What are you doing in the game now?

(4 pages)

Amore, Aug 7: I just got a wonderful surprise - tried to throw my Oshawott through the hole in the end of Oreburrow Tunnel because I thought it would be funny to hear it (and wanted to see if it would echo incorrectly), only for it to bounce back and demolish it!...

Question

Mass outbreak

Nah, Aug 7: I'm pretty sure that one of the updates made it no longer possible to shiny hunt this way. You'll probably want to look up other methods to shiny hunt in PLA.

Research Tasks

Amore, Aug 4: I'm attempting the same thing - evolving my first Eevee into an Umbreon was quite demoralising, I think I have to use 80pp on it to get the move ones. I believe that you have to capture multiple of the flying Gyarados at some point, so that'll...

Hisuian starters

Squirtkipfan01, Jul 16: I personally thought they all looked fine and will even admit that hisuian decidueye looks the coolest. I think typhlosions looks pretty dull though

Question

Can't Get Shiny Charm

_confused_piplup_, Jul 10: Well, just to make this clear for everyone that needs help with the shiny charm in PLA. Like in every game, you need to complete the PokéDex. To do that, you need to get the level 10 for each pokemon in the Hisuian Pokedex (till 242).

Battle visuals analysis in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Absence of abilities

_confused_piplup_, Jul 10: Well, all the replies were really interesting. I also didn't know much about this: Don't you think Hisuian Zoroark with Illusion and its typing is a little OP?

TwilightBlade, Jun 27: So far I have almost a box of shiny Pokemon, with my latest being a Turtwig. The only alpha shiny I've found is a Kricketune. I found a shiny Yanma and Kricketot randomly (no outbreak). I have evolved most of them along the way. I primarily use...

Question

Do you like the new EL (Effort Level) System? Should it be in future games?

Palamon, Jun 15: Yeah, I thought it was a cool concept. Removes all the math and the need to build a "perfect pokemon". But, I'm sure they aren't going to get rid of the ev iv system, honestly. This was probably just for Legends only.

Who is your "catcher"?

Do you like the changes made to status effects?

giradialkia, May 27: I love the changes made to the status effects! I play pretty casually on Showdown now and again, and the absolute bane of my life has been everyone using Amoongus with Spore. I know Sleep has been a part of the series forever, but I much prefer...

Question

Where do I go to buy Legends Arceus cartridge that is already beaten?

_confused_piplup_, May 13: Hello! Unfortunately, there is no actual way to buy a copy with the game finished, because the save data of the game are stored on the console itself and not on the cartridge.
