Speedrun splits for Pokemon Legends Z-A, finishing in 6:33:19. This beat the previous time by 3:20

Back in the top 5 (for now) with a new PB. I've been a bit behind since I can only really fit in one or two runs a week, but I wanted to get a run in today to try out some new stuff. 6:2x will happen soon enough

Holy jealous there's some great names up there. Have fun!

The classic Playstation cover of Final Fantasy IX featuring the partial cast. Garnet, Vivi, Steiner, Zidane and Amarant.

Oh HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to the North American release of Final Fantasy IX, it's been 25 years. Holy mother of Ramuh.

One of the all time greatest.

A screenshot of the credits from Pokémon Legends: Z-A, with a completed Any% speedrun time of 6:26:45. The major characters are doing a communal fist bump.

Happy to have put my hand on the world record, however long it lasts (not long, probably).
Happier to have done it with friends that have supported each other every step of the way.

I think it's pretty funny 90% of the sidequests in Pokemon za will ask you before you battle if you want to, but the cop who's falsely interrogating you just locks you into a fight with no confirmation. Pokemon says acab

Awwwww rats. Well i tried my best! haha!

Speedrun splits of Pokemon Legends: Z-A Any% Glitchless in 6:36:40, beating the old time by 11:23

PB'd yesterday but it was so bad that I didn't wanna post it lol. This one was much better. Lost decent amount of time early game and 2 minutes on one of the Rogues, but overall really pleased with this. Gonna keep pushing it on weekends

eddaket - Twitch Speedrun Practice, then HUGE Race at 11ET

MASSIVE 9 person Legends: Z-A Race happening now! If you've ever wanted to see how the run looks, today would be a good day to check it out!

I’ve had this thought like once a year for the last 20 years lol

Speedrun splits of Pokemon Legends: Z-A Rank F Glitchless in 1:40:45, saving 2:45 over the previous run

If you think Any% is too long, just stop the run sooner!

This seems to be the community's consensus for a "main" category that isn't Any%, and there are some pretty interesting differences in the routing. 1:3x will happen soon

HI I'M THE FINALE RUN FOR AGDQ THIS YEAR AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

SOLVED!

And the finale for #AGDQ2026 is. . .

Pokémon Emerald Pick-My-Main run by @adef.bsky.social!!!!!!!!!!!

My niece is missing. She was last seen in Patterson, NJ on Oct 25th. Please help us find her.

Speedrun splits of Pokemon Legends Z-A: All Colorful Screws in 3:54:30, an 18:54 improvement over the previous run

Funny category. I spent ~30min looking for a screw I forgot, but overall this was a good proof of concept. Excited to see what people might be able to do movement-wise in this

Pokemon party of Heracross, Totodile, Absol, Gengar, Froslass and Phantump

If you told me a month ago that this would be the speedrun squad for PLZA, there's about a 0% chance I would have believed you

This game is wild

🚨 NEW REMIX ALERT: Continuing my #PokemonLegendsZA coverage with Canari's Battle Theme! I really loved what they did with her character, and working on this mix was hilariously fun! ⚡️

Z-A has a ton of potential for speedrunning outside of just Any%, but it’s also so overwhelming. Working on an “All Screws” sort of thing right now, and I also wanna do some stuff with the side quest system

Speedrun splits for Pokemon Legends: Z-A that finish in 6:49:11, 13:36 faster than the previous time

First sub 7 for me and community's first sub 6:50! Still left quite a bit of time out there (some all over, but specifically like 5 minutes in the last hour and a half). Can't do any more runs til next weekend, but someone will beat this soon

Still wish it was shorter lol

Speedrun splits of Pokemon Legends: Z-A Any% Glitchless in 7:04:09, beating the old run by 7:49. 5 splits before the end, the run was 11:26 ahead, meaning sub 7 was on the table

Fumble of the century lmao. Sub 7 soon I promise

Screenshot of the splits at the end of a Pokemon Legends: Z-A Any% Speedrun, finishing in 7:11:58

Good way to finish out the weekend. Why does this game have to be so long?? It's such a fun game and speedrun

Not gonna be able to grind this, but it could be a fun weekend game. Also it's a fantastic race game

I’m about 3/4 way through my first speedrun of PLZA (have to take a break for another commitment) and it’s a damn shame the game is so long. It’s a really fun run, but it’s so hard to fit a run of that length into any schedule

Oh, also I played for like 31 hours and encountered exactly one shiny lol (28 hours in...). How are y'all getting so many lmao

Beat the game last night. Finished all the side missions today. Finished all of the dex that (I think) is possible without trading.

Z-A is an excellent game. There's a few things I might change, and I'm a bit iffy on the speedrun, but as of now it's my favorite Pokemon game on the Switch
