To receive the Greninjite, players must reach Rank K on the Z-A Battle Club online ranked battle ladder. This Mega Stone is a reward available only for Season 1 ranked battles right now. You cannot receive the Greninjite by progressing through the plot of Legends Z-A or completing any side missions. However, you do get a Froakie pretty early on from side mission 009 A Challenge From Froakie.

The Pokemon Company has stated that the Mega Stone will be redistributed as a reward again in future seasons. So Greninja fans who fear that this is a one-time deal have no reason to worry.

How Long Will the Greninjite Be Available as a Reward for Ranked Battles?

Season 1 of the Z-A Battle Club started on Pokemon Legends Z-A’s release date, October 16, 2025. This season will end on November 5, 2025. So players have three weeks to get their hands on the Greninjite.
