Pokemon Legends Z-A has different battling mechanics compared to the mainline series of games. Battles are focused on real-time combat, instead of the usual turn-based mechanics. However, this combat differs depending on whether you battle wild Pokemon or a trainer’s team. So let’s see what those differences are.

How Are Wild Battles Different From Trainer Battles in Pokemon Legends Z-A?
Battling Wild Pokemon in Legends Z-A
Here are the mechanics of battling wild Pokemon in Legends Z-A:
- Similar to the games in the main series, you can run away from a wild Pokemon battle. Usually, your Pokemon needs to be faster than the Pokemon it’s battling. In Legends Z-A, you just need to recall your Pokemon and run away from the attacking Pokemon.
- The wild Pokemon will sometimes target you as well. This will also happen while dealing with Rogue Mega Evolutions.
- It is possible to dodge and sprint while participating in a wild Pokemon battle.
Battling a Trainer’s Pokemon in Legends Z-A
Here’s how a trainer battle differs from a wild battle in Legends Z-A:
- Again, similar to the mainline games, there’s no running from a trainer battle. The battle ends when either all of your or your opponent’s Pokemon have fainted.
- One of your Pokemon has to be on the field at all times in a trainer battle. If you switch out a Pokemon, you will immediately need to switch another in.
- Your Pokemon can dodge attacks as long as you move them around. A Pokemon you have sent out will follow you, so you have to be on your toes in a trainer battle.
- While you can move about in a trainer battle, you are not allowed to dodge or sprint.
- Trainer Pokemon do not target you in a battle.
- However, in the Z-A Royale, you can sneak up on other Trainers and their Pokemon and attack. This gives you a distinct advantage in the upcoming battle.
