In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, the ability to purchase all the Potions and items needed for battle is a thing of the future. In the ancient region of Hisui, which is to later become Sinnoh, players must prepare for battle by farming for resources and crafting items first.
No longer can you purchase Poké Balls and Potions from the Poké Mart, and materials like Medicinal Leek, Tumblestone, and Apricorn must be sought after instead. Through adventuring around the open-world areas of Hisui, players will gather materials that they can later use for crafting.
To craft important items for filling out your Pokédex, you're going to need a decent amount of Apricorn. Here's how to get Apricorn and what you can craft with it in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.
How to Get Apricorn
To get your hands on Apricorn in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, you will need to venture into Obsidian Fieldlands. Whilst here, you can throw a Poké Ball towards any trees to summon that Pokémon and have them knock down various materials from the tree.
This includes, but is not limited to, Apricorn! Once your Pokémon has done all the hard work, materials will be automatically added to your inventory.
All Apricorn Recipes
Once you've got pockets filled with plenty of Apricorn in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, you will need to return to a workbench, either at your Base Camp or in Jubilife Village. From here, you can use your Apricorn to craft one of the most important items in all of Hisui... Poké Balls!
Using five Apricorn and five Tumblestone, you'll be able to craft a Poké Ball and then go back out into Hisui to catch Pokémon using it. Apricorn can also be used to craft multiple types of Poké Ball, listed below:
