How to get Kalos and Kanto Starters

Discover how to obtain the Kanto and Kalos starter Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Learn about Wild Zone 20 and specific side missions to find Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Chespin, Froakie, and Fennekin.

Alright, so you're looking to snag some of those awesome Kanto and Kalos starters in Pokémon Legends: Z-A? It's definitely doable, but you'll need to push through the main story a bit first. The real hotspot for these guys is a place called Wild Zone 20. It's a pretty big area, and you'll likely be spending some time there farming for spawns.

To even get into Wild Zone 20, you've got to progress through the main story. This is how the game unlocks more wild zones for you. So, yeah, it's a bit of a trek into the main story campaign before you can access this particular zone.

Once you're there, you'll have a shot at catching:

• Bulbasaur
• Charmander
• Squirtle

But that's not all! Wild Zone 20 is also packed with other Gen 1 Pokémon like Raichu, Alakazam, Gyarados, and even some of those cool Eevee evolutions – Jolteon, Flareon, and Vaporeon. You might even run into heavy hitters like Gengar and Dragonite. Plus, the other starters for Pokémon Legends: Z-A can also spawn here, making it the ultimate zone if you want to collect them all.

Keep in mind, each of these starters has about a 5% chance to spawn as an Alpha in this zone. So, you could end up with some really impressive catches!

Here's the breakdown for each Kalos starter:

Don't worry if you need a hand with those Froakie or Fennekin missions; we've got guides to help you through them. Hopefully, this gets you the starter Pokémon you've been looking for from these other generations!
