Pokémon Legends ZA Hacking Issues, New Mega Zeraora DLC, and Ranked Season 3
Here’s everything happening in the world of Pokémon right now.The Pokémon Center just dropped all of their new Holiday 2025 items, and a brand new DLC trailer revealed Mega Zeraora with our first look at its design. The trailer also confirms that Pokémon from the base Legends ZA game appear in the Mega Dimension zones, but we still haven’t seen any major gameplay.Ranked Battles Season 3 begins on November 27 and runs until December 18. Mega Chesnaut and Zygarde will be legal this season, and you can earn Mega Chesnaut by hitting Rank S.A major issue in the community right now is the rising wave of hacking in Pokémon Legends ZA. Reports include Beast Ball animations on Pokémon where Beast Balls don’t exist in the game, alpha legendary Pokémon despite static encounters, real life photos being added to trainer cards, and even impossible move cooldowns like repeated Earthquakes fired seconds apart. Austin John Plays’ recent video brought the issue to the forefront, and it raises serious questions about competitive integrity.We also highlight the Team of the Week, featuring Mega Charizard X from Jon-Luke VGC.Content Creation Gear https://n64josh.com/elgato use code N64JoshFor ad-free episodes, subscribe here. https://anchor.fm/nintendo-power-cast/subscribeConnect with meMy Nintendo Switch Recommendations: http://n64josh.com/amazonDiscord: http://n64josh.com/discord Twitch: https://twitch.com/n64josh Tiktok: https://tiktok.com/n64josh Twitter: https://twitter.com/n64josh
