Pokemon Legends Arceus Space-Time Distortion Fields Explained: What They Are & How to Use Them

This Pokemon Legends Arceus Space-Time Distortion Fields guide will explain everything you need to know about this gameplay mechanic. That means we’ll be explaining exactly what they are, how you can use them, what exclusive Pokemon lie within, and where and when they seem to spawn. So, without further ado, let’s just get right into it.

What Space-Time Distortion Fields Are in Pokemon Legends Arceus

Distortion Fields are circular areas that have a mysterious energy that surrounds them. They’re all purple-y and when one opens up nearby you’ll get an on-screen notification to let you know. They’re also marked on your map with a swirling icon.

Inside a Distortion Field, players can find rare Pokemon, rare items and even Pokemon that cannot be found anywhere else. They also spawn hordes of Pokemon, making them a great place to grind out your Research Tasks.

As such, whenever one does open, it’s highly recommended you go and check it out. You never know what you might find.

How to Use Them

When you receive the notification that a Pokemon Legends Arceus Distortion Field has opened up nearby, make your way towards it and walk into the field itself.

You can now explore this area, pick up any rare items you find, and catch any rare Pokemon that are lurking inside.

It’s worth noting that alongside the Distortion Field-exclusive Pokemon, you can also catch some incredibly rare, standard Pokemon such as the starters in Legends Arceus, Eevee, and more.

Where do Space-Time Distortion Fields Spawn?
