Pokemon Legends ZA How to Jump Guide

Learning how to jump in Pokemon Legends ZA opens up a whole new layer of exploration around Lumiose City. You’ll finally be able to reach rooftops, grab hidden items, and glide across wide gaps that looked impossible before.

How to Jump in Pokemon Legends ZA

You unlock the ability to jump during Main Mission 15 when your companion takes you to a rooftop and introduces the Roto Glide feature. Once unlocked, it lets you leap between ledges and glide short distances in the air.

To jump, walk off a ledge and press the A button as soon as you start to fall. Timing matters here. If you press too early, nothing happens, but too late and you’ll just drop. A successful press will activate the Roto Glide, giving you a few seconds of air time to reach nearby platforms.

Mastering the Glide Timing

Jumping in Pokemon Legends Z-A is all about rhythm and position. The Roto Glide gives you a quick lift, but control mid-air is limited, so your setup before jumping is what counts. Spend a few minutes practicing from high ledges around central Lumiose rooftops to get used to how far and fast you move.

Useful Tips for Smoother Jumps

  • Start from higher ledges or building edges to get extra glide distance

  • Face your landing point before walking off, since turning mid-air slows you down

  • Tap the A button cleanly instead of holding it, which keeps your jump more stable

  • Use rooftops with plenty of space for practice before trying tighter gaps

Areas That Require Jumping

Some late missions and collectibles can only be reached with precise jumps. Rooftop battles, hidden Mega Shards, and bonus chests often appear in spots that require Roto Glide. If you spot a shiny object or platform just out of reach, it’s usually a hint that jumping is needed.

Final Blurb

Jumping in Pokemon Legends ZA turns exploration into something way more fun. Once you nail the Roto Glide timing, Lumiose City feels like a playground full of shortcuts, secrets, and high-up treasures waiting to be found.
