Pokemon Legends Arceus: How to get Apricorns

If you’ve been playing Pokemon Legends: Arceus, you’ll find out rather quickly that Poke Balls are an essential item for progressing through the game. You’ll need as many as possible because you’ll be tasked with catching a lot of Pokemon using them. The easiest and most efficient way to get a lot of Poke Balls is by crafting them. Apricorns are a required material for crafting Poke Balls, so naturally, you’ll need a lot of those as well. Here’s how to get Apricorns in Pokemon Legends: Arceus.

How to get Apricorns in Pokemon Legends Arceus

Since Apricorns are the main material needed to craft Poke Balls, we’ll need to get as many of them as possible. Luckily, we can easily find them in high quantities as soon as the first main area in the game, the Obsidian Fieldlands.

Apricorns can be found in a few ways, but they are most commonly found growing on trees. You’ll need to look for trees that have orange/brown colored berries growing on them. These are Apricorn trees. These trees can be found throughout the Hisui region, so keep an eye out for anything growing on the branches. You can see a picture of one below.

To collect the Apricorns from the trees, simply call out your Pokemon from its Pokeball with ZR near the tree. Your Pokemon will automatically knock out whatever is in the tree and collect it for you (as long as there is space for it in your satchel).

Apricorn trees typically have about five of this material per tree. You can also find some scattered randomly on the ground, but this is a bit more rare. You can pick these up by standing near them and pressing A.

Sometimes when defeating a wild Pokemon, it will drop a Rotten Apricorn. These cannot be used as crafting materials to make a Poke Ball, but they can be used to distract wild Pokemon to catch them easier.
