We’ve sharing another Pokemon Legends: Z-A location guide, this time for Zygarde.
It’s been over a week since the release of the game, and we assume some of you might be wondering how to catch Zygarde, the game’s titular Legendary Pokemon. As you might expect, Zygarde is the final Legendary Pokemon available in Pokemon Legends: Z-A, and you’ll need to clear the main story in order to access it. It’s a guaranteed capture, though, which means you can use any Poke Ball you want with no chance of failure. It also means you definitely shouldn’t use a Master Ball.

8 years later, why Super Mario Odyssey is still a fantastic 3D platformer
Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan in Features, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
At this point, there aren’t many people who haven’t played Super Mario Odyssey. It first released in late 2017 as one of the Nintendo Switch’s premier first-year titles, and it was quickly met with critical acclaim. The game came during a time when fans felt the series was starting to stagnate. In 2016, you had titles like Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash, Super Mario Run, and Paper Mario: Color Splash – and while most weren’t bad, they all carried that same corporate Mario feeling. Even Super Mario 3D World, which is now widely regarded as a great game, was criticized at the time for its linearity and similarity to Super Mario 3D Land. Super Mario Odyssey was essentially Nintendo’s way of saying that new and fresh ideas were back on the table for the series.
