Pokemon Legends Z-A introduces a brand-new real-time combat system for players to indulge in, and there is no better way to experience it than the 1v1 trainer battles. This is emphasized fairly early on in the game during the main mission Escape from the Battle Zone when introduced to the various combat areas that spawn at night in Lumiose City.
Here's how to wrap up this quest in Game Freak's latest Pokemon JRPG. Read on to know more.

Pokemon Legends Z-A Escape from the Battle Zone walkthrough
This mission begins after talking to the player character's rival, which can be either Urbain or Tauni. This will cause the day to turn into night, causing Battle Zones to pop up around Lumiose City. Finding themselves in the middle of one, you must find a way out.
Progress through the Battle Zone

Follow her through the Battle Zone until coming across an unavoidable encounter against the trainer, Brigitte. She will initiate a combat encounter, which you must successfully beat to progress. Perhaps surprisingly, she will have two Pokemon under her belt: Cleffa and Bunnelby.
The former is a Fairy-type, while the latter is Normal-type. Since the Starter Pokemon in Pokemon Legends Z-A are Fire, Water and Grass-types, none will be especially effective against her Pokemon. However, that does not matter much as this is an early-game mission, and as such, her monsters are weak.
Simply cycle through moves one by one while bearing the cooldowns in mind and keep dodging as required, and Brigitte will be defeated in no time. Continue the path towards the exit, after which a cutscene featuring a Floette plays out. From here, the next objective is to reach Hotel Z.
Get to Hotel Z
Fans of the prequel games, Pokemon X & Y for the Nintendo 3DS, will be delighted to meet up with AZ, the three millennia-old former King of Kalos, now peacefully running a hotel with his Eternal Floette. AZ will allow you to rest in his hotel, so grab the Key to Room 202 from him and go to the designated room.
