How to counter Lebanne’s team in Pokemon Legends Z-A

If you’ve just beaten Rogue Mega Froslass, this fight becomes a lot easier. Using the Froslassite, you can Mega Evolve your own Froslass and it’s a good counter to most of Lebanne’s lineup. Being Ice-type, Mega Froslass deals 4x damage to both Noivern and Garchomp and hits Tyrantrum and Dragalge effectively too.

However, Dragalge’s Mega form demands a different approach. Its Poison typing makes it weak to Ground-type attacks, so Pokemon like Excadrill or Krookodile are your best bets to finish the fight.

Keep in mind that Lebanne’s team has strong coverage against Fairy-types, so relying solely on them isn’t ideal. A balanced mix of Ice, Water, and Ground-types will give you enough options to adapt as the battle unfolds.

Strategy to stay ahead

Lebanne’s Dragons are aggressive and cover most of their weaknesses, so don’t expect to breeze through just by matching types. Open with something fast to immediately neutralize Noivern, then switch into durable Pokemon against Tyrantrum and Garchomp.

When Lebanne in Pokemon Legends Z-A brings out Mega Dragalge, play defensively until you find an opening. It’s safer to chip away with physical attacks rather than trade blows directly.

If you’ve charged your Mega Gauge, using it at the right time can turn the tide. Mega Froslass’s speed advantage and access to Ice-type moves make her one of the most reliable answers here.
