Pokemon Legends Arceus has finally arrived and it’s shaking up the standard Pokemon formula in ways we’ve never seen before. This entry in the long-running creature catching franchise is an open-world outing in the same vein as Breath of the Wild.

We’re taken all the way back to the ancient past of the Sinnoh region — known here as the Hisui region — to research Pokemon as they wander around in their natural habitats. With a headquarters stationed in Jubilife Village, players are tasked with completing surveying missions to learn more about the creatures that call Hisui their home.

Along the way, you’ll no doubt have more than a few questions when it comes to how the game’s new mechanics work, how to get certain useful items, where to find certain Pokemon, and much more. This Pokemon Legends Arceus guide wiki will provide some helpful tips, tricks, and other useful info as you journey into the Hisui region for the very first time.
