This is a FAQ page for the Nintendo Switch game Pokémon Legends: Arceus.
How do I unlock Mystery Gift in Pokémon Legends: Arceus?
Mystery Gift is unlocked when you begin the mission A Request from Mai.
How do I Fly with Braviary?
After you unlock Braviary, press left or right on the directional pad to switch to Braviary, then press + to fly upward if you don't automatically start flying. When flying with Braviary, you can press B to dash forward. You can keep tapping B to stay at the same altitude, or hold B to descend while dashing forward. You can also press + to recall Braviary and start falling, then press A before you fall to avoid a crash landing. Make sure to press A before you get too close to the ground. If you are too close to the ground, you can't call Braviary.
How do I save the game?
Press up on the directional pad to go to your satchel, press ZR or ZL to go to your profile, and press A while on the profile to save your game.
How do I change the weather?
When you are on an excursion outside of town, you can go to a camp and rest until morning. This will change the weather for the area. Keep doing this until the area has the desired weather.
My bag is full! What do I do?
If your bag is full, go to an item storage box (at camps in the wild and near the gate in Jubilife Village) to put some of your items in storage.
How do I start a Space-time Distortion?
Go to the area where you want the Space-time Distortion to occur. If the weather is intense sun, snowstorm, or thunderstorm, rest at a camp until morning, and keep doing so until the weather is not intense sun, snowstorm, or thunderstorm.
If the weather is not intense sun, snowstorm, or thunderstorm, a Spacetime Distortion has a small chance of occuring within 5 minutes of time spent in the area without resting at a camp. The longer you stay in the area, the higher the chance that a Space-Time Distortion will occur, and it is guaranteed to occur after 40 minutes. However, if the weather changes to intense sun, snowstorm, or thunderstorm, it can prevent the distortion from occurring, so you might want to rest at a camp until morning to change the weather.
There will be a message if a Space-Time Distortion is beginning to form. You can also keep checking the map to see if a Space-Time Distortion icon has appeared, but be sure to close the map if there is no Space-Time Distortion, because a Space-Time Distortion cannot form while you are looking at the map.
When a Space-Time Distortion has formed, go there and wait. After a while, there will be a rumbling sound, and the Space-Time Distortion will begin. Pokémon will spawn near where you are standing, and there will be rare items scattered on the ground in the distortion area.
