Pok¨Śmon Sun and Moon Z Crystal locations - Find Pikanium Z, Aloraichium Z and more to unlock every Z Move

How to locate every Z Crystal and their respective Z Moves - even exclusives for Snorlaz and Alolan Richu.

Pokémon Sun and Moon Z Crystals are one of the new mechanics introduced into generation seven. Replacing Mega Evolutions from Pokémon X and Y, these are crystals that can be used by a Pokémon for a ultra-powerful 'Z Move'.

You can only perform one Z Move per battle, so choosing which Pokémon and Crystal to use in an encounter is important - but also means you can wipe the floor in random encounters if you so wish.

There are two kinds of Z Crystal in Pokemon Sun and Moon. One set is for every elemental Type in the game, and allows you to replace a move of that Type on a Pokémon with the corresponding Z Move, with strength of that base move impacting how strong the Z Move is. The other type of Z Crystal is for specific individual Pokémon, and replace specific individual moves with a Z-Move.

Each of the fully evolved Starter Pokémon, as well as the likes of Snorlax, Pikachu and Eevee, all have one of these available, and require specific steps to locate outside of the game's story.

Pokémon Sun and Moon Z Crystal locations

The following list contains story-specific Z Crystals first (based on the game's many elemental Types) following by those you can find off the beaten track or through specific quests and steps (which are for specific Pokémon). There are still two Z Crystals - Marshadium Z and Mewnium Z - most likely discovered through datamining that have yet to be located, and we'll update the chart once they have.
