Pokemon Legends: Z-A DLC Breaks One Of The Series' Oldest Rules
"Mega Dimension will take players to a "Hyperspace" version of Lumiose City with new Pokémon and Mega Evolutions not typically found in the main game. The wild Pokémon in this bizarre place will have "Hyperspace Levels" that exceed the series' typical level-100 cap. And not by just a few levels, either. Some of the Pokémon shown in the trailers are dozens of levels higher than 100. There's a level 164 Galarian Marowak."
"So what is a trainer to do against these superpowered monsters? It seems like Ansha, a new character who debuts in the DLC, is your secret weapon. She and Hoopa create donuts that give your team temporary level boosts so they can venture into Hyperspace and go toe-to-toe with these "hyper strong" Pokémon, but it looks like you'll have to gather berries and other ingredients for them to bake with. It sounds like a roguelike of sorts, with you making multiple runs into Hyperspace."
Mega Dimension DLC transports players to a Hyperspace version of Lumiose City populated by new Pokémon and Mega Evolutions not found in the main game. Wild Pokémon in Hyperspace possess "Hyperspace Levels" that exceed the usual level-100 cap, with some specimens dozens of levels higher, including a level 164 Galarian Marowak. Ansha and Hoopa provide a gameplay solution by creating donuts that temporarily boost team levels, but players must gather berries and other ingredients to bake them. The system encourages multiple runs into Hyperspace and varied donut loadouts, creating a roguelike-like challenge and raising concerns about difficulty shifts from established level conventions.
