Pokemon Legends: Z-A Players Criticize Lackluster New Gameplay Mechanic

It’s really annoying in Pokemon Legends: Z-A‘s Ranked Battles when opponents Mega Evolve their Pokemon – it stops your attacks and breaks your target lock. Pokemon games have always struggled with line of sight – older 2D games made it hard to avoid unwanted battles, and in Generation 9, you could easily escape trainer battles by moving around other characters. Now, Pokemon Legends: Z-A has the same issue, and many players (myself included) think it’s a silly problem.
