Pokemon Legends Arceus: 10 Things You NEED To Know Before You Play

[@TagBackTv]

Released the video a day early on accident.. but the embargo is currently lifted so ill keep it live..game still releases on the 28th in the US

[@fafet9289]

I was going to say i was in town today and its not out till tomorrow LOL!, i wont be watching just wanted to like and comment for the algorithm, hope i get it tomorrow

[@shadowdoyler]

xD seen you changed the title as well

[@Mus1kkr1t1k]

There called Effort Levels.

[@TagBackTv]

@@Mus1kkr1t1k yeah i think i called it grit? I blsme the fever u had whej recording lol

[@Mus1kkr1t1k]

It’s a Great video by the way, very informative.

[@Ju5t4l1z4rd]

Basically the Leaden Balls has a potential of giving blunt force trauma to unsuspecting pokemon to increase the catch rate

[@TagBackTv]

🥲

[@minerobloxer1gaming663]

What do gigaton balls do to an unsuspecting Pokémon?

[@lastchance2849]

Another pro type I just learned was every time you release a Pokémon you get random grit dust or gravel or pebbles

[@Alfred_the_doodler]

Appreciate all the tips! I was relieved to realize that getting a complete research level doesn’t actually mean checking every single one of those boxes haha. Also the farm thing was appreciated, no one else has talked about the farm

[@lastchance2849]

Me too I literally didn’t even realize that I was finished with some Pokédex entries for side quests for a minute and I was thinking how tedious it was and I felt dumb when I figured it out

[@x.SE7EN.x314]

Same

[@okkipooky8612]

If you care about shiny then It is still worth to go past “complete” (lvl 10) as the next level is “perfect” which SIGNIFICANTLY improves your chance at shiny Pokémon at least do this for your favorite species! :)

[@Alfred_the_doodler]

@@okkipooky8612 hell yea you are right, I learned that from another video. So far I perfected scyther and scizor only haha. In terms of shiny I really want, electrode is top of my list

[@nickpossum3607]

A little tip I found in gathering, you don't need the ride Pokemon to get to some places to get stuff. Just throw your Pokemon up there and they will pickup the item for you. It's almost like Link's boomerang. I know it's not much but I thought it was cool to know and share.

[@robinsuj]

About the grit: there's also Grit Rock that takes the EV from 9 to 10 (the max). The things can be obtained, as you said from capturing and defeating Pokémon, but also by releasing captured Pokémons; yo can also exchange 10 of one type to the next level (dust to gravel, for example) at the lady in the Training camps. Also, about the wood, Scythers drop wood, maybe other mons too (IDK).

[@Shadowwing1994]

Honestly Tag your video is the only one that actually got me excited for this game! It looks fun and I love all the little things that you can do in it. I hope this becomes a series so I can see you play this game

[@kristina-royalnaminae2378]

Hi Tag, thanks for your first Video on this. The Tipp with the starters really helped me

[@bellamerci8423]

These are great tips! I can’t wait to put them into practice when I start playing Friday!

[@Bogrin]

Thanks for the tips! Can’t wait for this it seems pretty much like the game I dreamed of as a kid

[@creninj2535]

For the grit powder, the best way I found is to release duplicate pokemon. You'll catch a lot you don't need, so release them. The more and higher level =more and better grit items

[@sonia7778]

Thanks!

[@arrrose]

Yay! I can't wait for this game. Submiting essay on the 27, and gettiing the game on the 28. Weekend plans here we go!

[@RainyDayx]

Thanks for all the helpful tips. Gonna come in handy. I can’t wait to play all weekend!

[@DuongNam1102]

Yooo you are way to cute 0❤

[@Lexi-1234]

Me - actively watching tons of arceus videos and previously watching all of Tags videos KZbin: nahhh, I won't show you this one or notify you about it. Thanks for the great video Tag! Helpful tips.

[@KeyThrast]

I just got this game and have been super hyped and watching starting tips at work for when I get off. Clicked this one thinking “I should probably watch a different type of Legends Arceus video ‘cuz all of these starting tips have been the same.” And then you mentioned farming and I’m like “…Why has no other video mentioned this?!?!”

[@theopieshow1320]

Fun tip you can throw your Pokemon quickly switch and throw another out up to 3 if your fast enough so you can just run past resources and your Pokemon will get them

[@ricardoalvarado3622]

I got my pre-order and it’s downloaded on my switch but I got to wait till Friday to play it. It won’t let me but these tips will help me out

[@ShadowSkyX]

You only have to wait until midnight tonight

[@ricardoalvarado3622]

So far it’s looking good. I am still trying to figure out how to do global trade when it comes to that. I am still grinding my Pokémon to get higher level. I already got 4 alphas, kriketune, bibarrel, graveler and golbat

[@YokaiTheGameGuy]

Very helpful! And your voice is easy to listen to! Thanks for your tips!

[@ReadGameCraftCook]

I’ve watched so many reviews and tips videos and not one mentioned a farm! Your video sounds like you really take your time rather than focus on beating it first.

[@seanmaddex4104]

im excited to see some actually useful tips to inform gameplay rather than just recaps of the announced features

[@Lady-0f-Space]

Thank you Tag!! Helpful tips as always.

[@nathanspencer1487]

Can't wait to get my hands on this! Love the content Tag!

[@tiramisumochi4787]

So glad you did a video early!! Was waiting for your take on this game whilst my kid and I eagerly wait for it to release 🥰

[@silverleafmageofvalentine7781]

Great tips as always, thanks Tag! Looking forward to seeing more!

[@PolandSphere]

Can't wait to start shiny hunting in this game, it's gonna be really fun. The outbreaks of pokemon seems fun, but also kinda tedious, so I'm not sure how well it'll translate over to my actual gameplay.

[@Soul_404.]

Well I haven’t shiny hunted yet but already got 2 just around

[@Gummybearkillerr]

@@Soul_404. every shiny i find it runs away ;-;

[@Soul_404.]

F in chat

[@Soul_404.]

My advice if u see a shiny Turn off auto save Save In gage in battle Don’t attack it Use a poke ball (whichever is best for that Pokémon) Use poke a ball again if it fails Then u have a shiny (Thank me later 😉) (I’m joking don’t thank me)

[@Seraphielium]

FYI I do believe there is no time limit to the mass outbreaks it’s just a certain amount of pokemon, when it gets down to less than four are spawning then the outbreak will be over after those are gone

[@danielle_z]

This will be my first Pokémon game (besides Pokémon snap lol) so I am very excited!

[@MatsuyoRific]

One thing I wish I'd known at the start is to turn in your dex often early game. I stayed out in the field for a super long time my first time out, and I ended up finding a shiny Dustox in the Floral Guardens that I couldn't catch because I didn't have any stars on my dex yet.

[@MrNtlman]

in regards to grit items, you can get easy grit by catching a bunch of pokemon and releasing them. the higher the level, the better and more grit items you get on release.

[@LostinBlue88]

What do you do with all the tons of the same Pokemon you catched? Can you release them?

[@TagBackTv]

You can yes, and in bulk

[@amymalone3995]

I was wondering the same..... I dont need 20 Starly 😆😆

[@grey3414]

ooh. I like the aiming tip! I'm excited to get mine tomorrow! (hopefully) lol

[@martinneween]

Loved the tips and loved being called “lovely humans”

[@cutecatattack11]

If you give the farm an alpha they have special voice lines :) plus it's cool to see an alpha helping out the village

[@SmittyMacJones]

I saw that I gave my farm a dupe Alpha gen 4 full evolved starters

[@beardedraider4751]

Loved the vid!

[@trueleon8829]

Can't wait to play pokemon arceus(it looks like the best Pokemon game)

[@shadowl3gion641]

Thank you for the tips and tricks on playing Pokémon, 1:09

[@thecappy]

I hope my preorder comes in Friday

[@jonahferguson5965]

I'm about 8 hours in, and have been COMPLETELY doing all the research quests for each pokemon in the beginning of Obsidian flatlands, not realizing you only had to go to level 10

[@RoninXDarknight]

Supposedly if you complete all of the research tasks in their entirety for a species of pokemon that also ups the chance of finding shinies of that species.

[@TheRidg11]

Your don't fall out of the sky tip had me in stitches 🤣 its like you felt the pain of that fall 🤣🤣

[@B-Moye]

RuffledRowlet just posted a video about how you can go back and forth under 60secs to Jubiife before getting close enough to engage the outbreak in order to reset the shiny roll without causing the outbreak to disappear. Seems like a legit, albeit rather involved method for shiny hunting

[@EraclesK]

How did you get such high level Pokémon so fast , when the game only just came out , and love the tips ?

[@silverleafmageofvalentine7781]

"That's a solid tip, don't fall out of the sky" 😂😂 Does that mean that you're actually recommending against the patented TagbackTV shortcuts? 😂

[@amymalone3995]

Don't fall in the water either..... 😆😆😆😆

[@B-Moye]

"Wam. Bam. Thank you, ma'am." I wish you could assign catch phrases to your avatar, cause this would definitely be mine.

[@ExSoldier101]

You can get evolution stones from regular farming rocks. They don't need to be sparkling. All of the stones I gathered were not from sparkling ones. I'm sure the rare drop % is lower on non sparkling ones but the chance of the stone sparkling is low anyway so might as well gather all stones to increase chances of the drop

[@whosfrank9905]

His commentary is why I’m subbing lolz

[@LordVhaeraun]

I've avoided your twitch streams cause I didn't want to get spoiled by the game, but this tips video was hype.

[@TagBackTv]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@michaelcaley1359]

Great video, loving this game. I just wanted to add to your information on the "mass outbreaks". They are not time sensitive. You do not have to be fast about it. The pokemon will spawn in groups of 4 or 5. You can take your time and when you don't see any more spawn after the forth you'll know the event is almost over. The amount that will spawn changes but you can take your time and catch/kill them how ever you please. Also make sure you save prior to doing the event just in case a shiny spawns and you mess it up. You can reload and it will still be there. 👍

[@SparksHardcoreMusic]

Now...Don't take my word on it to heart, but this is how I think the balls stack up. Pokeball and Featherball have the same catch rate. Great Ball, Heavy Ball, and Wing Ball have the same catch rate. Ultra Ball, Leaden Ball have the same catch rate. Of course, the heavy/leaden balls must hit unsuspected to get the boosted odds, you get them earlier then the normal ball counterparts, but I think thats how it all works.

[@AD-C]

Tip - always watch your back because a disappearing drifloon would like to appear and attack you with shadow ball in cobalt coastlands 😂

[@leobeanie]

Thank you so much for this video.

[@starblaze5813]

That farm reminds me of the one from Pokemon Journeys with the diglett???

[@7amid-]

do you recommend it for a newcomer ? im a ps5 gamer just got my nintendo so idk i gonna like it or not

[@peeliogames4513]

I pre-order it a few week's ago and so cant wait it looks a beautiful game 😀😀

[@erickreyes7902]

@@TagBackTv do you really thing this is a BIG STEP for POKEMON GAMES going forward?... I mean I dreamt once for a pokemon like this... but this is a SPIN OFF... I wonder what GEN 9 will be like if its like this....

[@bnewtz7492]

@@erickreyes7902 PLA isn't a spin-off. It's, canonically, a mainline series game. So yes, regarding where this game stands and the decades-long same old Pokémon formula, Legends Arceus is a BIG STEP for Pokémon games. There is no going back.

[@McManthony21]

Typhlosion looking real sleepy or a little derpy.

[@nickgennady]

I like how he got bit thinner (so less weight) but his speed stat went down 🤣

[@DrewatDrake]

You have to catch at least one of a pokemon for it to start showing research levels, so catching is required.

[@nightmare0931]

this is the best pokemon game sofar thenit´s Black/White, platinum, XY, ORAS hope they keep this type of the gameplay (farming, hunting pokemon on the field and not random battle, no EV:s and no Abilities)

[@khi0ne1999]

The farm feature, I don't understand how it works. Is it base on IRL time or in-game time? It's a little bit a work to visit time to time if its already time to harvest or not.

[@jacintatate]

Hi, I'm struggling to level up Pokemon. I have my main 6 which are level 18-19 but all my other Pokemon are still at level 4-5. Should I move the lower levels to my main set and keep fighting wild pokemons? What is everyone strategy to this game? Do you level up all of your pokemon at the same time or just a couple at a time?

[@pablobeast1]

Theres almost no trainer battles what’s the point of leveling up so much

[@SmileyTrilobite]

You never need to level up your whole collection. That’d be a lot of time to spend if you don’t find it fun! Concentrating on only a small group that you like using is fine; you only need to level up others when you want/need to change your strategy, or if you simply feel like it. Low-levels can catch up to the rest of your team through non-battle XP until they can help in a battle capacity.

[@jacintatate]

@@SmileyTrilobite thanks for the reply. Ive now focused on filling the pokedex and collecting as many species as possible to gain stars. Ive been levelling and evolving the pokémon's that I really like as I think they'll be necessary to fight against raging wild pokemon. I think its good to have diversity of fire, water, grass, etc.

[@DittoGengar]

I wanna ask, how to activate the focusing thingy?

[@Veliara84]

If you finish all the tasks for research of a pokemon in pokedex you have increased odds of getting shiny pokemon for that pokemon.

[@reganharv]

the graphics actually look so good??

[@AZodiacCancer]

With the game officially released. Tell that to my Switch.

[@tale_play]

Is it only pokemon you can find in the wilds? How about some other habitats? I find it empty plain to be honest. I wish its not only pokemon you can see, but other things as well. Great information by the way. Thank you for this! :)

[@TheAlphaLucifer]

If you go to the forest in real life, do you see all animals in one spot?

[@tale_play]

@@TheAlphaLucifer I wasn't talking about Pokemon to be put in one spot. I am talking about other things that we can see to make the world more vibrant and alive. Because all I see is only empty plains, nature looks so dull. There is so much potential in enriching the enviroment and not leave it in such a state, because that's the point of open world map. 🤔

[@Poke-ladd]

This might sounds dumb but can you soft reset to shiny hunt the starters but also what’s the sage point cause I assume you talk to the professor to pick but don’t you have to catch them
