Since the second generation, friendship has been a recurring factor in Pokémon video games, including Pokémon Legends Arceus. The affinity between the Trainer and their Pokémon is fundamental to increase the probability of success, critical attacks or to get away from the opponent's withering moves. In the case of the video game based in the region of Hisui, what we should be concerned about friendship is basically to be able to evolve certain species, such as Eevee or Buneary. In this section of our guide we tell you how to quickly raise the friendship of your Pokémon and how to check the status of your friendship.
How to raise a Pokémon's friendship in Pokémon Legends Arceus
Thanks to various player findings and testings, it has been identified that the best way to raise a Pokémon's friendship in Pokémon Legends Arceus is by hitting mineral stones (+1). It should be noted that the friendship of a Pokémon can range from 0 to 255. It will be considered high friendship (suitable to evolve) when it is 160 or higher. These are the methods to increase friendship in Hisui:
Use a Pokémon to break mineral rocks to obtain resources (+1).
Use a Pokémon to shake a tree (+1).
Level up your Pokémon.
Win a battle.
How to check the Pokémon's friendship level in Hisui
To know the friendship level of a Pokémon in Pokémon Legends Arceus there is only one method.To do this, we must go to Jubilife Village and approach the area of the sheepfolds (as soon as you enter Jubilife Village on the left). A character, Belamy, will be happy to tell us the degree of friendship of any Pokémon we want.

Talk to Bellamy and select the Pokémon you want. Depending on what he tells you, the friendship will be higher or lower.
When he tells you it's good "but it can still be better" it's between 100 and 149.
When he tells you that "you must be great partners" it is between 150 and 199.
When he tells you the relationship is "excellent" it's between 200 and 254.
When he tells you it's at its maximum, it's at 255.

Some Pokémon will only evolve when their Friendship level is high enough. The only way to determine your Pokémon's Friendship level is by speaking to Belamy in Jubilife Village, but you will have to complete a Request for him first.
Raise your Eevee's friendship level above 220 for Pokémon games between Generation II-VII, or above 160 for games Generation VIII onward. Get an Espeon by leveling up your Eevee during the daytime after it has high friendship.
Once Eevee's friendship is high enough, players will be able to evolve Eevee into Umbreon, but only at night. If Eevee is selected to evolve during the day with its friendship high, it will evolve into Espeon.
Players can get Ribombee by catching one or evolving Cutiefly, with the latter method being slightly easier. Cutiefly evolves starting at level 25. Players can keep one on their team while battling to use EXP. Share, but using Rare Candy or Exp Candy is a less hands-on method.
With soothe bell it takes about 30 berries, with soothe bell and roto friendship it takes like 16-20. I always have these berries growing in poke pelago. You can obtain them from route 10. Or you could just give it a Soothe Bell + Roto Friendship and power level it with Chansey/Blissey SOS chains.
After you have used Stantler's Psyshield Bash in Agile Style 20 times, you will be able to evolve it into Wyrdeer, the Normal- and Psychic-type Pokemon!
In Legends: Arceus, every Pokemon with a friendship evolution needs 160 friendship to evolve. Trainers can check their friendship level by talking to Bellamy, an NPC in Jubilife Village.
One way to increase a Pokemon's Friendship level quickly is to give them level-up items such as Exp. Candy and Rare Candy. Each time a Pokemon levels up, its Friendship level will also increase, so this can be the easiest method for players who received a windfall of Exp. Candy from a Max Raid Battle.
They also often jump out of shaking tumblestone. Black Augurite can also be found by digging for treasure while riding Ursaluna — we think most commonly near cliffsides, but these spawn locations seem to be random and vary.
