01Overview
Pokémon Legends: Arceus honors past Pokémon games' core gameplay while infusing new action and RPG elements. The player has to catch, survey and research wild Pokémon in a long-gone era of the Sinnoh region, now called Hisui, to create and complete the region's first Pokédex. The player goes on survey missions across large natural areas. Wild Pokémon can be caught by learning their behavior, sneaking up and throwing a well-aimed Poké Ball. Throwing the ball of an ally Pokémon near a wild one starts a battle without a loading break. Some Pokémon can be ridden across land, sea and sky. Mount Coronet rises at the center of Hisui, with areas around it that each have their own environment. The game adds newly discovered Pokémon such as Wyrdeer, an evolution of Stantler, and regional forms such as Hisuian Growlithe, Hisuian Zorua and Hisuian Zoroark. The story follows the mystery around the Mythical Pokémon Arceus. A free update called Daybreak adds mass outbreaks of Pokémon and battles against Legendary Pokémon and wardens.
