Mega Evolution is one of the central features of Pokémon Legends: Z-A, allowing you to temporarily make some of your Pokémon larger, stronger, and give them a striking new appearance. These battles rely heavily on your ability to dodge enemy attacks and strategically lead your Pokémon away from harm while choosing the right moves to counter your opponent.

### How to Beat Rogue Mega Slowbro in Pokémon Legends: Z-A
By this point in the game, you might find that your options for this fight are somewhat limited. However, there is one crucial Pokémon that should be available to you: Absol.
Mega Slowbro is weak to Electric, Grass, Bug, Ghost, and Dark-type moves. If you chose Chikorita as your starter, you might be in luck—you may have leveled up your Chikorita and acquired the appropriate Mega Stone to enable Mega Evolution, giving you two solid options to switch between during the fight.
Keep in mind that you don’t necessarily need a Mega-Evolved Pokémon to deal damage to Slowbro, but it certainly helps turn the tide of battle.

### Suggested Move Set for Absol
Equip Absol with the following moves for the best chance at victory:
– Night Slash
– Slash
– Swords Dance (to boost your attack power)
– Shadow Claw (for additional damage output)
Positioning is key during this fight. Many of Slowbro’s attacks will track your movements, and he also uses a whirlpool attack that deals significant area-of-effect damage. Fortunately, this whirlpool attack is well-telegraphed, making it easier to dodge if you stay alert.

### Moves and Tactics to Avoid
Avoid relying on Fire, Water, Ice, Fighting, or Steel types, as Slowbro is strong against these types and will easily shrug off their attacks. Instead, focus on exploiting its weaknesses.
—
### Timing and Strategy
Time your Plus moves carefully. Wait for Slowbro to commit to longer attack animations, such as its big beam attack. These moments provide ample opportunity to unleash charged attacks and deal heavy damage. By capitalizing on these openings, you can efficiently break down Mega Slowbro’s defenses and secure victory.
