Lucario is one of the most beloved Pokemon since the time it got introduced in the series. It is natural that the fans might want to get their hands on one. But many fans don’t just want a normal form, instead, they want a Shiny Lucario in Pokemon Legends Arceus. And that is exactly what we will see in this guide today. So without further ado let us check how to get a Shiny Lucario in Pokemon Legends Arceus.
How to Get a Shiny Lucario in Pokemon Legends Arceus
There are two ways to get a Shiny Lucario.
- Encountering a Shiny Riolu or a Shiny Lucario
- Using Mass Outbreaks and Space-Time Distortions to catch a Shiny Lucario
Also if possible then you should use a Shiny charm as it helps increase your shiny encounter chances.
Encountering a Shiny Riolu or Lucario
There are two places where you can encounter a Riolu or a Lucario.
- South of Snowfall Hot Springs in Alabaster Islands
- Icebond Falls
You will have to repeatedly encounter multiple Riolu and Lucario here until you end up catching a shiny. The best part is it doubles your chances of getting a Shiny Lucario because if you catch a Shiny Riolu you can easily evolve it.
Using Mass Outbreaks and Space-Time Distortions to catch a Shiny Lucario
If you come across a Lucario Mass Outbreak, it will spawn many Lucario for around 15 minutes. The faster you catch the more it spawns, thus increasing your chances of coming across a Shiny Lucario.
The Space-Time distortions work similarly but are less reliable than Mass outbreaks. Even if they might not be your best bet of catching a shiny, never miss out on a Space-Time Distortion as it spawns many Pokemon and one of them might be a Shiny Riolu or Lucario.
