In the penultimate mission of Pokémon Legends Z-A, trainers pursue Yveltal, the legendary Destruction Pokémon tied to Kalos’ life-draining energy, following the main story’s conclusion. To finalize this endgame quest, follow these steps.
Yveltal Capture Strategy

After overcoming the battle simulations, Yveltal spawns at the Galerie de la Lune’s rooftop in the Rogue District. This immortal entity regenerates health, requiring strategic Poké Ball usage. Disrupt its assaults by timing throws before attacks complete. Lower its vitality to 30% using standard moves before deploying Ultra Balls for capture success.
Simulated Showdown: Mega Tyranitar
This Rock/Dark hybrid presents the toughest simulator challenge. Prioritize evasion and deploy Mega Falinks for balanced offense/defense. Maintain healing items to counter its devastating strikes.
Simulated Showdown: Mega Hawlucha
Exploit this Flying/Fighting type’s vulnerabilities with Psychic or Fairy attackers. Mega Gardevoir proves particularly effective for rapid takedowns.
Simulated Showdown: Mega Victreebel
Neutralize poison hazards while leveraging Ice or Fire types. Mega Chandelure’s dual STAB moves quickly overwhelm this Grass/Poison hybrid.




Initiate the quest at Nouveau Cafe by consulting Griselle and Grisham, then proceed to Quasartico Inc. in the Magenta District. Vinnie unveils upgraded combat simulators featuring Level 70 Rogue Megas – critical preparation for the Yveltal encounter.
