Pokemon Legends: Arceus - Complete Guide To Research Tasks

Completing the Pokedex in Pokemon Legends: Arceus is so much more involved than before.

Quick Links

What are research tasks, the nuances of completing research tasks, submitting reports and raising your star rank, research levels and requests.

Professor Oak wanted young trainers to catch 150 Pokemon and call it a day. Professor Rowan, a real charmer, didn't mind if you simply looked at them. And Professor Juniper, well, she pretty much did what the rest of them did, but at least she was funny.

Everything's gone and changed in Pokemon Legends: Arceus . No one's going to be satisfied with a simple catch, let alone a cozy glance from afar. Research Tasks form one of this game's core gameplay pillars, and without a solid understanding of just much more complex Hisui's Pokedex is, new players will soon find themselves as overwhelmed as the Survey Corps prior to a certain fortuitous fall from the sky.

Continuing the forced references to past games, think about all the data that suddenly pops into your previous Pokedexes. You catch one Abra, and all of a sudden, its information page is a veritable wellspring of information. There's a trivia bit and plenty more.

This makes sense. After all, most of the time you're not actually the first person to encounter a particular species of Pokemon. Your Pokedex already has some behind-the-scenes scoops on Phantump's disturbing nocturnal activities — it simply won't show up until you've caught one.

In Pokemon Legends: Arceus, you are a true pioneer . Sure, the player character isn't necessarily the very first person to lay eyes on Hisui's fauna, but they aren't far off from it. People are generally afraid of Pokemon here, so your Pokedex is a legitimately blank slate this time around.

That's where Research Tasks come in. First contact with a species of Pokemon adds a page to the book — a real book, mind you, not some gadget — and that page will task you with several assignments related to each and every Pokemon there is.

Raising the Research Level for every Pokemon's page is a matter of completing the page's Research Tasks. It's straightforward in theory; but in practice, it can be a challenge.

Take Shinx's Research Tasks page, for example. Catching and battling a specified number of them is time-consuming, but a broad enough request that you won't need to pay a ton of attention while you're doing it. But what about the need to see one use Bite up to 25 times? Waiting for wild Shinx (Shinxes? Shinxi?) to use that attack can be an exercise in frustration, given that enemy Pokemon tend to hit a fair bit harder in this game than past entries.

On the other hand, if you'll be catching and evolving some lovely little lions anyway, and given that they learn Bite at an early level, why not spam it against weak prey until you're finished? The game rewards outside-the-box thinking like this. In this case, it didn't matter that the Shinx performing the attack is yours. The people of Hisui are just that fresh to seeing pretty much anything of the sort.

This hardly scratches the surface of some of Pokemon Legends: Arceus' most obscure Research Tasks. For another early-game example, one of Geodude's Research Tasks involves watching them leap out of ore deposits a set amount of times. The key here is to keep an eye out for rustling ore deposits. No, it's not the game's uneven graphics playing a trick on you. That's a Geodude doing exactly what you need it to do.

Your primitive Pokedex won't magically reward you for completing Research Tasks. Instead, you must speak with Professor Laventon at the conclusion of survey expeditions . (A survey expedition is a fancy term for every time you venture out into one of Hisui's regions and have some fun for a bit.)

Laventon calculates your achievements if you take a sec to chat him up at camp. These achievements earn you Research Points , which must reach predetermined totals before Laventon shares the good news that you're due for a promotion.

Go let Captain Cyllene know the good news and your Star Rank will rise accordingly. Among other things, your Star Rank dictates how many of Hisui's five main regions you can survey, so it will feel like a "level gate" if you're not proactive throughout your journey.

Every Pokedex page features what is called a Research Level at its bottom-right corner. This ranges from 1 to 10, and the level rises as you fulfill more Research Tasks. There's an interesting — and appreciated — wrinkle in all this. You do not need to complete every Research Task to elevate a page's Research Level to 10 .

This is big news because 10 counts as completing the page. Many of the game's sidequests involve climbing to Research Level 10 . Take Marli, for example. She wants to see an adorable Starly. Who wouldn't? Marli also wants to know a bunch of things about Starly. You can finish Marli's sidequest (known as Requests in Legends: Arceus) by getting Starly's Pokedex page to 10.

Having said this, there are reasons to strive for truly completing each page, as in surpassing the conditions for Research Level 10 and doing absolutely every Research Task. The likelihood of encountering the Shiny version of a Pokemon increases when that Pokemon's page is entirely maxed out. A huge boon for all those Shiny hunters of the world, and still pretty cool even to folks whose goals are not so lofty as to pluck every alternate color scheme pal from the planet.

Research task (Legends: Arceus)

Research tasks (Japanese: 図鑑タスク encyclopedia task ) are goals set by Professor Laventon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus . Each Pokémon has a different array of tasks specific to them. This is an exclusive feature for the Hisui Pokédex .

Each research task goal met grants research levels and research points. The player must make a survey report to Professor Laventon at a base camp in order to receive credit for their progress. If the player has unreported progress, they will not be able to return to Jubilife Village .

Note: The research points counter is capped at 99,999, even though there are a total of 125,200 points available. Upon reaching this cap, the counter in the Pokédex Progress Report screen will no longer be dynamically incremented, but a breakdown of the points that would be added, along with the audio for the latter, remains.

• 1 Research level
• 2 Research points
• 3 List of research tasks
• 4 In other languages

Research level

Each Pokémon has an associated research level. Until a Pokémon has been caught, its research level is 0. Meeting a research task goal increases that Pokémon's research level. (Goals can accumulate before a Pokémon is caught and will become valid after it is caught.) Most goals increase the Pokémon's research level by 1, but any goals marked by two upward-pointing arrows increase the research level by 2. Arceus is a special case, having only one research task goal that grants all 10 research levels at once.

The maximum research level for Pokémon is 10. When this is reached, the research level will be preceded by "Complete!" If all goals are completed, this becomes "Perfect!" Reaching complete or perfect research will increase the chances of finding that Pokémon as a Shiny Pokémon .

When Arceus and all non- Mythical species have reached research level 10, Cyllene will give the player the Shiny Charm .

A Pokémon's Pokédex page is also slowly filled out as its research level increases.

Research points

Research points are required to increase the player's rank in the Galaxy Expedition Team . Most tasks grant 10 points per goal, but tasks marked by two upward-pointing arrows give 20 points. Arceus is a special case, having only one research task that grants 100 research points at once.

Reaching complete research (research level 10) for any Pokémon will grant a bonus 100 research points.

List of research tasks

Any task with a point value of more than 10 is marked with two upward-pointing arrows in the Pokédex. The number of research levels that a task grants is effectively equal to points / 10 .

The task "Number of different forms you've obtained" applies to both regional forms and gender differences , but does not count other different forms separately (such as Cherrim or Shaymin 's forms), nor Shiny or alpha Pokémon separately.

The task "Number you've evolved" applies both to evolving from and to that species. For example, evolving a Rowlet into a Dartrix and then into a Decidueye will count twice towards Dartrix's evolution task.

The task "Times you’ve seen it use [move]" requires seeing the move used in battle, whether from a wild Pokémon or a Trainer 's Pokémon, including the player's. Moves that miss do not count.

Eighteen different species have research tasks that are tied to completing a request involving that Pokémon. Before the request is completed, the task count will read "Method unknown". After completing the request, the count will be replaced with a checked off "1".

Research Tasks in Pokémon Legends: Arceus explained

To complete a Pokédex entry in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, you need to complete enough Research Tasks for that Pokémon species until you've reached Research Level 10.

Each Pokémon has a dedicated Research Task list and these tasks can be anything from how many you've caught, witnessing specific moves in battle or evolving it. Certain Pokémon also have Research Tasks tied to Requests , such as investigating whether Drifloon truly plays with children.

Some Research Tasks have multiple stages, which allow you to increase an entry's Research Level by repeating the same activity. A common example of this is the 'Number Caught' task that, for some Pokémon, can increase its Research Level at least five times.

You can check a Pokémon's Research Tasks by visiting their page in your Pokédex and pressing Down. This brings up a list of all their associated tasks and your progress with them. A Pokémon's Research Tasks can also be accessed by focusing on it in the wild and pressing Down.

Your current Research Level for this Pokémon can also be found at the bottom of their entry.

During the Pokédex Progress Report at the end of every survey, you'll review which Pokédex entries you've updated or finished, along with how many Research Tasks you've completed.

Our Pokémon Legends Arceus walkthrough will help you pick a starter Pokémon and win the Kleavor boss fight . You’re also tasked with filling the Hisui Pokédex by obtaining new evolutions like Kleavor by evolving Scyther , Wyrdeer by evolving Stantler , Sneasler by evolving Hisui Sneasel and Overquil by evolving Hisui Qwilfish . There’s a host of new evolution methods , including ones for the Eevee evolutions . Take the time to complete Requests too, such as The Sea’s Legend , Wurmple’s Evolved! and finding the Wisp locations . Don’t forget to track down every Unown location too.

How to earn Pokémon Research Points in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Pokémon Research Points are earned by completing both Research Tasks and full Pokédex entries in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. In turn, these points are used to increase your Star Rank within the Galaxy Expedition Team.

Your Pokémon Research Points are tallied during your Pokédex Progress Review, which occurs when you finish a survey out in the wild. Here you'll learn how many points you've earned during the survey and how close you are to reaching the next Star Rank.

The front of your Pokédex also tracks how many Pokémon Research Points you've earned so far and includes a progress bar for your next Star Rank.

Good luck completing Research Tasks in Pokémon Legends: Arceus!

Getting to work on research tasks.

Getting to Work on Research Tasks is the fourth Main Mission in Pokemon Legends: Arceus. The Getting to Work on Research Tasks walkthrough includes tips for story summaries, and more to help you on your journey in Pokemon Legends: Arceus.

Getting to Work on Research Tasks Locations

The mission Getting to Work on Research Tasks will have you travel through the following area. Click on them to learn more about them, like the Pokemon that spawn there:

• Obsidian Fieldlands

Leave Jubilife Village

The start of this mission will see you heading out to the Fieldlands Camp with Professor Laventon . As you go to leave Jubilife Village , you’ll be spoken to by Beauregard who will have a request.

Whenever someone has a task for you, they’ll have a request icon (a small marker) above them. Completing these requests will see you receive rewards.

As these requests are optional, here you can either head to the Obsidian Fieldlands to speak to Professor Laventon about research tasks, or speak to Beauregard to unlock your first request Wurmple Can Evolve .

Go to the Fieldlands Camp

Head out to Obsidian Fieldlands and speak to Professor Laventon . He’ll explain that a number of research tasks need to be carried out to complete the Pokedex .

Each Pokemon will have a number and variety of tasks for you to complete. When you open the Pokedex , press the Down Button to see which Pokemon have been registered and what research tasks are available.

If you’re in the field, you can check these tasks instantly by pressing the ZL Button to focus on a Pokemon, then the Down Button to open the Pokedex to the specific page.

Follow Akari/Rei

Akari or Rei will begin by showing you how to Dodge attacks. Press Y to do this. Follow Akari or Rei and they'll cover the basics of completing research tasks.

Here you’ll be able to try out focusing and opening the Pokedex page to the tasks for the Bidoof in front of you.

When you’re ready, catch up with Akari or Rei and open the Pokedex for the research tasks on a Starly . Here you’ll have a chance to catch up on some of the research tasks already available. Remember to crouch when approaching a Starly by pressing the B Button.

When you’re ready, catch up with Akari or Rei again to spot your first Buizel . This is another Pokemon you’ll have to fight before you can catch it.

Taking Damage in a Fight

If you take too much damage when you fight, you’ll blackout. When the screen turns red, you’re in danger!

Here you’ll learn that to complete some research tasks, you’ll need to see a Pokemon perform certain moves in battle. Approach the Buizel and throw out your Pokemon partner to begin your fight.

When you’re finished, catch up with Akari or Rei again. They'll reward you with a Crafting Kit for completing the challenges so far. This will allow you to make items even if there’s no workbench around, using the materials in your satchel. They’ll also give you the recipe for crafting Potions .

Checking Your Pokedex

You’ll be able to check the cover of your Pokedex to see when you have tasks that can be reported. Head back to Professor Laventon to submit your survey reports. This will reward you with money. Completing this research also raises the research levels of each Pokemon.

Research Levels

When you get a research level to level 10 for a Pokemon, you’ll have completed all available tasks and acquired all the information you can on this Pokemon species. Completing these tasks also gives you Pokemon research points which helps you rank up in the Galaxy Expedition Team.

You should work your way through the specific Starly and Bidoof tasks if you haven’t already done so, and report your findings to Professor Laventon to move up the ranks. When this is complete, you’ll head back to Jubilife Village .

Report back to Captain Cyllene to let her know you’ve ranked up. You’ll obtain the rank of First Star , which will also allow you to use Heavy Balls (and obtain the recipe), and for Pokemon up to Level 20 to obey you in battle. You’ll also receive the recipe for crafting Revives .

This will conclude the fourth mission and unlock the fifth, A Request from Mai

Pokemon Legends: Arceus - Hardest Research Tasks & How to Complete Them

Finishing the Pokedex in Pokemon Legends: Arceus involves doing Research Tasks, so here’s some advice on completing the more challenging ones.

Quick Links

Cherrim's research tasks, strong style moves with spiritomb, catching pokemon with multiple forms (rotom), catching all 28 unown, feed snorlax 50 times, see magikarp use splash 100 times, space-time distortion pokemon, completing a pokemon's entry vs. completing all research tasks.

Pokemon Legends: Arceus does away with the old Pokedex formula by requiring trainers to complete a list of tasks just to unlock a Pokemon's Pokedex entry. When players catch a wild Pokemon, it does not automatically fill out their entry like in previous Pokemon games such as Sword & Shield . By going into Pokemon Legends: Arceus ' Pokedex, players can view Research Tasks for each species by tapping the A button.

A Pokemon's entry will unlock once its Research Level reaches 10. There are usually various Tasks per Pokemon, such as "Number caught" and "Times you've seen it use [move]," and these all add "experience" to a trainer's Research Level.

Common Pokemon such as Bidoof have simple Tasks that can be completed in one sitting, while a Pokemon like Spiritomb will take longer due to their limited in-game availability. It's not required to max out every Research Task, but if players are going for 100% completion, they'll have some work to do. The following are just a few Research Tasks that may give players some trouble.

RELATED: Pokemon Legends: Arceus - The 5 Best Grass-Type Pokemon (& Where to Find Them)

Players will first hear of Cherrim in Pokemon Legends: Arceus when they go to accept the request "To Bloom or Not to Bloom" at the Fields in Jubilife Village. I

t's quickly revealed that Cherrim is one of the toughest Pokemon to find - at least in the beginning. According to Cherrim's Pokedex, it can be found in shaking trees within The Heartwood during morning and daytime, but players also have a chance of getting its pre-evolved form, Cherubi, instead.

Cherrim has the following Research Tasks:

• Number caught (15 total)
• Number caught during daylight hours (10 total)
• Number defeated (5 total)
• Times you've seen it use Petal Dance (40 total)
• Times you've seen it us an agile style move (15 total)
• Number you've seen leap out of tress (15 total)

To complete the Cherrim Request , players only need to get Cherrim's Research level to 10 and unlock its entry. Getting a Perfect entry is the hard part.

Cherrim's appearance rate isn't too high in Obsidian Fieldlands, but it will start appearing more in Coronet Highlands (Fabled Spring) and Crimson Mirelands (southwest of Gapejaw Bog; the tree by the lake).

Look for shaking trees during the day and keep trying until Research Task 2 and Task 6 are completed. This way, it'll be easier to knock out three of its hardest Research Tasks at once.

If Cherrim isn't appearing, return to Jubilife Village and respawn in whichever region has Cherrim.

Spiritomb is tricky because it's locked behind the Request "Eerie Apparitions in the Night." This involves finding all 107 wisps scattered around Hisui before Spiritomb starts "spawning" in the Crimson Mirelands near the Shrouded Ruins at night.

Once Spiritomb has been caught, his Research Tasks are quite easy to fill out since they're based around seeing it use specific Moves 40 times.

The most tedious Spiritomb Research Task is "See it use strong style move," with the highest objective at 70. Using a strong or agile style move will cost 2PP instead of 1PP.

The best way to complete this Research Task is to have Spiritomb battle lower-leveled Pokemon and defeat them with strong style moves.

Keep plenty of Max Ethers and Max Elixirs on hand to restore Spiritomb's moves without having to rush back to a camp.

This strategy also applies to Pokemon with similar Research Tasks. For example, one of Lucario's Research Tasks requires seeing it use Aura Sphere 70 times in battle.

Since the fourth generation of Pokemon, some species have been given physical differences depending on their gender. Any Pokemon that looks different as a male or female will have a Research Task called "Number of different forms you've obtained."

Pokemon with a 50/50 gender ratio like Pikachu means this Research Task can be completed very quickly. Others with uneven gender ratios (such as Eevee) may take some time due to their rarity.

In addition, there are Pokemon with different forms such as Rotom and the Forces of Nature (Landorus, Thundurus, Tornadus, and Enamorus). Rotom's in particular is not only time-consuming but can be expensive.

Rotom has six objectives for its "different forms" Research Task. Unfortunately, the only way to get the appliances that change Rotom's form is by buying them from the Ginter of the Ginkgo Guild.

Rotom's appliances are randomized daily and get more expensive with each purchase. The final appliance will cost as much as 100,000. The best way to get Rotom's forms is by saving up on money and crafting items instead of buying them at Jubilife Village's item shop.

Additionally, space-time distortions can drop Star Shards and Comet Shards, which can be sold for a lot of money at a general store.

RELATED: Pokemon Legends: Arceus - How to Catch the Flying Gyarados

Players will quickly notice that Unown does not have more than one Research Task. By catching all 28 forms of Unown, its Pokedex entry will be unlocked, and it will be marked with Perfect.

There are other bonuses with finding all Unown such as being able to catch them at Solaceon Ruins and potentially shiny hunt them.

Catching Unown is easy since their catch rate has been changed to 100% for Legends: Arceus . Finding them is the difficult part. The hints in the Unown Research Notes are all written in Unown alphabet, and some hints aren't very specific. Unfortunately, players are going to have to search every corner of Hisui if they want this Pokemon's entry completed.

This Research Task would be almost silly if it weren't for such a high objective marker. There's an Alpha Snorlax in the Obisidian Fieldlands that can be distracted with all types of food. However, given the abundance of Oran Berry trees in the Fieldlands, the best strategy is to throw Oran Berries until Snorlax has eaten 50 of them just to complete this Research Task.

Remember when feeding wild Pokemon to wait for it to finish eating before tossing another Berry/Food item. Bait will perish if it remains untouched for too long. Although players can find regular-sized Snorlax in space-time distortions , it's better to just feed the Alpha Snorlax since it's very easy to be ganged up on by other Pokemon in space-time distortions.

Magikarp is well-known for being a useless Pokemon that evolves into the much stronger Gyarados at level 20. As ridiculous as Snorlax's Research Task may be, Magikarp takes it up a notch by needing to be seen using the move Splash 100 times.

Fortunately, Magikarp doesn't have any damage dealing moves, so the chance of it using another move is impossible until it runs out of PP. However, watching Magikarp flop around uselessly is a boring Research Task despite its simplicity.

The best strategy is to swim out to the Magikarp in the river between Grueling Grove and Horseshoe Plains in the Obsidian Fieldlands. There should be several Magikarp to battle. After throwing a Pokemon at it, use a move that deals no damage (such as Swords Dance) to stall until Magikarp burns through its Splash move. Then, defeat it and move on to the next Magikarp.

Alternatively, players can always catch a Magikarp themselves and have it battle another Magikarp. Neither side will be dealing any damage, but at least the Splash objective will go up a little quicker.

Some Pokemon that aren't native to Hisui will appear in space-time distortions. To trigger a space-time distortion, players just need to be in one region for more than five minutes. When a distortion appears, there will be a notification at the top of the screen and a space-time distortion icon on the map.

Pokemon such as Porygon and Cranidos will only appear in distortions , and unfortunately, their Research Tasks require catching more than one. These Pokemon have Research Tasks that require trainers to catch 3 and 5 large specimens, respectively. There's no strategy to make larger-sized Pokemon appear, so it's a matter of trial and error when dealing with space-time distortion exclusive Pokemon.

RELATED: Pokemon Legends: Arceus - The 5 Best Water-Type Pokemon (& Where to Find Them)

When a player has completed enough Research Tasks, their Research Level will continue to climb. At 10, they'll be able to view their entry. Completing all Pokemon's entries in the Pokedex is the only way to get the Shiny Charm in Pokemon Legends: Arceus .

However, if players go out of their way to get a Perfect Entry, then the chances of encountering a Shiny Pokemon of that particular Pokemon increase.

Combine this with the Shiny Charm, and it could make shiny hunting very easy. Shiny Pokemon tend to crop up more in mass outbreaks , so if there's a Pokemon that players really want, it's recommended to complete all of its Research Tasks first.

Pokemon Legends: Arceus is available now on Nintendo Switch.

Coronet Highlands

Cobalt coastlands, crimson mirelands, obsidian fieldlands, precautions when filling in the research tasks, some pre-evolution tasks are not filled after evolution.

When Pokemon is evolved, the post-evolved Pokemon Pokedex will be applied, and tasks before evolution will not be be accomplished using that evolved Pokemon . If you haven't captured a lot of pre-evolved Pokemon, it is recommended to fill in the tasks of the pre-evolved Pokemon before evolving.

The Capture Task Is Filled Even With Trading

If you Trade Pokemon with another person, Pokemon received will be registered as captured. If you have an exchange partner, you can fill in the tasks of Pokemon that are difficult to catch just by trading multiple times .

Evolution Also Fills the Capture Task

Even if you evolve a Pokemon, the task of capturing the evolved Pokemon will be filled as if it was captured. If it is difficult to capture Pokemon after evolution, it is also an effective means to prepare before evolution and evolve them all together to fill the task .

Research Tasks In Pokemon Legend: Arceus Explained

Gamers have quickly discovered that there's no shortage of things to do in "Pokémon Legends: Arceus". Be it catching rare shiny Pokémon or riding a select few around , "Arceus" has reinvented the "Pokémon" formula in some majorly exciting ways. But where "Pokémon Legends: Arceus" differs the most from its predecessors is the fact that being a Pokémon trainer is only part of the overall experience, rather than the singular focus. Instead, "Arceus" and its core gameplay are built around the player being a Pokémon researcher first and foremost.  

Much of the journey in "Pokémon Legends: Arceus" is focused on discovering greater information about the creatures themselves, as well as how they relate to the world around them. This information is greatly expanded upon through the game's Research Tasks, which provide plenty of opportunities for world-building. But how exactly does one go about accomplishing these Research Tasks, and what do they do?

What are Research Tasks?

Research Tasks in "Pokémon Legends: Arceus" can essentially be boiled down to a list of objectives tied to individual Pokémon species. These objectives can be accessed in the Pokédex and are used in-game to collect more data on each Pokémon you encounter in the wild. For instance, a Research Task could involve the player catching a certain number of a specific Pokémon, catching them at a certain time of day, or tracking the amount of times you've seen them perform a certain move.

Upon doing a certain number of these Research Tasks, a red checkmark will appear in the Pokédex to mark their completion. It should also be noted that these tasks can be completed either by viewing Pokémon in the wild or by observing Pokémon you've already captured. For instance, if you need to see a Pokémon do a specific move to complete a Task, you can simply order your own captured Pokémon to perform that move.

What do you get for accomplishing a Research Task?

Upon completing several of the Research Tasks while on expeditions, players can claim their rewards upon returning to their Base Camp and consulting with Professor Laventon. There, Laventon will give you Research Points based on your performance, which can also be turned in at the Jubilife Village to receive a Rank Up star. Research Points and Rank Up stars are vital to the player's progression in-game, as each rank allows players to obtain stronger Pokémon and better items, such as Gigaton Balls and Jet Balls optimized for catching Alpha Pokémon.

While players aren't required to complete every Research Task in the game, Research Points are pivotal in unlocking more main story quests and areas. In other words, Research Tasks are an economical means to this end, as well as the surest way to ensure that your character continues to progress and learn the mysteries of the Hisui region.

Screen Rant

10 things pokémon legends: z-a should take from arceus.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A is the second in the Legends series of Pokémon games, and there are many features it should take from Pokémon Legends: Arceus.

• Pokémon Legends titles are mainline games in the series but with a unique feel.
• Pokémon Legends: Z-A will have a much different setting than Arceus did, but can still share many of the same mechanics.
• Creating a greater emphasis on research and collecting rather than battles can be a continuing theme for Legends titles.

As the second title in the Legends games, Pokémon Legends: Z-A will undoubtedly have some of the same features as were previously seen in Pokémon Legends: Arceus . Although the Pokémon Legends games are still considered mainline entries in the Pokémon video game series, Arceus has a unique style and feel to it that separates it from the traditional titles. Besides having a focus on a specific portion of the Kalos region from Pokémon X and Y , Z-A will likely take many of the basic game mechanics and features that differentiated Pokémon Legends: Arceus .

The setting for Pokémon Legends: Z-A will give a drastically different feel from Arceus , offering a more futuristic cityscape as opposed to the historical world of Arceus . That said, there are still many features that Arceus introduced that should be continued for the Legends framework to help these titles continue to have a unique approach. These aspects of the gameplay can provide an evolved form of Pokémon gaming for players, while the non- Legend games can continue the familiar style.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus Review - More Than A Trainer Journey

10 shiny sound notification to help shiny hunters, some shiny pokémon have very subtle changes.

Shiny hunting in Pokémon games can be equal parts exciting and frustrating, particularly when there are times a player may have completely missed a shiny simply because they did not recognize it to be one. While some of the shiny Pokémon are drastically different in color, others can be extremely subtle and hard to differentiate, such as Pikachu, which is a slightly darker shade of yellow. Arceus had a much better quality-of-life experience simply by adding a noise that played when a shiny was encountered .

9 Only Releasing One Version Of The Game Instead Of Two

Easier to complete a pokédex.

In a game where the focus is on trying to complete a Pokédex, some players are put at an unfair disadvantage with many of the Pokémon games when certain Pokémon are limited to different versions of the same game , such as Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet . Pokémon Legends: Arceus did away with this by only having one game version – thus no version exclusives – and it is something that should be continued with Z-A . This is an easy and effective way of setting apart the Legends games while adding to their emphasis on Pokémon collecting and research.

Every Pokémon Confirmed For Pokémon Legends Z-A (So Far)

8 not having a gym system, despite z-a's setting, creating a different focus than other non-legends titles.

For some players, collecting badges from defeating the Gym Leader is a key part of any Pokémon game, but it was noticeably absent from Arceus . This made sense, as the historical setting of the game took place prior to the foundation of the Pokémon League system, but it also gave the game a different direction for players to focus on. Without the Gym Battles, the game narrowed in on collecting, researching, and exploring the world rather than on powering up Pokémon to defeat a Gym Leader, essentially putting the emphasis on the legends rather than the battles .

7 New Regional Variants For Existing Pokémon

Introduce kalos region or lumiose city versions of pokémon.

In Pokémon Legends: Arceus , players come across special Hisuian variants of many familiar Pokémon of the area. In Z-A , the same concept should be applied. This is a good way of being able to offer something new for players despite being back in a familiar setting of previous games. It could either offer unique Kalos region variants, or it could draw on the fact that Z-A will take place within Lumiose City and feature unique Pokémon versions that are specific to the city.

Legends: Arceus' Most Underrated Hisuian Pokémon

6 questing for researching portions of the pokédex, research tasks are important.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A will not have the same historical approach of creating the very first Pokédex as Arceus did, but there are still many ways that the mechanics of research tasks could be needed. As Lumiose City is being transformed into a haven for Pokémon and humans to live in harmony, it would stand to reason that perhaps more research would be needed on how to best help Pokémon to thrive in the area . This would be a clever way of adding new tasks to learn about the area's pocket monsters.

5 Specialized Mounts For Travel Around Lumiose City

Ride pokémon for different purposes.

Having rideable Pokémon is always a fun dynamic and Arceus provides trainers with several options to help traverse the unique biomes in the game. While Pokémon games in the past did have the chance to use Fly or Surf on a buddy to traverse a challenging spot, Arceus offers five Pokémon that can be ridden in certain areas of the game . This could be an entertaining way to get around the large sections of Lumiose City in Z-A as well.

4 Open World Mechanics For Pokémon

Such as pokémon being able to attack the player.

In Pokémon Legends: Z-A , there will be an interesting contrast to the massive open zones that Arceus had, as Z-A will take place entirely within Lumiose City. Even with a more restricted location, there are still many mechanics that can be carried over, however, such as being able to throw Poké Balls directly at wild Pokémon in the world and the increased danger of Pokémon being able to attack the main character . These types of interactions make the game feel much more organic and real, and offer a more immersive approach.

Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Should’ve Used Legends: Arceus’ Best Mechanic

3 focus on collecting & research more than battling, gotta catch 'em all.

Arceus had a large focus on collecting and researching the various Pokémon, as it was the beginning of humans learning about the pocket monsters and the original Pokédex being created. Within Lumiose City in Pokémon Legends: Z-A , it seems like getting to know more about the Pokémon would make more sense than constant battles. As Arceus was learning about Pokémon in general, Z-A could focus on learning more about how to live in harmony alongside Pokémon within a city .

Legends: Arceus Does One Thing Better Than Any Other Pokémon Game

2 mass outbreaks to improve shiny odds, shiny hunting is much better.

In Pokémon Legends: Arceus , there was a unique game mechanic that allowed for Mass Outbreaks where several of the same Pokémon appear in one area and players receive a notification that they were spotted. This not only was a clever way of adding a feature that capitalized on the new battle mechanics of Arceus but also gave a 25% better chance for players to find a shiny variant of Pokémon in the Mass Outbreak . For anyone looking to collect all the varieties, this event was an exciting way to improve the odds.

1 Battling Mechanics That Differentiate Legends From Other Pokémon Games

No abilities or held items.

Battling in Arceus was a much different type of experience than what players are used to in other Pokémon games. The normal idea of abilities and held items were generally done away with for a new emphasis on Strong or Agile Styles. Depending on which style the player chooses, the Pokémon will battle either stronger but slower, or faster but weaker. This gave a fresh way of battling which should be carried over into the upcoming Pokémon Legends: Z-A as well.
