Pokémon Legends: Arceus takes us on a journey to a new universe, discovering the myths and legends of the region of Hisui, ancestor of Sinnoh. You will get to know many Pokémon, including legendary ones that you can meet through various adventures in order to complete your Pokédex. However, it may well be that a glitch prevents some players from achieving this goal…
Guardians of the Split Lakes
After completing the main adventure with the Time Rift storyline, it will be time for you to search for the plates in order to meet the Great Sinnoh, aka Arceus. This quest, called “In the footsteps of legends” will take you to meet various legendary Pokémon including the guardians of the lakes: Créhelf, Créfollet and Créfadet, which will give you the plate of the lakes and that it will be possible to capture in order to complete the mythical Pokédex.
Little problem… A glitch split some lake keepers. So much the better you will say, but if you catch two Créfollet, the game will consider that you have caught two guards. This will have the consequence that one of the two remaining Legendary Pokémon will disappear.
Before knowing about this glitch, some players then jumped at the chance to catch several copies of these legendary guardians, before obviously realizing that the other two did not appear…
How not to fall into the trap?
Once again, this is a glitch which is quite rare. Moreover, you now know that you will unfortunately have to settle fora single copy of each guardian in order to accomplish your ultimate mission.
If you’ve ever been trapped by the glitch, it’s not too late. It is possible totrade your Pokémon with players around the world. All you have to do is find a charitable soul or a player also trapped by the glitch in order to exchange the guardians and thus complete the Pokédex.
In any case, with or without the glitch, the plate quest will complete as long as you capture three guardians of the lakes. So you won’t be stuck forever looking for a Créfollet, a Créhelf, or a Créfadet.
