Pokémon Legends: Arceus – How To Find & Farm Stardust Fast

Stardust is a valuable material in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. While exploring the Hisui region, trainers will discover lots of different items and crafting materials. By heading back to the camp players can use this to craft more Poké Balls and other helpful items for capturing more Pokémon. Stardust has been a staple in the Pokémon series since it made its debut back in Pokémon Gold and Silver. It’s a blue bag full of pink sand that is known to be valuable to collectors.

In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, trainers can sell Stardust for 1,000 Poké dollars at the general shop in the Jubilife Village. This can be incredibly helpful during the early game since it’s difficult to come by cash at this point in the story. Not only that, but Stardust in Arceus can be used as a crafting item for Star Pieces. Star Pieces can be sold for even more cash, but they will only be available later in the game. Regardless, Stardust is a great way to make money in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.

There are a few different ways to get Stardust in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and the first is by harvesting them from large pink crystals. When exploring one of the many open areas in the Hisui region, trainers can use their Pokémon to break rocks. These rocks contain a wide variety of different crafting materials depending on the color. Send out a Pokémon to break the pink crystals to collect more Stardust.

Farming Stardust in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

It’s recommended to wait until unlocking access to Wyrdeer before farming for Arceus materials like Stardust. Wyrdeer is one of the new Pokémon introduced in Legends: Arceus, and is a mount-Pokémon players can ride to get around the map faster. It also allows trainers to jump and boost for higher speeds. It’s unlocked after the player reaches the First Star rating in the Galaxy Corps. After defeating the Alpha Kricketune, the player will earn Wyrdeer’s respect and the Celestial Flute. Playing it will instantly summon Wydeer – but it’s important to mention that players cannot send out Pokémon while riding Wyrderr; they’ll need to dismount and then throw the Pokémon for it to work. Still, this is a great way to farm Stardust and other materials in Pokémon Legends: Arceus quickly.

For late game farming in Arceus, trainers can also use Space-Time Distortions to get the materials to create Star Pieces. These can be sold for 5,000 Poké Dollars at the shop and require 3 Red Shards, 3 Blue Shards, 3 Green Shards, and 1 bag of Stardust. The recipe to craft this can be purchased from the Recipe Vendor for 10,000 Poké Dollars. Invest this money back in Poké Balls to catch em’ all. This is a great method to get lots of cash in a short amount of time.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus is available now on Nintendo Switch.
