Does Big Buizel exist? An investigation

I have spent a significant amount of time looking for a large Buizel over the 20 or so hours I’ve played in PokémonLegends: Arceus so far. You may have done that too, looking for a Buizel at least 2 feet, 8 inches tall for a guy named Dorian — he’s got an early request, called Big Buizel, Little Buizel — who is very concerned with Buizel’s size. No, not the size of the Ice Beam that Buizel (and evolved form Floatzel) can shoot out of its butt, but the size of the Buizel doing the act.

I spent the morning searching for a sizable Buizel, one big enough to please Dorian. Did I succeed? Yes. But was it worth the effort? Absolutely not. Anyway, folks: Gather around. This is the story of my journey, in hopes that my struggle will assist you.

I’d been catching Buizels for the entire 18 or so hours I’d been playing at this point, throwing PokéBalls whenever I saw one in the wild. This method was not providing results, save for pastures full of the creatures. This morning, I started the Buizel hunt by scouting locations where I’d seen Buizels before: in Obsidian Fieldlands, that’s Horseshoe Plains, Windspent Run, and Worn Bridge. For Cobalt Coastlands, it’s Aipom Hill and Bathers’ Lagoon. From my research, Obsidian Fieldlands is the best bet — specifically Horseshoe Plains and Worn Bridge.

It’s easily where the most Buizels spawned — including an Alpha Buizel. I spent hours scouring these areas and caught a ton of Pokémon, around 30, before an Alpha Buizel spawned. None of these were large enough for Dorian, unfortunately, except for the
