Pokemon Legends ZA How to Get Froakie Guide
Finding Froakie in Pokemon Legends ZA takes more effort than most early Pokémon. It’s tied to a side mission that tests your movement skills instead of your battle strength.
How to Get Froakie in Pokemon Legends ZA
You can get Froakie by completing Side Mission 09 called A Challenge from Froakie. It unlocks right after finishing Main Mission 05, The City in the Shadow of Prism Tower. Once side missions appear on your map, check for a blue and white exclamation mark near the Jaune Pokémon Center on North Boulevard in northeast Lumiose City.
Talk to the NPC near the scaffolding to start Froakie’s challenge. You’ll need to beat its parkour times across three rooftop obstacle courses. Each one has ladders, gaps, and narrow beams that test your timing.
Completing Froakie’s Parkour Courses
The first two courses are easy, but the final one can trip you up. After climbing the first ladder, roll across the big gap to reach the next section. Climb the ladder on the right, then cross the narrow beam carefully. Near the end, perform one more roll to clear the last jump and finish before time runs out. Once you’ve beaten Froakie’s time on all three courses, it will join your team automatically.
Froakie’s Level and Nature
Froakie joins at Level 14 and always has the Sassy Nature. That means it gains more Special Defense at the cost of Speed. Its gender can vary, but its Nature remains the same each time. It starts with basic Water-type moves and levels fast into Frogadier with regular training.
Tips for Finishing the Mission
Start the mission during the day for better visibility on the scaffolding
Practice dodge rolls before starting, since missing one causes you to fall
Bring stamina items if you keep missing jumps late in the course
If the side mission doesn’t appear, fast travel away and back to refresh Lumiose
Final Blurb
Catching Froakie in Pokemon Legends ZA isn’t about luck, it’s about precision. Once you clear its rooftop courses, you’ll have the Water starter from Kalos ready for your lineup. Keep training it and you’ll soon have a powerful Greninja on your side.
