Z-A Battle Club

Pokémon Legends Z-A, unlike the previous Pokémon Legends game, has got a special multiplayer mode. Unlike previous main series titles, this is a different style than just one on one battles. Instead, this is a four player online battle, the Z-A Battle Club

Mechanics

In the Z-A Battle Club, you and three other trainers get put into a small arena and have to battle it out. There are three minutes on the clock and the task is to earn the most amount of points by defeating other opponents in the time alloted. You can only switch your Active Pokémon three times before your Pokémon is knocked out

When your Pokémon faint, the opponent who defeated it will gain a point and you will return to the starting point with Pokémon healed. Items and Mega Power Orbs will appear around the stage to help you to Mega Evolve your Pokémon, as well as have boosts.
