The announcement of Pokemon Legends: Z-A has unearthed speculation about the never-released Pokemon Z game. After the release of Pokemon X and Pokemon Y, players expected a third installment entitled Pokemon Z to follow.Pokemon Platinum followed the release of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, and at the very beginning of the franchise, Pokemon Yellow was released after Red and Blue. But there was never a Pokemon Z announced. Instead, Game Freak moved on to the Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby remakes and then the new games Pokemon Sun and Moon. While the recently announced Pokemon Legends: Z-A game is not precisely the Pokemon Z fans have been waiting for, it does highlight the legendary Pokemon of the Kalos region that got the least attention in the original two games: Zygarde.
