How to pass time and change it from day to night in Pokemon Legends: ZA
See those benches?
You can spend time there Pokemon Legends: ZA and darken by interacting with any of the benches scattered around Lumiose City. However, you won't be able to manually change the time and use the benches until you get a bit further into the story (specifically, you have to complete Main Mission 5: The City in the Shadow of Prism Tower.
Once you can move freely before the next rank battle, you can interact with the bench and choose one of two options:
-
Kill some time here
-
Meet your Pokemon
If you choose the first option, you will be asked if you want to hanging out until night or morning (depending on the current time of day). If you choose the latter option, you can see your six-party Pokémon at once, making it the perfect opportunity for photos in photo mode.
Eclipse activates a battle zone where you can face trainers for your rank-up battles.
