A space-time distortion (Japanese: 時空の歪み Space-time distortion) is a feature introduced in Generation VIII that allows the player to catch rare Pokémon that are otherwise unobtainable. Space-time distortions only appear in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.
In the games
The space-time distortions were caused by Giratina, who wanted to draw Arceus out of hiding so it could get revenge for being sealed in the Distortion World, which it did with the help of Volo. The rifts are capable of sending both Pokémon and humans through time, as happened to Ingo.
Akari or Rei first mentions the space-time distortions while the player is preparing to venture into the Crimson Mirelands for the first time. The player is required to venture into the distortions in order to complete the Hisui Pokédex, as tasked by Arceus.
Mechanics
Once the player has beaten the first Noble Pokémon, Kleavor, space-time distortions will start to appear and spawn after waiting in an area for a certain amount of time without resting at a base camp. Battling a wild Pokémon or going to the menu will pause the timer for space-time distortions to spawn. These distortions are more likely to spawn when the player reaches the end of the game's main story until defeating Dialga and Palkia. Space-time distortions will not spawn if the weather is intense sun, snowstorm, or thunderstorm.
When a space-time distortion first manifests, all wild Pokémon within the area of effect (except Unown) are despawned, and several items that normally cannot be found in the overworld will appear, including shards, evolution items, and valuable items. Within the bounds of a distortion, wild Pokémon will only spawn at a close range to the player, and may spontaneously despawn as new Pokémon are spawned in their place. There will be 3 rare Pokémon spawns, which differ depending on the area.
The percentages of distortions spawning based on time are as follows:
Distortion chance (normally) | Distortion chance (end-game) | |
---|---|---|
5 minutes | 10% | 30% |
10 minutes | 30% | 40% |
15 minutes | 50% | 70% |
25 minutes | 75% | 100% |
40 minutes | 100% | 100% |
