How to Break Rocks in Pokémon Legends: Arceus
As Trainers explore the vast world of Pokémon Legends: Arceus, they may come across large boulders blocking their path, and the only way to progress along the trail is by breaking the rocks. In past titles, players would usually have to have the Hidden Move «Rock Smash» to advance past rocky obstacles. However, Arceus takes a much simpler approach. To break these obstructive stones in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Trainers, only need to send out a partner Pokémon in their party to do the work.
To throw out a Pokémon, players need to select the Pokémon they would like to break the rocks and press the X button. Then, holding ZR, Trainers can aim near or directly at the boulders and hurl their Pokéball. Whichever Pokémon appears will immediately begin to smash down the stone barrier in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.

As mentioned above, any Pokémon can perform this feat, as Rock Smash is no longer a necessity in Arceus. For more immersion, players could use fitting boulder-breaking Pokémon like Geodude, yet, in conclusion, even a small, cuddly Wurmple could do the job as well.
