Pokémon Legends: Arceus has random events throughout its open-world areas, including Mass Outbreaks that vastly increase the spawn rates of certain Pokémon. Players can experience several different randomized events in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, including NPCs and rare monsters in the wilds. However, Mass Outbreaks play a unique role in accelerating player progress in the Pokédex. These events are also much easier to spot with the game’s overworld sprites, as players can quickly locate larger crowds of Pokémon in unusual areas.
Pokémon Legends: Arceus takes place in Ancient Sinnoh, called Hisui, where players must catch every Pokémon to complete their mission from Arceus.

Players must collect resources or obtain money to purchase the items necessary to battle, catch, and interact with Pokémon Legends: Arceus’ many creatures and Mass Outbreaks give them an excellent chance to do so.
