Everything we now know, after an advanced look at the latest explainer.
What is Pokemon Legends Arceus?
What we can do, however, is explain it all.
So let’s dive in: what, exactly, is Pokemon Legends Arceus?
This is the first of many departures from the usual main series games.
This seemingly increases that Pokemon’s research level in the Pokedex, until its page is fully completed.
What that rank actually means, or allows you to do, isn’t clear just yet.
If we’re speculating, unlocking the new areas of Hisui may be related to that.
It’s all very Sheikah Slate, if you’ve played that little-known game calledBreath of the Wild.
Alternatively, we know things are definitely progressed in some way via completing Missions.
They include returning items like berries and apricorns, and some new ones, like Tumblestone.
Speaking of Poke Balls, catching works quite differently in Legends Arceus to any other Pokemon game before it.
Some can do this very easily, especially the new Alpha Pokemon.
Battling is yet another central part of the game to get a revamp.
The truly big change, though, is to the battling system itself.
Most, or possibly all, moves can be used in Agile Style or Strong Style.
Put everything together and Arceus does sound like a little bit of a revelation for long-time players.
