Pokemon Legends: Z-A Shiny Charm 1000 battles guide
Posted on 4 weeks ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
We’re back today with another guide on Pokemon Legends: Z-A, this time covering how to quickly reach the 1000 battles needed for the Shiny Charm.
Getting the Shiny Charm in Pokemon Legends: Z-A is fairly simple: complete all of Mable’s research tasks. That doesn’t mean it’s easy, though – many of these research tasks are purposefully repetitive to prevent you from getting the coveted Shiny Charm too early. These are all self-explanatory for the most part; many of the tasks will have you catching Pokemon of a certain type until you’ve caught 50 of every type in the game. The final task most players will need to complete is to win 1000 trainer battles, which as you might expect, takes a very long time. We’ve compiled a list of tips that will hopefully make those 1000 battles pass faster.
