Pokémon Legends Z-A Multiplayer Meta is Stale Already: Metagross, Xerneas & Garchomp Dominate!

Описание: Pokémon Legends Z-A multiplayer battles started fun but now feel monotonous with the same meta teams everywhere. Dive into why Metagross, Xerneas, and Garchomp are ruining competitive play in this real-time battle mode.
In Pokémon Legends Z-A, the 4-player multiplayer pits teams of three Pokémon against each other for knockouts in limited time. Early post-launch chaos was exciting, but now everyone runs these three dominant Pokémon due to their versatile typings—Steel/Psychic for Metagross, Fairy for Xerneas, and Dragon/Ground for Garchomp. They counter each other perfectly: Metagross beats Xerneas, Xerneas handles Garchomp, and Garchomp crushes Metagross with Earthquake.
This rock-paper-scissors meta lacks diversity, especially with legendaries like Xerneas available early in ranked battles. Reddit users complain about the homogeneity, and without tiers like official Pokémon competitive play, casual teams get steamrolled. To unlock Mega Stones, you must grind ranked, facing these walls repeatedly—plus cheaters are an issue. But rank loss is forgiving, so you can farm rewards without dropping.
Will the Mega Dimension DLC on December 10 add new Pokémon to shake up the meta? We discuss potential fixes and share tips to counter this stale format in Pokémon Legends Z-A multiplayer.
