Pokemon Legends Arceus has a recognizable pattern. As a result, you would find hundreds of guides that would certainly make the game easier for you to complete. But that is not what Game Freak intended for us. The latest Pokemon title was supposed to be a mysterious campaign, giving us the chance to fight and learn on our own. However, due to an early leak of the retail copy and guides all over, there isn’t much “mystery” left. Anyway, we will also guide you through the basics of choosing a team in the game. This will enable you to decide the best Pokemon for your team! However, for reference, you can always choose to check out our suggestions for the best team at the end of this article.
Basics of Team Building in Pokemon Legends Arceus
There are a few things you need to keep in mind to build the best team. Firstly, you will need to make sure that all Pokemons in your team support each other’s strengths and weaknesses. For example, if a Pokemon is weak towards Ice-type moves, you can appoint a Pokemon which is strong against Ice-type. Another thing to keep in mind is that each region has a Noble Pokemon you will need to battle. So, make sure you include a member in your team who is strong against the Noble of a particular region. Also, note the nature of a Pokemon before adding it to your team – the type of nature affect attack intensities.
