Mega Crystals are both plentiful and easy to spot in Lumiose City. They are clusters of rock-like formations and pink shards, and are described as collections of Mega Energy. These formations are clearly linked to a concerning new phenomenon of Rogue Mega Evolution, and you’re asked to help destroy them when you see them. When you do, you’ll receive some Mega Shards in your inventory, and your Pokemon will get a bit of XP. But while it’s nice to grab some extra XP and clean up the city, that’s not the only reason to collect Mega Shards.
Where to Exchange Mega Shards in Pokemon Legends: Z-A

When you break your first cluster of Mega Shards, your rival will casually remark that some people collect them. But beyond that, it’ll take some time before you know where you can turn them in to get useful items. Rest assured, you can make good use of your Mega Shards when the time comes. I suggest gathering them up as you explore, since they’ll come in handy eventually. To get Mega Shards, just have your Pokemon attack the clusters to break them up. Any move that would deal damage should break up the clusters and gain you a few Mega Shards for your collection.
To exchange Mega Shards, you’ll need to reach a key point in the story. Once you gain access to the Quasartico Inc. building, your Mega Shard collection will come in handy. One of the people at the front desk offers to exchange items for your Mega Shards. The stock includes two key things – Mega Stones to help certain Pokemon Mega Evolve and Experience Candy S to help level your team more quickly.
The Mega Stones in stock will cost 180 Mega Shards each. If you’re all full up on Mega Pokemon, you can also buy Exp. Candy Small for 8 Mega Shards each. This comes in handy if you get a favorite Pokemon later in the game and want to level them up quickly, like I did with my Eevees.
