So what's the deal with Zacian's and Zamazenta's "unarmored" forms? I haven't been keeping up with this thread since the full dex was revealed. Is it like Xerneas where outside of battle they're in like, chill out casual mode?
It seems you can use either form in battle. Their armorless forms are their "Hero of Many Battles" forms, while the armored ones are their "Crowned Sword/Crowned Shield" forms. We're not clear on if there's a stat change involved, but they take on their armored forms when given a certain held item, kind of like Giratina with the Griseous Orb. Those items' effects aren't known, other than the fact that holding it makes them part Steel-type. Without their armor, Zacian is pure Fairy and Zamazenta is pure Fighting.
*Four if you count the box mascots.
Strictly speaking... do we know for sure that the mascots are exclusive?
They made sure to give us a second throwaway Cosmog that we could trade for the opposite mascot in SM, along with duplicates of every version-exclusive UB, and according to one of the leakers...
... the opposite mascot does appear during the post-game story, teaming up with Hop or something like that, but maybe Hop doesn't keep it?
