Pokémon Legends: Z-A continues on the modern trend of Pokémon titles with a huge amount of character customization options, which we’ve explained in full in this guide.
The first big Pokémon launch on Nintendo Switch 2, though it also remains available on the original console, Legends: Z-A follows on from the success of Legends: Arceus and makes a big change to battle mechanics.
There’s also a huge amount of character customization options in Pokémon Legends: Z-A, which we’ve broken down in this guide, including covering details on any gender-locked options.
All Pokémon Legends: Z-A Character Customization Options
Pokémon Legends: Z-A has a wide array of character customization options, giving you control over your full look and physical features, alongside a host of fashion choices.
Initial character customization in the game covers the general set-up, including choosing a gender, hairstyle, skin tone, eye color, and make-up. Similar to Scarlet and Violet, your physical features are not permanent and can be adjusted in future in any way you choose, aside from skin tone.
In addition to flat hair colors that players have become used to, further customization options include color blocking and balayage.
When exploring Lumiose City, plenty of shops are available to purchase new clothes to shake-up your look, while others are unlocked through story progression and side quests.
We’ve listed all of the available character customization options below, split into physical options and cosmetic options.

Is There Gender-Locked Customization in Pokémon Legends: Z-A?
No, there is no customization in Legends: Z-A locked by gender, giving you full freedom in character creation.
Hairstyles are uni-sex, and can be used for either gender, while other customization options like make-up and clothing is also freely available to fit any character. This includes skirts, blouses, and dresses.
This shouldn’t be too surprising, as the change was first made to the franchise with Scarlet and Violet unlocking all clothing and customization options, and should remain the norm for the franchise moving forwards.
