There are 20 Wild Zones in Pokemon Legends Z-A, and this will be a ranking of all of them based on the spawns inside.

Pokemon Legends Z-A introduces the new concept of Wild Zones to the series, and this article will rank them all from best to worst. This comparison will be based on the Pokemon spawning inside and their overall utility throughout the game.
Without further delay, here is a complete ranking of the best Pokemon Legends Z-A Wild Zones based on the Pokemon spawns.
Ranking All the Pokemon Legends Z-A Wild Zones From Best To Worst

Ranking | Wild Zone | Best Pokemon | Reasoning |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Wild Zone 20 | Kalos and Kanto starters, and multiple final evolutions, with many of them being Alpha versions. | Read below. |
2 | Wild Zone 8 | Gible, Drillbur, Krokorok | Gible evolves into Garchomp, while Drillbur does the same for Excadrill. Both are extremely great final evolutions. Krokorok is no slouch either, already being an evolved Pokemon, with another evolution soon. |
3 | Wild Zone 4 | Gastly, Honedge | Both are good Ghost type Pokemon, especially later on after evolving into Gengar and Aegislash. |
4 | Wild Zone 11 | Gyarados, Clawitzer | Getting two fully evolved Pokemon, especially Gyarados is a boon. You can also immediately Mega Evolve this Pokemon immediately afterwards. |
5 | Wild Zone 14 | Excadrill, Lairon, Onix | Steel is a great typing. Excadrill is extremely strong in general, without mentioning the Mega Evolution. Onix can also evolve into Steelix to Mega Evolve. |
6 | Wild Zone 9 | Fletchinder, Kadabra | Fletchinder is a great Fire-Flying type to deal with any Grass/Bug-types. Kadabra is also a great Psychic-type to train this early. |
7 | Wild Zone 6 | Magikarp, Houndour, Buneary | Magikarp is found at around level 18 here, giving you easy access to Gyarados. Houndour also evolves into Houndoom quite early. Lastly, Buneary evolves into Lopunny on just high friendship alone. |
8 | Wild Zone 18 | Fennekin, Bagon, Noivern, Altaria | Bagon evolves into Salamence, and it alongside Altaria can both Mega Evolve. Noivern is also a great glass cannon Pokemon you can use. |
9 | Wild Zone 17 | Chespin, Lampent, Skarmory, Pyroar | Lampent and Chespin evolve into Chandelure and Chesnaught respectively. All four Pokemon can Mega Evolve further to boost their power. |
10 | Wild Zone 16 | Froakie, Starmie, Falinks, Barbaracle | Same as mentioned above. All of the mentioned Pokemon have decent – good Mega Evolutions (combat wise). |
11 | Wild Zone 3 | Litleo, Skiddo, Pikachu | Early on, type coverage will be key, and this Wild Zone has good Fire, Grass and Electric-type Pokemon. Pikachu is also an evolved Pokemon, giving it decent stats for the early game. |
12 | Wild Zone 15 | Larvitar, Beedrill, Haunter | Haunter into Gengar is a good evolution line. The same goes for Larvitar. Beedril is also another decent Bug-type Pokemon with a Mega Evolution. |
13 | Wild Zone 12 | Machoke, Gogoat, Snover | Machoke is a decent Fighting Pokemon to have. Gogoat and Snover are also usable Grass-type Pokemon, albeit nothing special. |
14 | Wild Zone 7 | Kakuna, Roselia | Kakuna will evolve into Beedrill quite quickly. Roselia evolves into Roserade, which is a great attacker. |
15 | Wild Zone 5 | Eelektrike, Pidgeotto | Eelektrike will take some time to evolve, while Pidgeotto is a decent Flying-type to have here. |
16 | Wild Zone 10 | Arbok, Watchog | The final evolution, Poison-type, is one of the only good Pokemon here. Apart from this, the Normal-type Watchog can be a decent addition if you have an empty spot on your team immediately. |
17 | Wild Zone 13 | Pinsir, Heracross, Scyther | The Bug typing is usually underwhelming, and so Heracross and Pinsir are not enough to rank this Wild Zone higher. You can also get Heracross from one of the earliest side missions. |
18 | Wild Zone 19 | Eevee | This Wild Zone unlocks very late into the game, and Eevee can already be obtained in various other locations before you unlock this area. |
19 | Wild Zone 2 | Magikarp, Kakuna | Although Magikarp is a good addition, it takes a while to evolve into Gyarados. So, Kakuna is the only decent pick here. |
20 | Wild Zone 1 | Fletchling, Bunnelby | Fletchling can be found in multiple places as well, and can be replaced if you picked Tepig as your starter, or just caught any Pidgey on the street. Bunnelby is a good Pokemon just due to learning Rock Smash, which can be used on other Normal-types. |
Why Is Wild Zone 20 the Best Wild Zone in Pokemon Legends Z-A?
This is the post-game Wild Zone, and it is for a reason. This Wild Zone can spawn not only the Kanto starters, which you missed out on, but also many final evolution Pokemon. Many of these Pokemon will also be Alpha variants. These reasons will make it the best Wild Zone in Legends Z-A based on Pokemon spawns.
