Pokémon Legends: Arceus gift Pokémon
There are eight Pokémon Legends: Arceus gift Pokémon up for grabs in total, each obtained through different methods. Two of them rely on you having save files of previous Pokémon titles, and you can’t get one of them depending on which starter you picked.
How do I get the Pokémon Legends: Arceus Chimchar gift Pokémon?
To get this cheeky little chimp, you need to accept Request 20: The Mysterious Will-o’-the-Wisp from Paira in Jubilife Village. This requires you to go to Obsidian Fieldlands, wait until night to follow the will-o’-the-wisp, catch the Chimchar that spawns, then return to Jubilife Village to show it to Paira.
How do I get the Pokémon Legends: Arceus Shiny Ponyta gift Pokémon?
You read that right – you can snag yourself a free shiny Ponyta by speaking to Yota in Jubilife Village and taking on Request 20: A Peculiar Ponyta after reading the blackboard in Professor Laventon’s Lab. Head to Obsidian Fieldlands and scout out the Ponyta of a different colour, catch it, then head back to Yota to complete the quest.
How do I get the Pokémon Legends: Arceus Alolan Vulpix gift Pokémon?
This one requires a bit of patience, as you can’t catch yourself an Alolan Vulpix until the very end of the game. If you’ve managed to snag a Vulpix before, you can head to the Galaxy Building once the credits have rolled to pick up Request 83: Snow-White Vulpix in the Snow.
The request sends you to Alabaster Islands to find Keaka, who asks you to find the five missing Alolan Vulpix. They should be around Veilstone Cape in the Cobalt Coastlands. After you’ve caught ‘em all, head back to Keaka, and he’ll hand over one of these icy beauties to add to your collection.
How do I get the Pokémon Legends: Arceus Cyndaquill, Rowlett, and Oshawott gift Pokémon?
Another endgame treat, if you head to Professor Laventon’s lab in the Galaxy Building after you finish the story, he’ll gift you with the two Pokémon Legends: Arceus starters you didn’t choose at the beginning of the game. So, if you went with Cyndaquill originally, you get a free Rowlett and Oshawott.
How do I get the Pokémon Legends: Arceus Darkrai gift Pokémon?
To get yourself a free Darkrai, you need to have a save file on your Nintendo Switch from Pokémon Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl, and to have beaten the main storyline. After the credits have rolled, just follow these steps.
- Visit the Galaxy Building in Jubilife Village
- Go to the mission board and pick up Request 93: The Darksome Nightmare
- Head over to the marked location in Coronet Highlands at night
- Battle and catch your Darkrai!
How do I get the Pokémon Legends: Arceus Shaymin gift Pokémon?
Like Darkrai, you need to have a save file on your Nintendo Switch from Pokémon Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl, and to have finished the main storyline of the game. Then, you can follow these steps.
- Visit the Galaxy Building in Jubilife Village
- Go to the mission board and pick up Request 92: A Token of Gratitude
- Head out and grab your Shaymin!
