Pokémon Legends: Z-A, the latest installment in the acclaimed franchise developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo, is continuing to innovate on the Nintendo Switch platform.
Alongside the anticipated Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, trainers will have access to a special new feature starting December 2.
Through the Mystery Gift system, players can obtain both the Mewtwonite X and Mewtwonite Y stones, unlocking the potential for Mega Evolution with the Legendary Pokémon Mewtwo in both versions of the game. Unlocking Mewtwo’s Mega Evolution and Side Mission Beginning December 2, Pokémon Legends: Z-A and its Nintendo Switch 2 Edition will offer players the opportunity to receive exclusive Mega Stones—Mewtwonite X and Mewtwonite Y—via the Mystery Gift functionality.
These Mega Stones are essential for Mega Evolving Mewtwo into either Mega Mewtwo X or Mega Mewtwo Y.
To access these bonuses, trainers will need to ensure that their Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch 2 system is connected to the internet and that their user profile is linked to a Nintendo Account.
After around one hour of play time, the Mystery Gift feature becomes accessible to claim your rewards. Once the Mewtwonite X and Y stones have been secured from your satchel’s Mega Stones pocket, players can set their sights on a new in-game objective: Mewtwo’s extra side mission.
According to official sources, completing the main storyline in either Pokémon Legends: Z-A or its Switch 2 Edition is required before this mission becomes available.
After meeting this requirement, trainers should visit Lysandre Café in-game.
Here, interaction with systems deep within Lysandre Labs will trigger the special side mission centered around Mewtwo. Successfully finishing Mewtwo’s side mission will allow players to add the Legendary Pokémon to their team.
Additionally, by having Mewtwo hold the appropriate Mega Stone—Mewtwonite X for Mega Mewtwo X or Mewtwonite Y for Mega Mewtwo Y—players can experience Mega Evolution in battle, further enhancing Mewtwo’s formidable power and adaptability. How to Claim Your Mewtwonite Stones and Access the Side Mission Both physical and digital versions of Pokémon Legends: Z-A and the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition support this special distribution event.
The Mystery Gift can be claimed after approximately one hour of gameplay.
Players can confirm receipt of the Mega Stones by checking the Mega Stones pocket in their satchel. Once in possession of the Mewtwonite stones, the next step is to venture to Lysandre Café.
Official announcements specify that certain systems in the deepest areas of Lysandre Labs will react when approached with the Mega Stones, providing entry to the exclusive Mewtwo side mission. Pokémon Legends: Z-A continues Game Freak’s tradition of crafting engaging content that appeals to both veteran fans and newcomers.
The inclusion of Mega Evolution and a special Mewtwo mission highlights Nintendo’s ongoing commitment to supporting both the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 platforms with robust post-launch content. For the best Pokémon experience, ensure your system is up to date and your Nintendo Account is linked before attempting to redeem your Mystery Gift rewards. ©2025 Pokémon.
