Wartortle Pokémon Legends Z-A is part of the Lumiose Pokédex at #155. Wartortle brings Water typing into Lumiose and its Defense stat is the strongest part of its base spread. Rather than treating Wartortle 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 Wartortle 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 Wartortle 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 Wartortle in Pokémon Legends: Z-A?
Yes. Wartortle is in Pokémon Legends: Z-A and is registered as #155 in the Lumiose Pokédex. That places Wartortle directly in the main Lumiose collection rather than making it a Pokémon that only exists outside the game.
Wartortle Pokémon Legends Z-A Type and Weaknesses
Wartortle Pokémon Legends Z-A is Water. That typing determines which attacks can punish it most heavily and which matchups naturally give it more breathing room.
Wartortle is weak to Electric and Grass. Those are the attack types that deal super-effective damage, so they are the clearest threats to account for when Wartortle is on the field.
On the other side of the matchup, Wartortle resists Fire, Water, Ice, and Steel. That gives its typing some matchups where switching or positioning it well can be much safer than simply looking at raw stats.
Wartortle Pokémon Legends Z-A Stats
Wartortle Pokémon Legends Z-A has a base stat total of 405. Its standout base stat is Defense at 80, while Speed at 58 is the lowest part of its stat line. That spread gives a much better picture of the Pokémon than the total alone.

For Wartortle, the shape of the stat line matters. Its Attack and Special Attack are close enough that the base spread is not dramatically tilted toward only one offensive side. Its Speed sits in the middle of the spread rather than defining the entire Pokémon.
How Wartortle Fits the Pokémon Legends: Z-A Battle System
For Wartortle 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 Wartortle because battles happen in real time.
Wartortle Pokémon Legends Z-A Moves
The current structured Z-A record does not expose a reliable game-specific move list for Wartortle, so this guide does not substitute a move list from another Pokémon game.
Can Wartortle Mega Evolve in Pokémon Legends: Z-A?
No Z-A Mega form is currently verified for Wartortle in the structured game data used by this guide. That does not stop Wartortle 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 Wartortle Worth Using in Pokémon Legends: Z-A?
There are concrete reasons to consider Wartortle: a clear place in the Lumiose Pokédex with a defined typing and stat profile. 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 Wartortle 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.
