No matter how many Pokemon Championship titles you’ve earned across countless regions in the series so far, there’s always the chance that a wild Pokemon could get the better of you in Pokemon Legends Arceus. If they manage to wipe out your whole team, the screen will fade to black and you’ll faint. But what happens if you faint in Pokemon Legends Arceus? Do you lose items, money, Pokemon or progress? Here’s everything you need to know.
How Do You Black Out or Faint?
If all of your Pokemon run out of HP in a battle, you’ll begin to notice the edge of your screen will begin flashing red. When this happens, if you take took much damage, you’ll black out.
What Happens If You Black Out in Pokemon Legends Arceus
When you black out, the screen will, unsurprisingly, go black and a message will appear on-screen saying: “Everything went black!”
A screen will then appear showing you the items that you dropped when you fainted.
This won’t be everything you had in your inventory, but just a handful of the crafting materials you did have, so it’s not the end of the world. You’ll just need to get out there and find more.
The good news is that you won’t lose any of your Pokemon, key items or any major progress on your adventure. You respawn at your Base Camp where you can embark on your next Research Task for the professor, or just go exploring so you can keep filling out that Pokedex.
That’s everything you need to know on what happens if you faint in Pokemon Legends Arceus. For more tips, tricks and guides, head over to our wiki or see more of our coverage on the game below.
