Where to Find Lucario & Riolu in Pokemon Legends: Arceus
If you’re looking to add Lucario or Riolu to your team, here’s where to catch them in Pokemon Legends: Arceus.
- First, advance the Pokemon Legends story far enough that you unlock Alabaster Icelands.
- Travel to the region, and make your way to Icebound Falls, West from Snowfields Camp.
- Head through the cave and you’ll be in an area where Riolu and Lucario often spawn.
- Since the Pokemon is very docile, you won’t really need any tips on how to catch it – simply throw a ball and you’re good to go!
- However, these Pokemon Legends catching tips will help you secure any wild Pokemon with ease!
If you catch a Riolu, the Pokemon will evolve with high friendship but you’ll still need to instruct it to do so. Here’s how to evolve Pokemon in Legends: Arceus!

Interestingly, we just got new evidence that suggests that Mega Evolution may be coming to Pokemon Legends: Arceus.
This is particularly exciting for Lucario fans, as the Pokemon only gets stronger and cooler with its Mega form.
And rumor has it, a new DLC for Arceus is dropping sooner than you’d think!
