Genesect is a Bug/Steel-type Pokémon (National Dex #649) with a pseudo-legendary-tier stat total of 600. You can have one built for Legends: Z-A and Sword & Shield, and every copy is generated through the same PKHeX legality engine Pokémon HOME uses on deposit.
Its best stat is Attack at 120, which makes it a slow but heavy-hitting attacker. Attack and Special Attack sit close together, so it can run either a physical or a special set depending on what your team needs. When you order one here you pick the nature, EV spread, IVs and Tera type yourself, so you can build the exact spread the set calls for rather than breeding for it.
Defensively, Genesect takes super-effective damage from Fire at 4×. It is completely immune to Poison. It resists Normal, Grass, Ice, Psychic, Bug, Dragon, Steel, Fairy. Its ability options are Download.
In-game, Genesect has 4 recorded encounter locations across Legends: Z-A (1), Sword & Shield (3) — listed in full below with levels, catchable marks and legal Poké Balls. Note that at least one encounter is shiny-locked in Legends: Z-A, meaning it cannot be found shiny there no matter how long you hunt. A shiny Genesect ordered here is built with a legal PID and Encryption Constant, so it passes the same checks a hunted one does.
