Pokémon Legends: Arceus - A Pantimos in the Back Alley


In the quest guide for Pokémon Legends: Arceus you will learn:

  • How to unlock side mission 21
  • What the quest requirements are
  • How to catch the escaped Pantimos

In Pokémon Legends: Arceus you can expect a lot of side missions besides the main story. Many side quests are only unlocked when you have the necessary requirements. In this guide you will learn how to solve the side mission 21 "A Pantimos in the back alley" and how to unlock the mission.

Unlock side mission 21 - How to do it

The following side missions must be completed:

Once you have completed the above side missions, you will still need a Pokédex entry from Pantimos. You don't have to complete the Pokédex entry, it is sufficient to have caught or fought Pantimos once. Alternatively, you can also catch the pre-evolution Pantimimi and then evolve it.

Pantimos and Pantimimi can be found south of the Sandgemmenheide.

Pantimos and Pantimimi can both be found in the Obisidan Grasslands. It is best to start at the base of the mound and head to the Sandgemmen Heath to the southwest. Continue south until you reach the river. Here you should find Pantimimi as well as Pantimos. Pantimos is much less common than Pantimimi. If you don't find the Pokémon right away, we recommend that you reload the area.

Capture the escaped Pantimos

1. Encounter

The first quest marker will lead you to a small back alley that runs between two rows of houses. As you run towards the Pantimos, you will notice that an invisible wall is blocking your path. The solution is simple: run around the block and enter the alley from the other side. Interact with the Pantimos to continue with the mission.

2. Encounter

The second time you meet Pantimos is next to the Galactics Headquarters. Go around the headquarters from the left side and run close to the wall of the building. Halfway there, you'll have to switch sides and run along the rock wall until you reach Pantimos.

Run left along the rock wall to get to the Pantimos.

3. Encounter

The last time you encounter Pantimos is near the eastern city gate. This time you will have to zigzag towards the Pokémon. First, run towards the left post of the gate. Then run a few meters to the right and then diagonally towards Pantimos. Interact with the Pokémon again to complete the quest. As a reward, you will receive two defensive vitamins.
