How to get Manaphy in Pokémon Legends: Arceus (The Legend of the Ocean request)

In this guide, we explain how to get Manaphy in Pokémon Legends: Arceus as part of the Legend of the Ocean request.

If you are playing Pokémon Legends: Arceus, it is very likely that you are trying to complete the Pokédex and, incidentally, all the Requests (side missions). And although in general solving them is not too complicated, there are some that can choke you.

Such is the case of The Legend of the Ocean, petition number 66, commissioned by Professor Lavender shortly after the events that take place on the Cobalt Coast. The requirements to complete it are pretty far-fetched (and we’re not given any hints), but it makes sense given that the prize is… A Legendary Pokémon!

So if you have already accepted the quest, let’s see how to complete the Legend of the Ocean in Arceus Pokemon Legends.

The first thing you should know, as a matter of curiosity, is that the clues to solve the request are found in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shinining Pearl, specifically in the Canal City library. In the remakes, a new book called The Legend of the Ocean was introduced that gives us the keys to overcome this request.

What you must do first is to get three Pokémon: Buizel, Mantyke, and Overqwil.

You can find Buizel in the wild in Prado Herradura (Obsidian Meadow), Vereda del Viento (Obsidian Meadow), Erosionado Bridge (Obsidian Meadow), Cerro Aipom (Cobalt Coast) and Albuferas Chapuzón (Cobalt Coast).

You can find Mantyke in the wild at Ginkgo Beach (Cobalt Coast) and Silente Bay (Cobalt Coast).

To catch Overqwil you have two options. The first is to evolve into Hisui’s Qwilfish; To achieve this, you must use the move Thousand Toxic Spikes with Strong Style 20 times. When you do, the option to evolve will be activated (no need to level up).

The second option to getting Overqwil in Pokémon Legends: Arceus is to wait to finish the game, as one of the missions near the end will lead you to face the Pokémon and you will have the opportunity to capture it.

If you already have them, then comes the next part of the request: with all three Pokémon on your party, head to the Cobalt Coast and rest at any of the camps by selecting the ‘Until Afternoon’ option.

Once this is done, and with the sky dyed orange at sunset, you must cross the two gigantic pillars found in Mano de Arena on the back of Basculegion. If you did it correctly, you should hear a scream…

Next, go to the Coastal Cave, and inside you will be welcomed by the Legendary Pokémon Manaphy (level 50), accompanied by four Phione.
