There is no breeding Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. Unfortunately, this means players will no longer be able to breed Pokémon to get specific natures, egg moves, IVs and EVs, or shiny Pokémon. Breeding has been a staple of the Pokémon series for many years now, and this is a radical change to the formula.

Fans that enjoy breeding, use it to get competitive Pokémon, or use it for shiny hunting will no longer be able to do so. Likely because of this change, it would seem Ditto is not in Pokémon Legends: Arceus as it was largely used to breed Pokémon thanks to its unique ability.

There are numerous other changes in Pokémon Legends: Arceus that fans can discover. Check out the game and explore the Hisui region before becoming the Sinnoh region!
