Posted on November 10, 2021 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch

Pokemon Legends: Arceus has a few bonuses planned for those who have played Pokemon Sword or Pokemon Shield as well as the Pokemon: Let’s Go games.

For Sword and Shield, Pokemon Legends: Arceus players will be able to participate in a research request with a chance to add the Mythical Pokemon Shaymin (Land Forme) to their team. Additionally, a Shaymin Kimono Set will be available.

The request can be accepted in Jubilife Village after viewing the game’s end credits. As for the Shaymin Kimono Set, speak to the clothier after joining the Galaxy Expedition Team to obtain the item.

Shaymin (Land Forme) is “said the blooming of Gracidea flowers confers the power of flight upon this Pokémon and that feelings of gratitude are the message it delivers.” It’s a Gratitude, Grass-type Pokemon coming in at 8″ (0.2 m) tall and weighing 4.6 pounds (2.1 kg).

Other than Sword and Shield, a bonus is also planned for Pokemon Legends: Arceus involving Pokemon: Let’s Go. If you’ve played either title, it’ll be possible to claim a Pikachu Mask and an Eevee Mask by speaking to the clothier after joining the Galaxy Expedition Team.
