Ampharos Pokémon Legends Z-A is part of the Lumiose Pokédex at #26. Ampharos brings Electric typing into Lumiose and its Special Attack stat is the strongest part of its base spread. Rather than treating Ampharos Pokémon Legends Z-A as another generic Pokédex entry, the useful part is seeing how those pieces work together inside Z-A’s much faster battle system.
This guide keeps the focus on how Ampharos fits into Pokémon Legends: Z-A: its typing, matchup profile, base stats, Z-A move pool and any Mega Evolution that can be verified for the game. For Ampharos Pokémon Legends Z-A, those details matter together because Z-A uses real-time battles instead of the traditional turn structure, making movement, timing and the shape of a Pokémon’s stat line part of the same picture.
Is Ampharos in Pokémon Legends: Z-A?
Yes. Ampharos is in Pokémon Legends: Z-A and is registered as #26 in the Lumiose Pokédex. That places Ampharos directly in the main Lumiose collection rather than making it a Pokémon that only exists outside the game.
Ampharos Pokémon Legends Z-A Type and Weaknesses
Ampharos Pokémon Legends Z-A is Electric. That typing determines which attacks can punish it most heavily and which matchups naturally give it more breathing room.
Ampharos is weak to Ground. Those are the attack types that deal super-effective damage, so they are the clearest threats to account for when Ampharos is on the field.
On the other side of the matchup, Ampharos resists Electric, Flying, and Steel. That gives its typing some matchups where switching or positioning it well can be much safer than simply looking at raw stats.
Ampharos Pokémon Legends Z-A Stats
Ampharos Pokémon Legends Z-A has a base stat total of 510. Its standout base stat is Special Attack at 115, while Speed at 55 is the lowest part of its stat line. That spread gives a much better picture of the Pokémon than the total alone.

For Ampharos, the shape of the stat line matters. Special Attack clearly outweighs Attack, giving its raw offensive spread a special-attack lean. Its Speed sits in the middle of the spread rather than defining the entire Pokémon.
How Ampharos Fits the Pokémon Legends: Z-A Battle System
For Ampharos Pokémon Legends Z-A, the important part is how that stat shape translates into Z-A’s real-time battles. Z-A changes the context around Ampharos because battles happen in real time.
Ampharos Pokémon Legends Z-A Moves
The current structured Z-A record does not expose a reliable game-specific move list for Ampharos, so this guide does not substitute a move list from another Pokémon game.
Can Ampharos Mega Evolve in Pokémon Legends: Z-A?
No Z-A Mega form is currently verified for Ampharos in the structured game data used by this guide. That does not stop Ampharos from being useful in the real-time battle system, but there is no Mega form included here just because the species has unusual forms in another Pokémon title.
Is Ampharos Worth Using in Pokémon Legends: Z-A?
There are concrete reasons to consider Ampharos: a strong 510 base stat total. None of those automatically makes it the best Pokémon for every battle, but they give you real reasons to build around the species rather than judging it by name recognition alone.
The useful question is less whether Ampharos has the biggest number on a spreadsheet and more whether its typing, stat shape and available moves suit the way you want to play. Z-A rewards timing and positioning in a way the traditional turn-based games do not, so two Pokémon with similar totals can still feel very different once their real battle tools are taken into account.
