20 Obscure Details You Missed in Pokemon Legends Arceus!

[@StraightestDakregor]

I'm surprised you didn't talk about nosepass, in the Highlands map, there's a group of nosepass that are all facing north unless you interact with them, exactly as past Pokedex entries and lore say they do.

[@ShinyTogeticFTW]

"Past Pokédex entries" lol don't you mean **future** Pokédex entries? After all, this game takes place in the past, so the stuff that was released earlier actually happened after this game.

[@LargeMic]

There is a request in the same zone where you have to bring a nosepass to a lady stuck in a cave so she can get out and she mentions in the dialogue that they always face north

[@brenduck]

they do it in pokemon go too. whenever you tap on one, it'll rotate to face you, but if you flee the battle it'll rotate north again after some time. couldn't tell you how happy i was when i saw that

[@lyndsaybrown8471]

Alpha Nosepass was the chillers Alpha. It say facing north the entire time while the ominous music played.

[@Laile2006]

Dude u literally make those entries urself they r ur future work

[@Mendhakk]

2:53 the reason why it doesn't mention Phanpy/Donphan is because they are ground types which don't get affected by Raichu's electric powers at all and that is actually pretty neat

[@MrKlausbaudelaire]

Plus they are based on AFRICAN elephants, while Copperajah is based on Indian elephants.

[@CookedBacons]

A fun fact I learned from my friend who speaks Japanese: the naming of the Hisuian Pokedex makes a bit more sense in Japanese because it means something closer to "field manual"

[@MrKlausbaudelaire]

Plus "Pokedex" is basicaly "pokemon index", which makes more sense in japanese because its a language that tends to abbreviate terms by fusing words. Like the anime "Konosuba" being *kono* *suba* rashii sekai wo shukufukuwo (God Bless this Wonderful world).

[@myotheremailisacat]

@@MrKlausbaudelaire Compound words and portmanteaus are common in every language...

[@MrKlausbaudelaire]

@@myotheremailisacat yes, but the way Japanese does it is quite unique on its own because its a language complete and utterly UNNABLE to do letter abbreviations due its syllabic alphabet, so every abbreviation becomes a word on its own.

Something I only learned about today: a normally grounded Pokemon that has wings actually flies when sent out of their ball when above water, instead of sitting on that little floating boat. Examples for this is the Rowlet line. This is the first time since the series went 3D, that pokemon have 2 idle stances!

There is a fun detail I noticed: in battle, pokemons will always look at each other in the eye. So when you have pokemons with large heigh difference (lets say you throw a Dialga against a Turtwig like a maniac) they will both move their heads, eyes and even walk away so they can look each other in the eye, even during attack animation!

[@rainbowsylvie16]

I noticed that when my staraptor was battling a magmar! Love these little details

I was battling the Alpha Rapidash and walked to the side of it, and it just jerked its head to stare at me. I’ve even got the screenshot because it looked so weird.

[@nickkrasny1562]

[@Jedi_pup]

I have noticed also the pokemon will look at you when throw the pokeball too. When you try to capture in battle.

[@lyndsaybrown8471]

That explains why they move up to each other. Here I thought Giratina was just trying to intimidate me. Like, dude, there are no Skills in this game, and that's not even yours.

[@AbsolBlogsPokemon]

Love all the details put into this game!!! If I had to guess what happened with Misery's situation, it probably had something to do with day/night encounters getting swapped out. In the Bolderoll slopes, it looks like Graveler spawns during the day, but Zubat can also occupy that spot at night

the farmer having a comment if you give him an alpha pokemon actually applies to almost every quest involving lending one of the townsfolk a pokemon, like when the clothier asks to see a wormadam! in fact, for the Glameow quest, if you show the man an Alpha Glameow, he will actually tell you to go back and catch a normal-sized one, because he believes you caught the wrong pokemon- he specifies that the one he saw was "bidoof sized". i found that one out the hard way XD

[@therealmichirukaiou]

[@nanabobo567]

Here's a fun one I noticed while searching for the stupid Unown- behind the clothier there is a clothes line with fabric on it. The more you've unlocked in the clothing shop, the more fabrics will be on the lines.

[@blankadams3120]

When Iscan asks you to catch a Dusknoir, he specifically points out that you can find them in the map area that looks like a clawed hand. The pokemon photos in the dex being literal pictures can be explained when you first arrive to fight the alpha Kriketune in deer's landing. Laventon comes running up and brandishes his camera, hoping to get pics of an alpha.

[@Argumentable]

Yeah, I was wondering how the hand was a fact that we "missed" when the game specifically tells you about it. Of course, some people don't read everything in games (guilty of that here) Everything else was cool though

[@NoodleGoblin]

Glad someone pointed this out, how could anyone miss that?

[@chaosstripe9446]

Or there's literally a photo studio with that exact white background in town?

[@cogafireese5290]

There's even an area close to the hand part named "Tombolo" Walk, which just sounds like thumb, adding more to the implication.

[@DeltaPhox]

⚠️ SPOILER WARNING: Read at own risk⚠️ A neat (and kinda obvious) detail I noticed in the 3 trials of the lake spirits is how Azelf's trial tests how determined you are and just how long you'll sit there and throw balms, incarnating willpower. Mesprit's trial has no wrong answer like how there are no wrong emotions. And Uxie's Trial has a never-changing definitive answer, embodying how knowledge is either right or wrong with no room for error.

[@YourMid740]

Fun Fact about Azelf: You notice how when you throw balms at it and it teleports out if the way? Well after the third try, it stands still and let’s you hit it, almost as if you proved your willpower and allowed you to hit it and finish the trial.

[@sallytims6894]

I noticed a random animation detail today. When your character wears geta sandals, if you walk slowly you'll see your character's foot lift first and the sandal will follow shortly after

[@MrKlausbaudelaire]

and the sound of your steps on hard surfaces is more "wooden" compared to other footwears.

[@UnDefinedLegacy]

In your place outside of the door threshold area you are barefoot. Then going into the door threshold area you got shoes.

[@ShinyTogeticFTW]

@@UnDefinedLegacy the shoes vanish in everyone's dwelling places when you're not in the area near the door; it's common in some cultures - including Japanese - to remove your shoes when you're inside a home.

[@thestr8cougar]

That last fact, I saw a guy calling it the "shiny swap method". He found a shiny drifblim and saved, waited til it was morning in his game and saved again, reset the game and it was a starly. So once there's a pokemon in that grid the shiny will be replaced.

[@MMSR_Reds]

Red, white, and blue, true to its Unovan (NY equivalent in Pokemon) origins :)

[@BlueBoyPhin]

if you look at the pokedex entry for basculin it says the professor classifies it as a regional form based on its gentle behavior in comparison to normal basculin though?

[@darththeo]

@@BlueBoyPhin " Though it differs from other Basculin in several respects, including demeanor-this one is gentle-I have categorized it as a regional form given the vast array of shared qualities." It is just saying Laventon considers it a regional form, not that it is one.

@@BlueBoyPhin I would argue that other Hisuian forms are specifically labeled as such in the Pokedex though, unlike Basculin

[@M_Alexander]

To be fair, if it were called Hisuian Basculin, I guarantee we'd end up calling it White Stripe regardless

[@nickinq]

another fact is that when you throw one of your pokemon in water areas, they will either fly, levitate or stand on a wooden platform which is WAYY better than pokemon just magically standing on the surface of the water.

I love how much unnecessary detail they put into this game! I've actually noticed a few things to add on to some of the findings in this video. - Your character also reacts to other things aside from successful captures as well. Their expression changes if they're being targeted, if they have a status condition such as frostbite, or if there's a pokemon nearby (such as when Aipom runs up to you). - The gardener isn't the only NPC who gives special dialogue if you bring him an alpha. I brought an alpha starly to the one lady who gives you the starly quest, and she commented on its size too.

Another neat little detail is if you do enough requests around the village, you'll start seeing pokemon and their trainers up and about. This can be seen very early on with a Bidoof request where you must track down 3 Bidoofs around town and afterwards those same Bidoofs will appear on top of their new owner's house. Or how in one request you have to catch a Geodude to help a woman prepare a pickled dish by having the pokemon sit on top of the pot. If you do this, you'll see the Geodude sitting on the same pot from then on.

Thanks for letting us know about this, I think I’ll experiment with it in the future. I caught it as a Graveler so obviously too late to experiment with that now but next time I find a random shiny, I’ll save immediately & pin my location & if the spawn changes at night, see if I can change the shiny.

I actually did this when I encountered a Shiny Combee, the time of day shifted shortly after the Combee spawned and it was replaced with a Shiny Zubat. Right in front of my eyes. I didn't have Autosave turned off at that point, but I decided to reset the game anyway. 5 minutes later, I'd navigated back to where the Shiny Combee was and it re-spawned giving me a second chance at it (and I caught it). The observations at the end of this video more or less confirmed my suspicions - Shiny encounters are decided the moment you enter the map/area and so long as your game auto-saved after arrival, you can re-attempt that shiny.

2:21 This aged so well

[@MtheGate]

My favourite fact so far is that in the overworld, Nosepass always faces north

[@Sora1the]

congrats on legends zygarde prediction coming true

[@owormiv]

My favorite thing I discovered that I don’t think anyone else has is that for the farm requests you can have all three Pokémon be Gastrodon since it’s ground/water and can learn rock smash. The only other that could do all three is Wishcash but not Barboach since it can’t learn rock smash. I absolutely love Gastrodon so of course I had him there :)

[@AnimeFreak1193]

legends zygard is next 8) Comming back 2 years later bc i remembered this line .... AND ITS TRUE XDDD

[@deltaslime1662]

Talking about the pokedex being a physical book, as you progress in the game (or as you catch more pokemon, i don't actually know), the front page of the pokedex shows more and more traces of wear, meaning that it's completely pristine at the start, and as you go on, the colors start to fade at the edges

[@dddel7]

The Legend Zygarde thing was an actual fact I guess!

[@ioRyTo1]

2:21 OMG you saw the future

[@Eyelidyoinker]

Why the heck would a shirt make you predict the future

[@dragapultdashers3684]

Bro predicted kalos legends damn.

[@missileslayz7772]

Great timing for that last detail about the shiny swapping, Austin John released an entire video about replicating that exact phenomenon today :D

[@aRookieGod]

2:16 single handedly just predicted Pokémon legends ZA without knowing himself

[@PaleaRaptor]

Pokemon RNG tables, including shininess, seems to be decided for each map when Jubilife is loaded. I once found a shiny in Cobalt Coastland, failed it, and when I reloaded my file I was back in Jubilife. I travelled to Cobalt Coastland and found the shiny again. I'm really interested in learning how pokemon are generated in this game

[@wesley0a]

@2:23 congrats you called it

[@ReneePrower]

Funny enough, Austin John put up a video on the same day as this one going into how shiny swapping works. The community is really on top of these things! 😄

[@carlmoman4787]

Some of the newer pokemon iterations also allowed you to set the shiny version of the pokemon as the default pokedex picture. It isn't new to legends arceus. The folds are a nice detail tho

[@greybatter9727]

The fact that the player character is originally from Kalos is kind of a contradiction, because in Raichu's Pokédex entry where it mentions Copperajah, it also mentions "from my homeland."

[@MMSR_Reds]

That entry is from Laventon, not the main character. Laventon is implied to be from a different country as Hisui, as he uses mix of English words when you play in languages like Japanese or Korean. (Idk how they handled this nuance in English version actually)

[@clef0nite]

2:22 "or... Maybe legends zygarde is next." About that.......

[@RockhopperRio]

Adding to the roof in Jubilife Village where you can throw your Pokémon on top of it, I’ve found a few different areas in the game where you can throw your Pokémon into weird places. In certain spots in caves, if you throw your Pokémon in certain parts of the ceiling, you can get your Pokémon to clip through the ceiling, just sort of stuck there with their legs hanging out from under it. I’ve been able to do this is the first cave of the Coronet Highlands and one of the overworld caves in the Alabaster Icelands, and I’d assume there’s probably more places you can do this as well that I hadn’t found yet

[@mizukittyakinyama]

In Obsidian Fieldlands, near the Worn Bridge, if you throw your Pokémon at the right angle, you can get them stuck inside of the step looking things. I'll make a video of things like this at some point

[@kaymojil7669]

2:21 you were right

[@DrewatDrake]

That Legends: Zygarde prediction is gold two years later

[@xablauvermelho4228]

2:23 Bro predicted Legends ZA

[@박군-i6v]

2:57 I think the reason why they could not fix the Pokédex despite the existence of this elephant Pokémon is because it is a ground type Pokémon, so it won't faint from Raichu's thunderbolt.

[@Jellylamps]

The last point already has a decent bit of understanding. Under ordinary circumstances, a Pokémon replacing a shiny by a day/night cycle respawn wouldn’t retain the shininess, but when saved and reset, the shininess of the original is then applied. I’m not personally sure if this always works but the effect can be repeated endlessly if found to happen once. Also not sure if it may hold worth as a way to grind a shiny into an alpha shiny. These mechanics might also hint at some weird quirks of shiny luck with “replacement” Pokémon when not resetting

[@wd5807]

The callout for legends ZA is insane
