That feeling of being in the red near fainting and throwing out your pokémon to start the fight as it's literally your only hope of getting away safely. It's incredible how fresh and alive this game feels after 25 years of the same pokémon games.
I was COMPLETELY blown away when my Luxray and my Eevee started talking to each other. And then I was BLOWN again when I went out into the wild and there was just a wild Onyx sleeping. Game Freak did SUCH a good job this time with making all of these pokemon feel like actual living beings.
Gotten in a few hours of playtime, and it’s definitely one of the funnest Pokémon games I’ve played in a while. It’s so easy to get lost in and a much needed shake up for the series.
The amount of personality They added to each Pokémon is great. I like how glaceon was more talkative while jolteon looked ready to fight and Sylveon was sleeping. I hope that’s something that Pokémon intended and that they add more of this kind of thing to more games. Makes them seem more real and you can even have individuals with different personality traits due to having different natures. Would be really cool. Great Video man!!definitely will use eevees to round out my starting team until I figure out what I want to use

This is 100% true. I got my Umbreon at level 12 and Espeon around 14-15. Got a Golbat at level 22 and Crobat was already primed to evolve and its because of using the Pokemon to collect berries and break rocks etc for items!
Just for you to try out if you want, I ran around having my eevee do task such as hitting trees for apricorns and ores and it seemed to significantly raise it's friendship. I never used it in a battle but by level 19 it was ready to evolve into Sylveon. G'luck and have fun!
Also letting them out of their pokeball and talking to them seems to also increase friendship. But I guess it's more time efficient to just throw them at trees and rocks to do your bidding and get something out of it lol
I am also trying to get an alpha shiny eevee or eeveelution to show to my friends there's a chance I can get one of those in obsidian field lands or STD
I've found using the Eevee to collect materials for you helps as well, also chucking it out and speaking to it. All 3 of my friendship evo's happened before level 14.
Sane here! Glad because I didn't know how the evolution with sylveon worked. Lol I waited for night to evolve my eevee when it could evolve. My second eevee was supposed to be a Espeon but turned into a Sylveon instead- which I gladly accepted. Would've done the same mistake because I'm aiming to get a espeon now
Update. Spoke with my Zubat frequently, and it was able to evolve into Crobat as soon as it evolved into Golbat. Speaking to them seems to be OP for increasing friendship.
I've noticed one eevee loves to hang out in the tall grass across the little pond where the Bidoofs spawn, and will spawn with them, but its hard to lure outside the grass, thus hard to judge when to aim. Also when leaving the camp if you hug the left cliff and work your way down towards the pond you end up right near the grass so you can dive in quickly if you spot an teevee. You got me obsessed. 5 hours plus into the tutorial and im halfway to my goal of an army of eevolutions.
As someone who can’t play on release, your videos are the only thing keeping me going man. Please. Keep rapid firing these out so my heart doesn’t stop!
The Eevee I caught first (which was female, I was so happy about that!) evolved into Umbreon at lvl 15. The ones I evolved into Espeon and Sylveon were both at higher levels before I could evolve it. I think I just used my first Eevee to do all the stuff, so friendship leveled up faster.
Yeah I found Eevee almost instantly in the start when I was supposed to be catching the first lot. Was so happy I found him, had no idea I could find them
I actually got a thunderstone in the Heartwood that had just spawned on the ground, so if you're really lucky that could be another way to get a Jolteon early on without needing to use merit points.
As someone who's favorite Pokemon is in fact Glaceon, thank you very much for this! I won't lie I'm slightly tempted to just grind the satchels now for that ice stone
I love you for this. I always try to get a full team of eeveelutions as soon as possible in every game they're available. I stumbled across one very early on in the tutorial. Knowing I can actually get all of them by like mission 8 is great
Literally just picked up my copy. Can’t wait to start! Love your videos. This man sends out content like its nothing. Take a good break soon man you deserve it!
I love all the attention to even the most minute little details, like the head tracking when the trainer crouches. There's so many new animations and interactions in this game and it's amazing. The praise this game is getting is very deserved. Best Pokemon game released in a very long time, probably ever, by a large margin.
My friend was chomping at the bit to get a Sylveon as soon as possible. I wanted a Vaporeon myself. I’m glad you can get them so early, it’ll make completing the ‘Dex easier later.
I absolutely adore the amount of detail and personality they gave all the Pokémon in this game. It really helps enhance the immersive experience, ya know? I love that you can bring out your entire party and just vibe in a circle, and the interactions with wild Pokémon. Seeing them sleep or sit down, eat the berry, or even chase you down makes them feel real. I can see why it's best to avoid spoilers for your first Space-Time distortion. My first experience had me confused, slightly panicked, and overwhelmed in a good way. I was actually sad when it ended cause I enjoy the excitement. Also Umbreon and Jolteon are my #1 and #2 favorite Eeveelutions also Although my first Eeveelution I aimed for was Sylveon because I'd have the dark type overlap with Samurott, but also because Sylveon is a solid fairy type.
There’s actually a icy rock just like the mossy rock to evolve into glaceon as well just like in the original games but I believe it’s MUCH later in the game
Re: Sky Tumble Stones, you can actually get them as soon as you can get the regular ones. Instead of heading straight out from the first Base Camp, go right through the rocks and you'll quickly make your way up on top of the cliffs to where there's Luxio/Luxray and Drifblims at night. Probably 5 or 6 Sky stones in that area, fully reachable as long as you can avoid battles
Dude! This helped me out so much! I had no idea about that area and farmed it like crazy. I ended up with a handful of thunder and water stones! Thank you!!!
Thank you!! None of the guides ive seen so far mention the spawn table so I had just been resetting morning and daytime and nothing has been changing. Clearing them out certainly sped up the process. Finally caught my first Eevee!
I am LOVING this game!! One of my biggest complaints about the mythicals having to wait for a specific event in order to get them. This game makes one obtainable, by putting in a ton of work for it, and that just makes it so rewarding! Now if I don’t get it, there’s no excuse that I missed the event because of work or something, and I feel like I EARNED it. Random comment, but whatever. Love your videos!!!
I got a outbreak of Eevee and, needless to say, I went nuts and caught as many as I could, as quickly as I could. I was trying to see if a shiny would pop up but, now I have like 7+ Eevees so, still a win win
If you’re trying to get a shiny eevee if you find another outbreak save your game and reset every time you don’t get a shiny I managed to get 4 shinys on one playthogh so far
@@jonathonlilbourne9264 at the time, I didn't know resetting outbreaks was a thing but now I have three shiny Eevees (and many other shiny Pokemon) thanks to the outbreak method. I appreciate the comment though, it would have helped a lot if I didn't already know. I'm hoping to get enough Eevees for all the evos
The one from the tutorial ran away from me but knowing how I can get them is awesome. Thank you so much!! My daughter is going to freak out when she sees a dozen Eevee’s running around 😍. I’m have to let her evolve them of course 😅
I caught the alpha bibarel and put it next to the regular one and I about died from the cuteness when they both plopped into their sitting positions. Sleeping samurott too, oh my god. And their little animations and the way they watch you is so great. I had a haunter out in battle and it kept looking at me when it did a move like "Keheheheh >:D"
I was casually strolling through the starting area and saw an eevee walking next to a bidoof. I scared it off by accident and hunted for a new one, eventually finding two more! Umbreon and Espeon here I come
Glaceon is so cute, it's a shame it's one of the hardest/latest to get. I knew about the spot, I found it by chance while exploring, but never saw an eevee there ever again, so I had to defeat the bidoofs, I wouldn't have thought about that! Now I can catch more eevees! Thanks for the explanations!
Wow, thanks for this. I never would have known. I just relay on space- time distortions for my variety of eevees but this is so cool. I just lack espeon now.
I evolved my eevees into umbreon & espeon before they even reached lvl 20. I think I evolved them lvl 16-18. I think sending them out to knock on trees and rocks and feeding them berries boosts friendship a lot.
Not only are you creating really thorough and helpful guides but they are also really enjoyable. You clearly love the game a lot and it shows < 3 can’t wait to see more!!! Came for tips and tricks. Stayed for awesome vibe and welcoming attitude < 3
I just started playing legends Arceus for the first time the other day, and these guides are super helpful. I’ve played all the other Pokemon switch games, so I’m used to the mechanics, but they still help me understand this game ❤
Austin John really is THE GOAT. I looked at so many guides on how catch Eevees and they all just said Horseshoe Plains, some said daytime only. I would spend 15 minute in Horseshoe Plains each time. Then Austin John actually shows us the exact location and how to respawn, and I caught 5 eevees within 15 minutes. I think Austin John doesnt just make guides for content. But he genuinely is curious on the best way to play & wanna share that with us. And that’s why he has the best guides!!!
it is the same spawn rate as it is the same encounter table. And i found it to be faster to just respawn and sleep in teh first area instead of checking both areas. especially before Wyrdeer.
Thanks for all this content that's spoiler free! My preorder copy was delayed so I'm really glad I get the chance to watch these spoiler free videos while I wait, really helps prepare me for the fun I'm gonna have! Thanks a ton man, just make sure to take care of yourself sometime ^^
If you grab the black stones where the sky stones are there is a rare chance to drop thunder stones there as well, its a really rare drop but you don't have to go through the hassle of merit points to get it and it will allow you to get jolteon before the Kleavor encounter
You know the funny part? I couldn't get a single eevee and when I gave up I got a space time distortion caught 6 eevees looked at the map and there was a mass outbreak of eevees
Did this this morning, took me about an hour, maybe more to catch all the Eevee's I needed. Only had 1 double Eevee spawn and most of mine spawned during the day, in comparison to at night but well worth doing. Thanks Austin for the video.
My fav Eeveelution is Umbreon, so I've got all of them (both caught and evolved), all but Umbreon, which I evolved by giving him berries and putting him to win easy fights. Half-game, I thought my Sylveon was strong so after the credits I took it out to train it and level it up even with the rest of my team and surprise, it was a scam hahahahahaha same happened with most of the other Eeveelutions, then my hope was on Umbreon but when the moment of truth came, it was even weaker than the others hahahaha so dissapointing, but hey, I already made it's pokédex entry and I'm doing all the rest of the Eeveelutions' and the normal initial Eevee, to finally put them in a box. 😅
AustinJohn I hope you see this. This video was an inspiration to me. As a child playing Original Pokémon I always dreamed of collecting all the Eeveeloutions. So seeing that this could be done without trading or cheating was so amazing. After several hours of in game farming and story I just got my final Eeveeloution “Glaceon”. I just am beyond stoked with having all of them and taking pictures of them all together. Thank you for all the amazing content you put out it never seizes to amaze me how dedicated a content creator you are. Thank you again for this video and all your videos! 💛
I must've come back to this vid like 5 times lol you make all this look so easy haha. Thank you again Austin John! ALSO: My first ever Eevee catch was an alpha. It was in Obsidian Fields and I haven't seen an alpha Eevee since! The hunt is on!! Thank you , thank you. Ps. I'm loving your merch. I'm grabbing something as soon as my beach-arse wallet will let me 😄 haha
You should go into Space-TIme Distortions whenever one appears because not only will you find rare items like evolution stones and other evolution items but also randomly encounter Pokémon - among them the Eeveelutions. I caught an Espion during one of them and battled other eeveelutions as well.
Yeah, I caught an Evee during the tutorial and I was so excited to get Espeon, and then it evolved into a Sylvion because I was silly and didn't get rid of Baby doll eyes, which is fine, but I was still sad. I'm also pretty certain that you can get Thunderstones by breaking the sparkling black stones. Edit: I also got lucky and there was an Evee mass outbreak really early, and all the Evee were male, I kid you not, I have a pasture half full of Evee and they're all Male.
Thank you so much for this video! I am so going to want to have a team of all Eeveelutions! The fact that they can be both regular and alpha means double the fun with the Eeveelutions.
OMG I am so glad I do not have the game yet and saw this. I have always dreamed of having a team of Eevees that I raise to be each different evolution. The fact that I can do this makes me insanely happy and I cannot wait to get it! Thank you so much! My favorites are Vaporeon, Leafeon, and Glaceon. We'll see if I have the patience to get that ice stone early lol.
Man 2022 has gotten off too a good start so far.. there is soooo much to play that it’s hard to dedicate time to each and every amazing title so far + games I myself love so much.. Funny thing to me is that back at the Pokémon Legends Arceus Announcement / Reveal, I saw the game and was blown away by what it was and the Hype for me automatically shot to 100+ and I was sooo excited but at the same time I was sooo bummed out cus I thought to myself “Man if the game looks like this then it has to at the very least be like 5 or so years out!! It looks like they barley started production on the game.. the damn grass and environment looks soo flat.! But man once it comes out it is going to be one hell of a fun Pokémon game I cannot wait to play” and then immediately thought “I honestly hate it when they announce games that are so far out only to then go into complete darkness for like a year and a half and only leave breadcrumbs here and there to the point to where everyone forgets about the game until we see another trailer and be like Oh Yeah that game is in the works huh.. only to not see it again for a few more years..” (Looking at YOU BOTW2!! Like how the hell do they go from “BOTW2 originally started off as another DLC project for BOTW but we kept adding new things / features and kept coming up with all these ideas that we thought why not just turn it into a sequel? This one is made of all assets from BOTW as the foundation and everything is there so it would not take too long at all to complete it” and yet here we are with still NO RELEASE DATE!!) Anyways.. those thoughts were replaced with confusion when I saw the “Coming Early 2022” I thought to myself “WHAT THE HELL?!?” “Oh this game is definitely getting delayed.. sadly” But I preordered the second it was available and between this and Dying Light 2 & Horizon 2 on PS5 + Uncharted Thieves Collection … PLUS I FREAKIN LOVE Playing Madden 22 so it’s been hard setting aside time for all these amazing titles.. what a way to start the year! And Legends Arceus really is like Pokemon’s BOTW.. it may not be the best looking game on Switch or a decent looking game at that Imo But it is fun / fresh as hell and extremely addicting to play.. I only hope they build on this formula and it basically becomes what Origins did to the Assassins Creed Series where it completely Changed the identity of the the series.. but I hope LA does it for the better.. And if we ever were to either get a follow up to Legends Arceus or for the new titles to follow suit I hope that Nintendo gives them WAY More time to develop this game so that the graphics can be mind blowing and there can be so many more great ideas and maybe ALL POKÉMON in 1 game and idk maybe hopefully finally have a damn Pokémon game LAUNCH WITH SUPPORT FOR HOME!!! I got a Totodile I been wanting to use for the longest time but he just sits there as nothing is compatible with him yet.. Only way to go is up for Legends..
you're such a legend, I love you content. Simple, direct and smooth. I got my togekiss on my 2nd try and 1st ball, thanks to you! I cannot believe the time you've been spending doing these videos, since you've completed everything in the first part. I am doing the same, being patient until my next region. Keep it up|
it was really cute how excited you got at them "sitting" on command. and i felt the same thanks for so many details. i have a few eevees by now, but i for example didn't know that you could evolve some with the help of those rocks.
There are also other stones you can get from the tumblestones, the blue ones can also drop dawn stones, the black one drops dusk stones and moon stones, and the red one can also drop a shiny stone
This, without a doubt, has to be the absolute BEST Pokémon game that I've ever had the pleasure to play. I've not even defeated Kleavor yet (because I'm a little scared lol, not sure what level he is, so grinding up my level to mid 30s) also no ride Pokémon yet either. However, I do not feel that my gameplay has been hindered in anyway because I've not progressed, (in previous games you couldn't get past a NPC because you hadn't defeated a gym leader, etc) the Obsidean fieldlands are so vast, it feels boundless. I truly hope the Pokémon company/Nintendo/GameFreak make future games in this similar fashion. It was a real hit or miss for them to make something so different to previous generations. For me, this is a massive hit. I'm not bored within a few hours of gameplay like with every other Pokémon game. I love this game
After I evolved my eevees I went straight for the alpha blissy and caught it. I was able to level them each up pretty high in the first two areas and got the stones I needed in a few time distortions. Thank you, John, for helping make my Eevee team dream come true.
this guide was helpful and also the reason why both glaceons where talking to each other is because you throw the pokeball at it and started to talk to each other lol its so cute!
I actually found a thunder stone in one of the black tumblestones. So it is possible to get Jolteon without the merit system. Thanks for the videos and keep up the good work!
if you are looking for high level Eeve's I recommend looking in distortion fields I always at least see 3 spawn at around lvl 45 through out the duration of the time distortion.
I haven’t touched a Pokémon game since Diamond for the DS, so I decided to use my voucher for this game. I was able to follow your instructions and I was able to get all of the eevee evolutions within about a span of four hours! This game has exceeded my expectations for what a Pokémon game could be.
Thx soooo much in telling where to find evolutions stones without having to collect mp. I got my alpha eevee to evolve to vaporeon and I almost got all of the eevee evolutions in the beginning of the game. I’ve always wanted to have one of the eevee evolution on my team at the beginning. This is the first that I ever took my sweet time in enjoying a game like this! Thx so much
Probably the nest thing about this game is how much its been switched up gameplay wise. Like...when was the last time I had to look up stuff for Eevee? Like WAT? BUT its a good thing. I feel like its truly a new experience just with some mechanics and the pokemon that Ive always loved.
Yup, I had an espeon, umbreon, and a flareon for a while on my playthrough. It's nice that these are available early in the game as a decent option for many of the types. If given the choice, definitely go vaporeon, especially if you didn't take oshawatt. Then teach it water pulse, shadow ball, and ice beam. This will give you type coverage against the majority of the biggest pests in the game. Most of the aggressive pokemon that are everywhere (looking at you geodude, ghastly, and drifloon) are rock, ground, flying, or ghost typing. Then pick up a Graveler of your own early on to counter the shinx and poison types that are everywhere and you're pretty much good to go. Machoke is readily available and has a solid move pool as well with taught moves. The elemental punches are really powerful in this game.
Vaporeon is also great because it is a tank. Very few non-grass, non-electric pokemon have grass or electric moves. So as long as you don't throw Vaporeon out against Luxray, Vaporeon can absorb hits readily with it's extremely high health pool. Combined with it's great move list with great coverage options, Vaporeon is probably the most powerful generalist available in right from the first zone. You can get a water stone with 1000 merit points, which can be obtained by picking up lost satchels.
One pro tip for Arceus, that I wish I had known earlier, is that you can release your captured pokemon at the pastures and the game rewards you with the "grit" items of various quality. You can get all types including the rocks. Doing this gave me way more grit items than I needed to take all my pokemon to EV level 10 in all stats. Once you have more than you need, they actually sell for a considerable amount. The seeds of mastery likewise sell for a lot and eventually you'll have a surplus of them.
I’ve never felt affection for my Pokémon more than in this game because it really feels like I need them to literally survive.
Yeah most games before this there's definitely a disconnect from your pokemon on your squad minus being utilities in battle
To bad the moves Return and Frustration doesn’t come back.
All my pokemon have bad defenses, so they're dieing every battle
@@diegodejong4071 Relatable, especially the ghosts that get hit by dark type moves and getting backhanded by every Alpha mon.
That feeling of being in the red near fainting and throwing out your pokémon to start the fight as it's literally your only hope of getting away safely. It's incredible how fresh and alive this game feels after 25 years of the same pokémon games.

I love the unscripted stuff in your videos, and your appreciation for the little details, like the eeveelutions sitting.
that caught me REALLY off-guard lol
bruh that part is cute
The Eevee I caught first (which was female, I was so happy about that!) evolved into Umbreon at lvl 15. The ones I evolved into Espeon and Sylveon were both at higher levels before I could evolve it. I think I just used my first Eevee to do all the stuff, so friendship leveled up faster.
Yeah I found Eevee almost instantly in the start when I was supposed to be catching the first lot. Was so happy I found him, had no idea I could find them
Same!
Same! I found him during the tutorial
I did as well… but I wasn’t used to the controls yet, and the double eevee spawn ran away from me.
AlfredEiji me tooo, only I had a single ever. I was so upset! I’m 12 hrs in and have not seen another eevee yet!
I actually got a thunderstone in the Heartwood that had just spawned on the ground, so if you're really lucky that could be another way to get a Jolteon early on without needing to use merit points.
I feel like I got mine from stones cant remember though, but it was my first evo stone
I got 1 evolution stone randomly.
I've played the game for an hour and I can really appreciate how much they've improves on facial expressions and movement for npcs and pokemon alike.
The tip on ridding out of the fairy move was very helpful. I was hoping for my Eevee to evolve Umbreon and got disappointed when it became Sylveon.
That's why I save before evolving any eeveelution with friendship just in case. I messed up on a few before learning my lesson.
As someone who's favorite Pokemon is in fact Glaceon, thank you very much for this! I won't lie I'm slightly tempted to just grind the satchels now for that ice stone
im going to wait until i can get a shiny eevee or an alpha eevee.
I love you for this. I always try to get a full team of eeveelutions as soon as possible in every game they're available. I stumbled across one very early on in the tutorial. Knowing I can actually get all of them by like mission 8 is great
Literally just picked up my copy. Can’t wait to start! Love your videos. This man sends out content like its nothing. Take a good break soon man you deserve it!
I love all the attention to even the most minute little details, like the head tracking when the trainer crouches. There's so many new animations and interactions in this game and it's amazing. The praise this game is getting is very deserved. Best Pokemon game released in a very long time, probably ever, by a large margin.
My friend was chomping at the bit to get a Sylveon as soon as possible. I wanted a Vaporeon myself. I’m glad you can get them so early, it’ll make completing the ‘Dex easier later.
Vaporeon bottle
I absolutely adore the amount of detail and personality they gave all the Pokémon in this game. It really helps enhance the immersive experience, ya know? I love that you can bring out your entire party and just vibe in a circle, and the interactions with wild Pokémon. Seeing them sleep or sit down, eat the berry, or even chase you down makes them feel real.
I can see why it's best to avoid spoilers for your first Space-Time distortion. My first experience had me confused, slightly panicked, and overwhelmed in a good way. I was actually sad when it ended cause I enjoy the excitement.
Also Umbreon and Jolteon are my #1 and #2 favorite Eeveelutions also
Although my first Eeveelution I aimed for was Sylveon because I'd have the dark type overlap with Samurott, but also because Sylveon is a solid fairy type.
There’s actually a icy rock just like the mossy rock to evolve into glaceon as well just like in the original games but I believe it’s MUCH later in the game
there is, but the point of the video was getting these pokemon, before beating the 1st boss/during the tutorial and how to do so.
yeah, i believe it's in the last region
yes! it’s found in the underground ice caves!
Re: Sky Tumble Stones, you can actually get them as soon as you can get the regular ones. Instead of heading straight out from the first Base Camp, go right through the rocks and you'll quickly make your way up on top of the cliffs to where there's Luxio/Luxray and Drifblims at night. Probably 5 or 6 Sky stones in that area, fully reachable as long as you can avoid battles
Dude! This helped me out so much! I had no idea about that area and farmed it like crazy. I ended up with a handful of thunder and water stones! Thank you!!!
Thank you!! None of the guides ive seen so far mention the spawn table so I had just been resetting morning and daytime and nothing has been changing. Clearing them out certainly sped up the process. Finally caught my first Eevee!
I am LOVING this game!! One of my biggest complaints about the mythicals having to wait for a specific event in order to get them. This game makes one obtainable, by putting in a ton of work for it, and that just makes it so rewarding! Now if I don’t get it, there’s no excuse that I missed the event because of work or something, and I feel like I EARNED it. Random comment, but whatever.
Love your videos!!!
May not want to spoil the game when it's only just released.
@@I_was_a_Bullfrog the name is in the title of the game… I can’t help it if an idiot gets “spoiled” by not being able to put two and two together.
I wonder when they’re gonna make the rest of the eveelutions. I’d live to see a dragon and a poison mock-up.

I got a outbreak of Eevee and, needless to say, I went nuts and caught as many as I could, as quickly as I could. I was trying to see if a shiny would pop up but, now I have like 7+ Eevees so, still a win win
If you’re trying to get a shiny eevee if you find another outbreak save your game and reset every time you don’t get a shiny I managed to get 4 shinys on one playthogh so far
@@jonathonlilbourne9264 at the time, I didn't know resetting outbreaks was a thing but now I have three shiny Eevees (and many other shiny Pokemon) thanks to the outbreak method. I appreciate the comment though, it would have helped a lot if I didn't already know. I'm hoping to get enough Eevees for all the evos
You need 5 of each Eeveelution to complete the pokedex so you can just evolve those eevees into whatever eevelution you still need more of.
@@MrGhosta5 yup! I have been I think the only one I still need a couple of is Espeon and leafeon? Not sure 😅
The Glaceons talking to each other warmed my heart so much. So much care that Game freak made the Pokemon in this game feel REAL than the others.
The one from the tutorial ran away from me but knowing how I can get them is awesome. Thank you so much!! My daughter is going to freak out when she sees a dozen Eevee’s running around 😍. I’m have to let her evolve them of course 😅
I caught the alpha bibarel and put it next to the regular one and I about died from the cuteness when they both plopped into their sitting positions. Sleeping samurott too, oh my god. And their little animations and the way they watch you is so great. I had a haunter out in battle and it kept looking at me when it did a move like "Keheheheh >:D"
Am I the only one that's enjoying Austin's happiness with this game in each of his videos?
Your reaction to the Glaceons sitting is SO gorgeous! Thanks for the wonderful videos, as always!
I was casually strolling through the starting area and saw an eevee walking next to a bidoof. I scared it off by accident and hunted for a new one, eventually finding two more! Umbreon and Espeon here I come
Glaceon is so cute, it's a shame it's one of the hardest/latest to get.
I knew about the spot, I found it by chance while exploring, but never saw an eevee there ever again, so I had to defeat the bidoofs, I wouldn't have thought about that! Now I can catch more eevees! Thanks for the explanations!
The fact you can take out all your Pokémon at once is just incredible.
* w * Yessss~
Wow, thanks for this. I never would have known. I just relay on space- time distortions for my variety of eevees but this is so cool. I just lack espeon now.
I evolved my eevees into umbreon & espeon before they even reached lvl 20. I think I evolved them lvl 16-18. I think sending them out to knock on trees and rocks and feeding them berries boosts friendship a lot.
Not only are you creating really thorough and helpful guides but they are also really enjoyable. You clearly love the game a lot and it shows < 3 can’t wait to see more!!! Came for tips and tricks. Stayed for awesome vibe and welcoming attitude < 3
My first ever shiny in this game was a Eevee in that exact first spot
Full odds I had not even finished the game yet being one of my favorite Pokemon I was beyond ecstatic I think I was foaming at the mouth
I just started playing legends Arceus for the first time the other day, and these guides are super helpful. I’ve played all the other Pokemon switch games, so I’m used to the mechanics, but they still help me understand this game ❤
Thank you so much. I've been trying to catch Eevee for hours and after watching this I caught it in less than 30 minutes. Thank you so much.
Was struggling to decide what to evolve my alpha eevie to. The Glaceon is adorable. Cant wait to get another alpha to work on getting umbreon.
“That’s my big boy Kleavor”
Kleavor: actually I’m fema-
Austin: MOVING ON
Austin John really is THE GOAT. I looked at so many guides on how catch Eevees and they all just said Horseshoe Plains, some said daytime only. I would spend 15 minute in Horseshoe Plains each time. Then Austin John actually shows us the exact location and how to respawn, and I caught 5 eevees within 15 minutes. I think Austin John doesnt just make guides for content. But he genuinely is curious on the best way to play & wanna share that with us. And that’s why he has the best guides!!!
you can also catch them on the other side of the pond in the grass there, its a much higher chance than the bit you showed at the start
it is the same spawn rate as it is the same encounter table. And i found it to be faster to just respawn and sleep in teh first area instead of checking both areas. especially before Wyrdeer.
1:27 - "You caught Bidoof unawares!" - That mistake is still in the game.
Thanks for all this content that's spoiler free! My preorder copy was delayed so I'm really glad I get the chance to watch these spoiler free videos while I wait, really helps prepare me for the fun I'm gonna have! Thanks a ton man, just make sure to take care of yourself sometime ^^
hope you receive your copy soon :)
If you grab the black stones where the sky stones are there is a rare chance to drop thunder stones there as well, its a really rare drop but you don't have to go through the hassle of merit points to get it and it will allow you to get jolteon before the Kleavor encounter
Your smile at the end though. Just tells how much you enjoy creating these vids. Thanks much Austin John ♥️♥️♥️
I have struggled missing this for hours. Finally got it. Thank you for being the best source for new content!
Specifically what I was looking for when my first wild Eevee ran off. Thanks for the info man!👍
You know the funny part?
I couldn't get a single eevee and when I gave up I got a space time distortion caught 6 eevees looked at the map and there was a mass outbreak of eevees
I hope they keep making this type of Pokémon game, love the new style.
Did this this morning, took me about an hour, maybe more to catch all the Eevee's I needed. Only had 1 double Eevee spawn and most of mine spawned during the day, in comparison to at night but well worth doing. Thanks Austin for the video.
My fav Eeveelution is Umbreon, so I've got all of them (both caught and evolved), all but Umbreon, which I evolved by giving him berries and putting him to win easy fights.
Half-game, I thought my Sylveon was strong so after the credits I took it out to train it and level it up even with the rest of my team and surprise, it was a scam hahahahahaha same happened with most of the other Eeveelutions, then my hope was on Umbreon but when the moment of truth came, it was even weaker than the others hahahaha so dissapointing, but hey, I already made it's pokédex entry and I'm doing all the rest of the Eeveelutions' and the normal initial Eevee, to finally put them in a box. 😅
Austin's reaction to giant Glacion sitting is the most wholesome thing and made my day.
Thanks Austin John, helpful as always :)
who's John?
His name is Austin…
I meant to write Austin John lol, sorry
@@jacobalexander1773 i meant to write austin john lol
AustinJohn I hope you see this. This video was an inspiration to me. As a child playing Original Pokémon I always dreamed of collecting all the Eeveeloutions. So seeing that this could be done without trading or cheating was so amazing. After several hours of in game farming and story I just got my final Eeveeloution “Glaceon”.
I just am beyond stoked with having all of them and taking pictures of them all together.
Thank you for all the amazing content you put out it never seizes to amaze me how dedicated a content creator you are. Thank you again for this video and all your videos! 💛
I must've come back to this vid like 5 times lol you make all this look so easy haha. Thank you again Austin John!
ALSO: My first ever Eevee catch was an alpha. It was in Obsidian Fields and I haven't seen an alpha Eevee since! The hunt is on!! Thank you , thank you.
Ps. I'm loving your merch. I'm grabbing something as soon as my beach-arse wallet will let me 😄 haha
You should go into Space-TIme Distortions whenever one appears because not only will you find rare items like evolution stones and other evolution items but also randomly encounter Pokémon - among them the Eeveelutions. I caught an Espion during one of them and battled other eeveelutions as well.
Yeah, I caught an Evee during the tutorial and I was so excited to get Espeon, and then it evolved into a Sylvion because I was silly and didn't get rid of Baby doll eyes, which is fine, but I was still sad.
I'm also pretty certain that you can get Thunderstones by breaking the sparkling black stones.
Edit: I also got lucky and there was an Evee mass outbreak really early, and all the Evee were male, I kid you not, I have a pasture half full of Evee and they're all Male.
Yeah I got a thunder stone from the black rocks used it to get a jolteon
yeah, unfortunately female eevee’s are rare ]’:
the struggle is so real for the female eevee hunt.
Also FYI Austin was able to get a lvl 13 umbreon by using it to break crystals for crafting pokeballs. Hope it helps.
Thank you so much for this video! I am so going to want to have a team of all Eeveelutions! The fact that they can be both regular and alpha means double the fun with the Eeveelutions.
just wish that I'm lucky enough to catch female Eevee, I want my Sylveon, Glaceon, and Leafeon to be girls
OMG I am so glad I do not have the game yet and saw this. I have always dreamed of having a team of Eevees that I raise to be each different evolution. The fact that I can do this makes me insanely happy and I cannot wait to get it! Thank you so much! My favorites are Vaporeon, Leafeon, and Glaceon. We'll see if I have the patience to get that ice stone early lol.
This is why I LOVE this guy!!!! Spits out soooo much information !!!! 💕
Man 2022 has gotten off too a good start so far.. there is soooo much to play that it’s hard to dedicate time to each and every amazing title so far + games I myself love so much..
Funny thing to me is that back at the Pokémon Legends Arceus Announcement / Reveal, I saw the game and was blown away by what it was and the Hype for me automatically shot to 100+ and I was sooo excited but at the same time I was sooo bummed out cus I thought to myself “Man if the game looks like this then it has to at the very least be like 5 or so years out!! It looks like they barley started production on the game.. the damn grass and environment looks soo flat.! But man once it comes out it is going to be one hell of a fun Pokémon game I cannot wait to play” and then immediately thought “I honestly hate it when they announce games that are so far out only to then go into complete darkness for like a year and a half and only leave breadcrumbs here and there to the point to where everyone forgets about the game until we see another trailer and be like Oh Yeah that game is in the works huh.. only to not see it again for a few more years..” (Looking at YOU BOTW2!! Like how the hell do they go from “BOTW2 originally started off as another DLC project for BOTW but we kept adding new things / features and kept coming up with all these ideas that we thought why not just turn it into a sequel? This one is made of all assets from BOTW as the foundation and everything is there so it would not take too long at all to complete it” and yet here we are with still NO RELEASE DATE!!) Anyways.. those thoughts were replaced with confusion when I saw the “Coming Early 2022” I thought to myself “WHAT THE HELL?!?” “Oh this game is definitely getting delayed.. sadly”
But I preordered the second it was available and between this and Dying Light 2 & Horizon 2 on PS5 + Uncharted Thieves Collection … PLUS I FREAKIN LOVE Playing Madden 22 so it’s been hard setting aside time for all these amazing titles.. what a way to start the year!
And Legends Arceus really is like Pokemon’s BOTW.. it may not be the best looking game on Switch or a decent looking game at that Imo But it is fun / fresh as hell and extremely addicting to play.. I only hope they build on this formula and it basically becomes what Origins did to the Assassins Creed Series where it completely Changed the identity of the the series.. but I hope LA does it for the better..
And if we ever were to either get a follow up to Legends Arceus or for the new titles to follow suit I hope that Nintendo gives them WAY More time to develop this game so that the graphics can be mind blowing and there can be so many more great ideas and maybe ALL POKÉMON in 1 game and idk maybe hopefully finally have a damn Pokémon game LAUNCH WITH SUPPORT FOR HOME!!! I got a Totodile I been wanting to use for the longest time but he just sits there as nothing is compatible with him yet..
Only way to go is up for Legends..
It would be cool if gamefreak did a new eeveelution in this game.
I'm fairly new to Austins channel... I love that we both seem to talk to our Pokemon in the same way
you're such a legend, I love you content. Simple, direct and smooth. I got my togekiss on my 2nd try and 1st ball, thanks to you! I cannot believe the time you've been spending doing these videos, since you've completed everything in the first part. I am doing the same, being patient until my next region. Keep it up|
it was really cute how excited you got at them "sitting" on command.
and i felt the same
thanks for so many details.
i have a few eevees by now, but i for example didn't know that you could evolve some with the help of those rocks.
There are also other stones you can get from the tumblestones, the blue ones can also drop dawn stones, the black one drops dusk stones and moon stones, and the red one can also drop a shiny stone
This, without a doubt, has to be the absolute BEST Pokémon game that I've ever had the pleasure to play. I've not even defeated Kleavor yet (because I'm a little scared lol, not sure what level he is, so grinding up my level to mid 30s) also no ride Pokémon yet either. However, I do not feel that my gameplay has been hindered in anyway because I've not progressed, (in previous games you couldn't get past a NPC because you hadn't defeated a gym leader, etc) the Obsidean fieldlands are so vast, it feels boundless. I truly hope the Pokémon company/Nintendo/GameFreak make future games in this similar fashion. It was a real hit or miss for them to make something so different to previous generations. For me, this is a massive hit. I'm not bored within a few hours of gameplay like with every other Pokémon game. I love this game
:) Thanks for all your work! So helpful!
After I evolved my eevees I went straight for the alpha blissy and caught it. I was able to level them each up pretty high in the first two areas and got the stones I needed in a few time distortions.
Thank you, John, for helping make my Eevee team dream come true.
I had the Same Fun time with the first Time- Distortion, Caught a few Fun pokemon too
And I did get an Ice-stone from the Distortion I believe
this guide was helpful and also the reason why both glaceons where talking to each other is because you throw the pokeball at it and started to talk to each other lol its so cute!
Someone else has probably mentioned but I think catching definitely effects it. The eevee I found was ready to evolve at level 11.
I tried this method after progressing a bit in the game, and I found an alpha eevee there after only a few tries! Thanks for the great tips
I actually found a thunder stone in one of the black tumblestones. So it is possible to get Jolteon without the merit system.
Thanks for the videos and keep up the good work!
Bump for truth
if you are looking for high level Eeve's I recommend looking in distortion fields I always at least see 3 spawn at around lvl 45 through out the duration of the time distortion.
The glaceon's having their conversion and sitting with you is ADORABLE XD
Austin: "Guys, could you just... stop...?"
Me: *geeking out over how adorable the Glaceons are being* ^_^
I dont think I realized I needed this video until I saw this video. I NEED all of them. Thank you dude.
they should bring the "beans" system back from sun and moon. and the care system where you can brush and wash your mons
I haven’t touched a Pokémon game since Diamond for the DS, so I decided to use my voucher for this game. I was able to follow your instructions and I was able to get all of the eevee evolutions within about a span of four hours! This game has exceeded my expectations for what a Pokémon game could be.
My fave Eeveelution is Espeon I’ve always loved the psychic Pokémon. Also I adore how the Eeveelutions talk to each other when they are out together
1:37 "that's my big boy, Kleavor, and he's gonna be in an upcoming video, yes he is-"
Kleavor: *looks at the red mark next to her name*
You can get a Thunder Stone from the black rocks just like you can get Fire and Water stones from blue and red rocks
Thx soooo much in telling where to find evolutions stones without having to collect mp. I got my alpha eevee to evolve to vaporeon and I almost got all of the eevee evolutions in the beginning of the game. I’ve always wanted to have one of the eevee evolution on my team at the beginning. This is the first that I ever took my sweet time in enjoying a game like this! Thx so much
Probably the nest thing about this game is how much its been switched up gameplay wise. Like...when was the last time I had to look up stuff for Eevee? Like WAT? BUT its a good thing. I feel like its truly a new experience just with some mechanics and the pokemon that Ive always loved.
Yup, I had an espeon, umbreon, and a flareon for a while on my playthrough. It's nice that these are available early in the game as a decent option for many of the types. If given the choice, definitely go vaporeon, especially if you didn't take oshawatt. Then teach it water pulse, shadow ball, and ice beam. This will give you type coverage against the majority of the biggest pests in the game. Most of the aggressive pokemon that are everywhere (looking at you geodude, ghastly, and drifloon) are rock, ground, flying, or ghost typing. Then pick up a Graveler of your own early on to counter the shinx and poison types that are everywhere and you're pretty much good to go. Machoke is readily available and has a solid move pool as well with taught moves. The elemental punches are really powerful in this game.
Vaporeon is also great because it is a tank. Very few non-grass, non-electric pokemon have grass or electric moves. So as long as you don't throw Vaporeon out against Luxray, Vaporeon can absorb hits readily with it's extremely high health pool. Combined with it's great move list with great coverage options, Vaporeon is probably the most powerful generalist available in right from the first zone. You can get a water stone with 1000 merit points, which can be obtained by picking up lost satchels.
One pro tip for Arceus, that I wish I had known earlier, is that you can release your captured pokemon at the pastures and the game rewards you with the "grit" items of various quality. You can get all types including the rocks. Doing this gave me way more grit items than I needed to take all my pokemon to EV level 10 in all stats. Once you have more than you need, they actually sell for a considerable amount. The seeds of mastery likewise sell for a lot and eventually you'll have a surplus of them.
This would be my dream as a kid, never knew they continued these games. Amazing, kids are having a good time. Remember playing on the color ?
