Pokémon Legends: Arceus Coverage Day 3
With many parts of the world getting their copies today & tomorrow and the eShop now live in some regions, it would be remiss of us to hold off further when so many of you hunger for information. As such, our usual discoveries shall begin. As usual, I'll be posting the main focal points here, while more in-depth details go on the Discovery thread on the forums If you want to remain unspoiled, do not click the spoiler tag, nor visit the Legends: Arceus section until you have your game. Don't worry as blatant spoilers will NOT be on the home page.
Our Legends: Arceus page and our Pokédex are all continually being added to, and we have a New Pokémon page, Hisui Pokédex page and more available so be sure to check our section out. This update will be amended repeatedly with more pages and details as we get through the game
Edit @ 07:23: Updated the Alpha Pokémon page with more clarifications
Edit @ 08:08: Created a page on Mass Outbreaks
Edit @ 09:11: Updated the Requests Section with full details for 25 more requests
Edit @ 09:45: Updated the Attackdex with full secondary effect data for all Attacks in the game. This includes effect rates for both standard and Strong Style boosts, as well as how long the effects will last as they're not a set amount
Edit @ 10;46: Created a page on Pokédex Rank and Research
Edit @ 12:40: Created a page on Merit Points & Lost Satchels
Edit @ 13:42: Updated the Requests Section with full details for 25 more requests
Edit @ 14:03: We have updated Our Pokéarth - Hisui section with some preliminary spawn data. Each area has got dozens of spawn points which call various spawn tables and we've streamlined it to only show each table once. We're working on a way to best display the specific location of each spawn. If a spawn would be outside where the game considers a named area (such as say Aspiration Hill), it can still be listed as that area in the Pokédex but appears in the overall area's page (such as Obsidian Fieldlands)
Edit @ 15:20: Created a page on the Final challenge. Be warned as it contains spoilers
Edit @ 16:45: Updated the Legendary Pokémon section
Edit @ 17:40: Updated the Noble Pokémon section
Edit @ 19:02: We have fixed an issue with the Pokédex that would have prevented it from displaying if your browser didn't properly cache the files
Edit @ 19:17: We now have details and instructions on how to complete all Requests
Edit @ 20:25: Updated the Gift Pokémon section
Edit @ 21:02: Updated the Ginko Guild section with lists of what they sell including the rare Mechanical items
