There are two ways to get Alakazam in this game.

  • Evolving an Abra or a Kadabra into an Alakazam
  • Catching an Alpha Alakazam

Let us learn about both these methods.

Evolving an Abra or a Kadabra into an Alakazam

To evolve a Kadabra into an Alakazam you need a Linking cord. You can buy one from the Merit shop at Jubilife Village. Linking Cord costs 1000 Merit Points that you can earn by returning lost satchels to NPCs.

  1. Buy a Linking Cord from the Merit Shop.
  2. Open your inventory.
  3. Next, use the Linking Cord and choose Kadabra.
  4. This will evolve it into an Alakazam.

Before you evolve them you will have to catch them first.

You can find Abra at the following Locations.

  • Obsidian Fieldlands
    • Windswept Run
    • Sandgem Flat
  • Alabaster Icelands
    • North of Lake Acuity

After catching an Abra evolve it into Kadabra to be able to use the Linking Cord.

You can find Kadabra at the following Locations.

  • Obsidian Fieldlands
    • Sandgem Flat
  • Alabaster Icelands
    • North of Lake Acuity

To improve the chances of catching them easily you can try feeding them their favorite foods.

  • Dazzling Honey
  • Hearty Grains
  • Plump Beans

Catching an Alpha Alakazam in Pokemon Legends Arceus

You can catch an Alpha Alakazam at Sandgem Flats in Obsidian Fieldlands. As mentioned above it is a Psychic-type Pokemon so you should use the following Pokemon to counter it.

  • Scyther
  • Hisuian Typhlosion
  • Gengar
  • Dusknoir
  • Hisuian Zoroark
  • Darkrai
