Catching Alpha Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus is a solid challenge no matter where players are at in gameplay, and many are showing off their favorite catches on Twitter. Alpha Pokémon, which are much larger and stronger than standard common encounters throughout the Hisui region, can be powerful assets to any Pokémon team. Because of this, finding these Pokémon both in their standard variation and as Shiny variants has become a new challenge for players to focus on.
Pokémon Legends: Arceus has put a fresh and exciting spin on the Pokémon game series with new open-world-inspired gameplay and quest-driven narrative. Players are able to wander five vast map locations that make up Pokémon's historic Hisui region, exploring caves, plains, and bodies of water in search of Pokémon to capture. Scattered throughout the map, players will find both static and random Alpha Pokémon encounters. Static encounters will always possess an Alpha Pokémon when players leave and return to the location, whereas all other Pokémon have a small chance of randomly spawning as Alpha, keeping players on their toes as they travel.
