How To Check Friendship In Pokemon Legends Arceus

Evolving certain Pokemon, such as Pichu, requires a specific friendship level to work. This guide on How To Check Friendship In Pokemon Legends Arceus will tell you everything you need to know about checking your compatibility with specific Pokemon so you know if you are close to being able to evolve them.

Pichu is not the only Pokemon in Pokemon Legends Arceus that requires a friendship level to evolve. A couple of Eevee’s evolutions in Pokemon Legends Arceus also need you to have a high friendship rating with Eevee, other Pokemon also have a similar requirement. It’s not the first time this mechanic has been used, it has featured in most of the mainstream, traditional Pokemon games. However, in each game the exact method of checking a Pokemon’s friendship level changes slightly as you usually need to find a certain NPC. As the Arceus world is a lot less populated than regular Pokemon games, it’s not so much finding the NPC, but unlocking the option to check compatibility.
