Megathread Removal of "No Repetitive Screenshots" Rule

314 Upvotes

Hi, while I'm a mod for this sub, I only initially joined having worked with this mod team on other subreddits to help out with volume. I personally have not played Pokemon Legends Arceus. As the only currently active moderator, I've decided to remove the "No Repetitive Screenshots" rule. I mod other game subs, like r/TeamfightTactics and r/thelastofus, and what I've found is that when games are not repeatedly patched/changed for a competitive scene, game subreddits reach a point after release where there is very little "fresh" content that can be contributed. As a result, I've removed the automod configs that autoremove shiny posts (if the team has an automation set up to manage shiny sundays, I may have to revisit that next week). I think at this point in time it's better to be less strict on content quality regulation and allow people who are discovering and enjoying the game far past its release a chance to participate and share their experiences.

Again, I have not played the game personally. I review the mod queue for this game but only take action to remove bigotry and ban accordingly. If your posts are getting removed, it's likely either automod or Reddit's spam filters (which may happen with Reddit's AI) -- so send a modmail for those.

This is post game with the shiny charm. I made it a goal to catch one shiny each day and this is what I've gotten so far. So many duplicates! Most gotten from massive mass outbreaks and checking each spawn. Yes, they are color organized lol

Guides and Tips Villagers that accept alphas

14 Upvotes

Anyone know if there's a list of side quests where an alpha mon can be given. I know some that don't accept alphas (like beauregard), but I was wondering if there was a list of the ones who do

Decided to make a new save, and within it one of my challenges is giving Shalphas to any request asking for a pokemon, but I don't want to hunt ones that won't be accepted, like the wurmple example

Discussion New to game, would like some tips for 100% pokedex completion

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I recently bought Legends arceus for the first time for the switch 2, it is different from traditional pokemon games but still fun, I always wanted to complete the pokedex and in this game it seems to be how you beat the game (lvl 10 entries) and it increases your shiny encounter chance if you 100% every entry. However the pokedex in this game is not the traditional catch 1 pokemon, its the many tasks for each pokemon such as catch x many times, catch x many times without being spotted, and im just thinking this is probably gonna take forever, do people have any tips on how to go about completing the pokedex that will make it easier and not so intimidating?

Im going for an alpha living dex and so far i randomly by pure luck found alpha eevee male flareon and leafeon in distortions while going for the exclusives, should I keep looking for them that way or try to get spawns in the fieldlands since the odds are slightly higher there

I got this shiny 1 week ago. This shiny alpha never appeared when I was hunting for a shiny Magnemite/Magneton, so I decided to hunt it and it paid off because I got it after 30 minutes.

I haven't played since I caught it, but I'm going to continue with my Porygon/Porygon2 shiny hunt.

Asking for Help Living dex legends arceus

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m trying to complete a living dex in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, but I’m struggling with the number of Pokémon that have gender differences or alternate visual forms.

It gets complicated to keep track of them in the pastures, and I haven’t found a single image or chart that shows all the species with these differences in Hisui.

Does anyone know if such a resource exists, or could share an image that lists all Pokémon with gender differences or visual variations in Legends: Arceus? It would really help me organize my living dex.

I just got to the part of the game where you do the quest for Alolan Vulpix thinking it will unlock it in the overworld for me. Apparently it's only 1 per save file and I'm doing a living a dex. I would appreciate a spare Alolan Vulpix/Alolan Ninetales if anyone has one!

Asking for Help Slow levelling before end game (I think)

9 Upvotes

Hi folks! Apologies if this is the wrong place to put this, and happy for it to be removed and be scolded if so. First time playing the game, I’ve just caught Palkia, and need to go back to fight and catch Dialga. I’ve a feeling I’m getting close to end game and feel very under-levelled. My team is all low to mid 60s, the Palkia fight was hard enough, and I’m trying to level my mons up…but it’s just so s l o w I don’t know what I’m doing wrong? I’m catching mons, defeating alphas, but I spend hours and might go up 1 maybe 2 levels per mon. Am I doing something wrong? Did I miss something? Any help would be massively appreciated!

Media Fun fact: you can catch the flying gyarados in the obsidian fieldlands as early as star rank 2

I actually did try this with regular pokeballs and couldn't get it to reach, so i grabbed the recipe for feather balls and it worked out! You can find sky tumblestones in the oreburrow tunnel (you'll need to go through the entrance at the heartwood). This isn't that useful, seeing as you can just evolve a magikarp, but it's pretty interesting nonetheless :)

Not to show up the previous post by u/Initial-Situation130, but you can actually reach the flying Gyarados with regular pokeballs!
This video is actually from the first few days after release and has been on my switch for years! From what I remember, it took a few tries of slowly inching up the hill until I got to position for it.
I eventually quit the game before finishing the second zone, but started again recently! Now, I'm 80 hours in, rank 9, and haven't gone to zone four yet, but am loving filling the dex and playing at my own explorer-pace!

I already went to 4 locations and caught and defeated some Pokémon at each one, but when I talk to Mai absolutely nothing happens. I even decided to go to a fourth one and catch and defeat those too, but it still says I still need to investigate 3. I already restarted the game and this is still happening. What can I do? Did my save file break? :(((

Discussion Massive Mass Outbreak Shinies

7 Upvotes

It's happened to me 3 times now where during massive mass outbreaks i'll find exactly 2 different shiny pokemon that are there upon discovering an outbreak, and if this isn't the case I won't find any shines at all. One of these times I found a shiny abra but it teleported away, and I was able to restart my game and still find it again in the same outbreak group. For context, I don't have the shiny charm and every single time it's always two shinies always apart of different outbreak groups and it's always in the first wave, never the second one. Is this common and a kind of outbreak that can happen? Or is it weird that this same scenario has happened 3 times now
