What, a friend corrodes through the wall using his barely controllable stomach acid to say hi and you won’t give him a high-five?

Here's a look at a ton of new clothing options in Pokémon Legends Z-A!

There's a Solrock sweater, an Eevee paisley jumpsuit, a Koffing hat, a pleated skirt, tights, earrings, the Arthur Morgan, and more. There's also more options listed in the video that the player doesn't pause over.

Couple more screenshots from this recording. The café has a poster with Goomy and coffee beans.

Gyarados can fly up to target crystal growths with multiple attacks.

Houndoom hounding the player directly when there’s no Pokémon between them is pretty intense.

Gastly has changed again! Legends Z-A continues the tweaks to Gastly's appearance, this time finding a middle ground between PLA's intense smog colour and SV's pivot towards a lighter shade similar to the official artwork.
