For the first time in the Pokemon series, Pokemon Legends: Arceus allows players to craft man-made items. Normally, man-made items such as Poke Balls or Potions could only be bought at Poke Marts or found lying about in the wild. Now, trainers still have the option of purchasing items from the store in Jubilife Village, but trainers also have the Crafting mechanic at their disposal.
Poke Balls are an absolute necessity in Pokemon Legends: Arceus thanks to the Pokedex's research tasks. Thus, it's easier to just use the Crafting Kit and make Poke Balls instead of rushing back to Jubilife Village to buy more. There are different types of Poke Balls in Legends: Arceus, but they will always require a type of Tumblestone and an Apricorn. Players should get into the habit of collecting Apricorns as they explore the vast Hisui region so that they can craft wherever, whenever.

Apricorns were first introduced in Pokemon Gold/Silver and made a return in HeartGold/SoulSilver and Sword/Shield Expansion Pass. Trainers could inspect certain trees and sometimes get an Apricorn instead of a Berry. There are seven types of Apricorns, but only one type of Apricorn in Pokemon Legends: Arceus.
Originally, Apricorns were given to a man named Kurt in Johto's Azalea Town. Depending on the color of the Apricorn, Kurt could make different types of Poke Balls to make catching Pokemon easier. In the Pokemon lore, Apricorns were used in the creation of Poke Balls before modern Poke Balls came to be. This is reflected in Pokemon Legends: Arceus, where Apricorns are one of the crafting materials for Poke Balls since modern technology does not exist in the Hisui Region.
