Pokemon Legends Arceus Nintendo Switch Game

Catch, survey and research wild Pokemon ;to create and complete the Sinnoh region’s first Pokedex in Pokemon Legends Arceus, coming to Nintendo Switch in early 2022. Pokemon Legends Arceus honours past Pokémon games’ core gameplay while infusing new action and RPG elements.

An adventure in the Sinnoh of days gone by

You’ll be brought to the Sinnoh region, the setting for Pokemon ;Diamond and Pokemon ;Pearl. But this story unfolds in a long-gone era, before ideas such as being a Pokemon 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 Pokemon ;Diamond and Pokemon ;Pearl.

Catch Pokemon ;

To catch Pokemon ;in Pokemon ;Legends Arceus, you can observe them to learn their behaviour, then carefully sneak up, aim your Poke Ball and let fly! You can also have your ally Pokémon battle wild Pokémon that you hope to catch. Just throw the Poke Ball holding your ally Pokémon near a wild Pokemon ;, and you’ll seamlessly enter battle and command your Pokemon ;by choosing from moves it knows.

Meet your first Partner Pokemon ;

As you start off on your adventure to create the region’s first Pokedex, 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.
