Pokémon Legends: Arceus will allegedly feature neither Effort Values (EVs) nor Individual Values (IVs) — two “hidden stats” featured in every mainline Pokémon title that determine each Pokémon’s effectiveness in battle. But there is a proposed substitute.
The leaker claimed that each Pokémon would boast random base Effort Level values upon being caught, much like how Pokémon in mainline games have randomized IVs upon being captured. Effort Levels appear to operate similarly to both EVs and IVs in that each of a Pokémon’s six stats is assigned an Effort Level that, when increased, grants a boost to its respective stat.
However, the alleged new stat seems to differ slightly from the IV system. In prior games, Pokémon’s IVs were typically static; they could only be increased through Hyper Training. In Legends: Arceus, it appears you can modify Effort Levels with specific types of items, based on Abyzab’s claim. Furthermore, the leaker claimed players would be able to max out all six of a particular Pokémon’s Effort Levels, which seemingly distinguishes it from the EV stat seen in prior games. Previous Pokémon games limited the total number of EVs a Pokémon could accumulate across its six stats to 510 EVs. As each stat has a maximum threshold of 252 EVs, one could only max out the EVs for two of its Pokémon’s six stats.
Pokémon Legends: Arceus is set to launch on January 28, but many are already playing the first open-world Pokémon title. Physical copies of the game allegedly leaked more than a week before the game’s release date. As such, many details surrounding the game have seemingly leaked as well, including
