Pokémon Legends: Arceus is one of the most anticipated games of 2022 and marks the start of a new era for Game Freak and The Pokémon Company as the game promises to diverge from the mainline games of the past. Because Pokémon Legends: Arceus is so unique when compared to previous entries, players have been scrambling for any information regarding these titles, and when a massive info dump dropped just a week before release, fans learned that Arceus would be back with a few extras in this entry.

One source responsible for a litany of the leaks released in recent days, Eclipse_tt, states that Arceus and the Arceus plates are both in the latest entry in the series. Arceus plates allow the Legendary Pokémon to change its type depending on which type of plate it holds. There are plates for each of the game’s types. Eclipse_tt’s account was issued a suspension, no doubt concerning leaking a large amount of info on the yet unreleased Pokémon game.
