Pokemon Legends Arceus (2022)

A Bold New Direction


The Pokémon Legends: Arceus game honors past Pokémon games’ core gameplay while infusing new action and RPG elements.

You’ll need to catch, survey, and research wild Pokémon in a long-gone era of the Sinnoh region to create and complete the region’s first Pokédex.

Catch Pokémon
To catch Pokémon in the Pokémon Legends: Arceus game, you can observe them to learn their behavior, then carefully sneak up, aim your Poké Ball™, and let fly!

You can also have your ally Pokémon battle wild Pokémon that you hope to catch. Just throw the Poké Ball holding your ally Pokémon near a wild Pokémon, and you’ll seamlessly enter battle and command your Pokémon by choosing from moves it knows.

An Adventure in the Sinnoh of Days Gone By
You’ll be brought to the Sinnoh region, the setting for the Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl games. But this story unfolds in a long-gone era, before ideas such as being a Pokémon Trainer or having a Pokémon League even existed.

All around, you’ll find Pokémon living wild in harsh environments that make for a Sinnoh unlike the region you may remember from the days of the Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl games.

  The Poké Balls of old were apparently built a little differently from the ones we know so well. They were made mostly of wood, and steam puffed from their tops when Pokémon were caught.
  

Meet Your First Partner Pokémon
As you start off on your adventure to create the region’s first Pokédex, you’ll be able to choose Rowlet, Cyndaquil, or Oshawott as a partner.

These three Pokémon arrived with a Pokémon Professor, who encountered them on research excursions to various regions.


Rowlet

Rowlet is a Pokémon from the Alola region. It uses photosynthesis to store up energy during the day, while becoming active at night. Silently it glides, drawing near its targets. Before they even notice it, it begins to pelt them with vicious kicks.


Cyndaquil

Cyndaquil is a Pokémon from the Johto region. It is timid and always curls itself up in a ball. When it’s surprised, the flames on its back flare up stronger. When it is attacked, it uses its flames to protect itself.


Oshawott

Oshawott is a Pokémon from the Unova region. With the scalchop on its stomach, it blocks opponents’ attacks, then retaliates immediately by slashing. Its scalchop can be used to break open hard Berries as well.

That "Oshawott" thing looks so fukking stupid.

 

dear gawd i wonder can u save me

i can't die my boo boos bout to have my bay bay

 

so much potential I just hope they polish the shyt out of this damn game with decent animations. also if they give you some damn glider rather than having you ride a pokemon through the sky I'm finna pay GF a visit and slap one of those devs.

 

A game so big for the franchise, they had to set the tone with God as the drawing point.

Let's hope they really did take some cues from BOTW and manage to do it big.

 

That's fine as long as your Pokemon don't break after a few uses.

 

At least there's likely gonna be a replacement Shinx right next to the village if that happens, breh. Just need to load up on a few apricorn balls

 

This shyt running at 2 FPS
Should of just showed screenshots

 

Love the different concept but that fps and graphics

 

yall trippin off the fps when u know there's a switch pro coming and i wont buy this game until there is a switch pro

 

confirmation of switch pro?

 

Game has over a year left in development, but as of now it doesn’t look interesting to me. I’m hoping they prove me wrong, but it looks bland right now. I would love to see them go in a bold new direction but I doubt they will deviate too far.

 

This is not coming out early next year.

 

Wait so are there even any trainer battles in this shyt?
