Pokemon Legends: Arceus Has Leaked – Details Revealed

While rumors for Pokemon Legends: Arceus have been surfacing online for quite some time now, it appears that a prominent leaker who goes by “Riddler_Khu” has been proven to have a copy of the game. Not only are they in possession of the game, but they have come forward with some new more information as well. Unfortunately, we are unable to link directly to the Tweets here because the account is privated, but we will go ahead and share the screenshots with you as we go. So let’s jump in and go over the new details.

At first glance, it doesn’t seem like that’s anything too new here. Makes sense so far, but things start to get a bit more interesting once some initial replies begin coming in.

When someone mentioned that it shouldn’t be too difficult to catch various Pokemon and progress/manage resources, Riddler_Khu responded that some species of Pokemon are difficult to find in-game and are “alert to your actions”. He then goes on to mention that the Goomy family in particular is difficult to sneak up on and catch and perhaps that their spawn rate is on the more rare side. He also mentions that all legendary Pokemon in Arceus are boss fights.

In previous leaks from Ridder_Khu, they mentioned that each boss fight is very different from the others, requiring the player to use different strategies to win.

And in a further subset of comment replies, mentioned that they believe the boss battles will be difficult for those more accustomed to the RPG battles of past and aren’t well versed in action game mechanics.

On the topic of Pokemon Home, Riddler_Khu indicated that Pokemon can only be transferred to Pokemon Home from Legends Arceus, but not in reverse to Arceus Legends from Home.  Also, apparently while Pokemon do store the code for their EVs and IVs, they’re not used to calculate stats in Pokemon Legends Arceus, but instead all Pokemon of the same breed will have the same stats. There are also no abilities, held items, or breeding in the game. Also to note, catching Arceus requires completing the Hisui Pokemon by catching everything in the region.

As with all leaks and rumors, take this all with a huge grain of salt. While this leaker does have a very solid track record and we have no reason to believe any of this info is false, we won’t know for certain until the game is officially released.
