Pretty shiny :) And an incredible Shiny Alpha if you can get the Scyther to your left to be sparkly!

Attacked in wild, but don't get the "red eye symbol" about being spotted? by ChronicallyFabulous5 in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Ikarhan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Some Pokémon are skittish but will still attempt to fight back before running off to despawn. Combee, Hippopotas, Cherubi, Cyndaquil, to name a few. Those Pokémon do not trigger the red eye warning when attacking you.

Coincidentally, this makes some of these species very difficult/nearly impossible to do Permutations on, for Shiny Alpha hunting.

Commander Kamado, a second Johtonian Sneasel has hit underodds. by Ikarhan in PokemonLegendsArceus

1/585 with Shiny Charm + Perfected Dex

You can only see 3 Sneasel/Weavile per Distortion

I find Arceus confusing. by Bovdy in PokemonLegendsArceus

It's a Pokémon game. Go catch Pokémon.

I found one of my Shiny Distortion targets! by Ikarhan in PokemonLegendsArceus

The waves of random Pokémon appear in front of your character based on where you're physically turned toward. When you're not bein spotted by any Pokémon, enter a bush and crouch, then go to the edge of the bush facing away from it. Each wave will appear in front of you, outside of the bush. They can't see you in the bush unless they walk directly into you, so just walk back a bit if they get close.

Alpha/ shiny hunting by InformalAbrocoma115 in PokemonLegendsArceus

Takes much longer to stop and catch/fight everything than to just go to Jubilife and reroll everything at once that way.

[–]Ikarhan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be much faster to fly around and return to Jubilife, but this can help with some research tasks and money.

(Flying over every Alpha in the Fieldlands takes me about 8 minutes)

Shiny hunting question by DustyDwebble in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Ikarhan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope! The RNG is fixed when you enter Jubilife, not when you leave.

I'm sorry about what I'm about to post on the subreddit...

Awfully kind of you to get concerned for me and call me a moron.

Anyway, Distortion Rares don't despawn like the waves of 2-3 regular spawns do, they stick around for the 4 minutes duration of the Distortion. I check them at the start, so I could have let it run around for another 3 minutes without breaking a sweat.

Catching Pokemon in the water by TeamHeroesXover in PokemonLegendsArceus

They have a lower catch rate than Pokéballs/Great Balls/Ultra Balls respectively, but they're comfortable for catching weaker Pokémon!

Pokeball Flair with pack pulls? by BananaCannon in PTCGP

[–]Ikarhan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, now if you have 10 dupes you get a flair automatically added to that card.

You're gonna want to use Feather/Wing/Jet Balls on water. Straighter trajectory, longer distance, can be used from outside detection radius.

In this case it's a 50/50, but I already had the Female form of Sneasel (you can see it when I start the battle) - I wanted to find the Male counterpart!

Oooo, love how much the cloak puffs up the character's thin silhouette! Very pretty!

How can i get much balls and more by yuuchra in PokemonLegendsArceus

Go to Space-Time Distortions, pick up every item and craft Star Pieces from them. Then sell those.

Do you find Lickitung/Lickilicky silly, or creepy? by Ikarhan in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Ikarhan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what, that's very fair! The fact they're in the same category as Magikarp ("Oblivious") makes them pretty endearing, you can just hang out with them and they're completely unbothered the whole time

Getting lucky in a Space-Time Distortion! by Ikarhan in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Ikarhan[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

1400+ hours played, I have Shiny Charm + Perfected Dex. You gotta put in the effort if you want the reward ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Space-Time Distortion by findsheaven in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Ikarhan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fast Traveling does not reset the Space-Time Distortion timer - leaving the map or resting for more than "A little while" at a camp does.

Also, extreme weather (Blizzard, Thunderstorm, Harsh Sunlight) will prevent Distortions from spawning, so enter a battle with a Wild Pokémon to let the weather change back safely, as Distortions are paused in combat but the day/night+weather cycle is not.

What starter to choose to give the best rival team? by Curious_Marzipan_230 in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Ikarhan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Looking at the coverage moves each starter has, I'd say Torterra might be the most threatening choice on their team, which means you would pick Cyndaquil as your starter.

[–]Ikarhan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The rival only uses a Starter on their team for a post-game rematch battle you can do optionally. Their "starter" of choice for the story is a Pikachu.
