The Pokémon Company has officially unveiled the schedule and rewards for Season 7 of Ranked Battles in Pokémon Legends Z-A, bringing new challenges and exclusive Mega Stones to competitive trainers on Nintendo Switch.
Announced via the company's online channels, this latest Ranked Battle season will kick off on February 19, 2026, and conclude on March 12, 2026, offering just over three weeks of high-level online competition for players worldwide. As with previous seasons, participants will compete for rankings and rare in-game rewards, with Season 7 introducing fresh incentives for both new and veteran Pokémon trainers.
According to the official release, players who achieve specified ranks in the competitive ladder will be rewarded with unique Mega Stones, many of which empower popular Pokémon with Mega Evolution capabilities.
These are the Mega Stones and the corresponding rank requirements for this season: - Achieve Rank Y to earn Greninjite - Reach Rank X to unlock Delphoxite - Secure Rank W for Chesnaughtite - Gain Rank V to receive Baxcaliburite - Attain Rank U for Sceptililite - Reach Rank T to get Swampertite - Climb to the top at Rank S for the newly introduced Blazikenite Blazikenite's inclusion as a new reward highlights the ongoing commitment of the Pokémon Company to expanding Mega Evolution options within the Legends Z-A competitive scene.
Additionally, all players attaining Rank E or higher by the end of the season will receive Safari Balls, a coveted item for collectors and competitive teams alike. A notable change for Season 7 is the allowance of one restricted Legendary Pokémon per team.
This adjustment to the team-building rules is expected to influence competitive strategies and may lead to new metagame trends during the season. Pokémon Legends Z-A was developed for the Nintendo Switch and continues to receive robust post-launch support from the Pokémon Company, with regular online updates and special season events.
Ranked Battles remain a central feature of the game, encouraging ongoing player engagement via the Nintendo eShop and maintaining the title’s relevance within the Switch library. The announcement of the Season 7 schedule and its prize pool underscores the Pokémon Company's ongoing commitment to supporting an active competitive scene.
As always, players are encouraged to prepare their teams and strategies ahead of the season’s start for a chance to earn these exclusive rewards and advance in the ranks of Pokémon Legends Z-A’s fiercely competitive environment.
