How To Catch Virizion in Pokemon Legends Z-A Mega Dimension DLC
Virizionis another of the random Legendaries found by exploring Hyperspace Lumiose after players have completed the Main Story of the Pokemon Legends Z-A Mega Dimension DLC.
Players will have to finish the post-game content, including Hyperspace Mission 12 – The Greatest Gift, Hyperspace Mission 13 – A Ruby-Red Legend, and Hyperspace Mission 14- A Sapphire-Blue Legend, to be called by Corbeau once more, and he will explain the Special Survey gimmick, which is basically the end-game content of the DLC.
How to Find Secret TM Vendor in Pokemon Legends Z-A Mega Dimension
The Secret TM Trader in Pokemon Legends Z-A Mega Dimension DLC will offer a lot of new and powerful moves for trainers. Here’s where to find him.
Every 25000 Survey Points, players will be able to talk to Phillipe in the Rust Syndicate Office, to conduct a Special Scan revealing a Special Distortion (5-Stars), which can be a Wild Zone (Green), a Battle Zone (Red), or a Quest Distortion (Yellow). Players are looking for a Yellow Distortion, which can contain any of the non-cover Legendaries.
Once they spot one, save the game at the entrance; it will help reset it over and over until they manage to catch Virizion. And remember to carry a Lvl 100+ Donut, ideally, with Grass Catching Power.
Once inside the Distortion, players will be contacted by Corbeau, who will warn them about the presence of Virizion inside the Distortion. But where is Virizion exactly?
Players need to look for an alley with some Rocks or Sludge blocking the path, then break them using Fighting or Water-type Moves. From there, look for a stair or Holovator to climb to the roof. Now, look around at the triangle formed between the buildings in the area.
Virizion will be grazing around that small patch of grass (inner garden) between the buildings. Players need to be extremely careful not to weaken it completely, or they will miss their chance and will have to repeat the process all over.
Drop inside the triangle and catch it while it’s unaware, or lower its health the traditional way. The important thing is to catch it. If the process fails, then players can retry by resetting the game from their last saved file. That’s why it’s important to save before entering the Distortion and not inside it.
Virizion is a decent Pokemon, with a BST of 550, which is not astounding for a Legendary, but thanks to its access to a wide array of coverage moves, it can be useful as a pivot in difficult battles. Just make sure to train its EVs with the following spread: Atk 252, Speed 252, Def 4, since it’s a Fast Physical Attacker.
For nature, pick Jolly (further enhances Speed), then for moveset use Horn Leech, Swords Dance, Sacred Sword, and Leaf Blade. Alternatively, players can teach it Zen Headbutt to have extra coverage.
