Pokémon Legends: Arceus is the latest adventure in the Pokémon franchise, this time bringing with it a whole new open world, new catching mechanics and more.

While the deep mysteries of Hisui, and which Pokémon you’re going to encounter, are left for you to solve, there are a few parts of the game that you might need a bit of help with, specifically when it comes to rare Pokémon that only spawn in space-time distortions.

Let's get timey-wimey...
