Best Non-Legendary Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

There are many Pokémon to choose from in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and the decision of which one to add to a party can be difficult for players. Some of the new Pokémon added in the Hisui region are impressive, but none more impressive than Hisuian Goodra. Hisuian Goodra stands as the best non-legendary Pokémon that players can get in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.

Hisuian Goodra

Hisuian Goodra has impressive stats, with its lowest being its speed stat. It has massive attack and defense stats and is a great asset to players in battle. Its dual-typing of Steel and Dragon also serves it well, as it has a very long list of resistances, which is a huge perk of having this Pokémon on hand.
