Pokemon Legends: Arceus may not be the open-world that many secretly dream of since it only has several semi-open areas, but it has the merit of upsetting the main mechanics of the saga by introducing new ways to explore and to evolve in the universe of the license.
A few weeks before its release, the game has taken care to offer a first glimpse of the different clans of the Hisui region and to broadcast on social networks short excerpts dedicated to different mechanics, such as the day / night cycle. and seasonal.
Catching Pokémon has never been easier
Today, it is the theme of discretion that is in the spotlight in the communication around Pokémon Legends: Arceus. A few seconds are enough to illustrate how our trainer, or rather our explorer, can increase his collection of pocket creatures with a view to completing the very first Pokédex.
It is therefore armed with prototypes of Poké Balls, made using a kind of wood harvested in the ancient region of Sinnoh, that we can capture the Pokémon that roam the lands of Hisui, in their version traditional or under their new features for some.
Unlike the main games, Pokémon Legends: Arceus adds a new feature, if not retaining others, that allows you to capture Pokémon stealthily, and no longer only by initiating battles against them. For this, and as the extract shows, you will have to be lively and discreet by diving into certain tall grass.
Once nearby, we notice that the Pokémon sport automatic targeting which prevents you from seeing your Poké Ball pass a few centimeters from the creature you want. However, in some biomes, you won't be able to rely on herbs to hide, and you'll have to approach stealthily to avoid scaring them and to optimize your chances of success!
