rankings each season are also popular ways to play.

9. Hikaru Omamori & carefully selected different colors

Playing to aim for “different colors” of Pokemon is also a big standard in ZA as a way to play after clearing the game.
In particular, if you obtain the “Hikaru Omamori”, the encounter rate will greatly increase, and your motivation to aim for the different colored encyclopedia will increase. However, there are opinions in the community that the selection of different colors is “too easy and not very satisfying,” and there are some aspects of the game that are viewed differently.

10. Prepare for DLC and future major additions

The official website also announced future additional content such as “Mega Dimensions” DLC.
Preparations after clearing the game (filling in picture books, training, capturing legends, etc.) will help you enjoy these expansions to the fullest. When DLC comes, the range of end content will expand, so we recommend completing what you can now.

Summary: The real thing comes after clearing

Even after finishing the story in “Pokémon ZA”,

Complete the Pokemon Picture Book
Conquer all side missions
Capturing legendary Pokemon
Sequential battles in Infinite Z-A Royale
Development/online battle
Different colors/ultimate training

There is a lot of content that continues to be played, such as

. There is also a long-term goal of preparing for DLC and future additional content, and there is even a possibility that the play time after clearing the game will be longer than the main story.

Please explore the world of ZA at your own pace, as it is “not over yet.”
