Pokemon Legends: Arceus was released last month, and it has been stunning both young and old Pokemon players with the vast changes it made to the series formula while still staying true to many of the core mechanics. The game has its players explore the old region of Hisui, the realm that preceded the Sinnoh Region.

One of the core mechanics that Legends: Arceus preserved is the tent pole concept of catching and battling with Pokemon. There is a variety of Pokemon from across the eight generations on offer in this game — among them is the rugged Ground-Type. This type is known for its immunity to Electric-Type moves and its ability to put the hurt on Electric, Fire, Rock, Poison, and Steel-Type Pokemon.

8 Gliscor Mixes The Opposing Types Of Flying And Ground

Gliscor is a Generation IV and Sinnoh/Hisui-original Pokemon that evolves from the Generation II Pokemon, Gligar. Gliscor is known as the Fang Scorp Pokemon, and it unites the seemingly opposing types of Flying and Ground. This makes Gliscor a Ground-Type who is ironically immune to Ground-Type attacks and a Flying-Type immune to Electric-Type moves.

Gliscor evolves from Gligar through leveling up at night while holding a Razor Fang. It can be found in the Primeval Grotto of the Coronet Highlands. Gliscor was also a Pokemon used by Ash Ketchum in the Pokemon anime during his adventures through the Sinnoh Region. Its most useful moves include attacks like Swords Dance, Poison Jab, X-Scissor, and Earth Power.

7 Steelix Was One Of The Original Steel-Type Pokemon

Steelix is the Iron Snake Pokemon, and it was introduced in Generation II and the Johto Region along with the Steel-Type itself. It is a Ground and Steel-Type Pokemon that evolves from the Generation I Pokemon, Onix. Onix evolves into Steelix through being traded while holding a Metal Coat. Both Onix and Steelix were signature Pokemon used by the Gym Leader Brock in the Pokemon games and anime.

Steelix can be found in the Celestica Trail of the Coronet Highlands in Legends: Arceus, and some of its most potent moves include Iron Tail, High Horsepower, and Stealth Rock.

6 Mamoswine Is A Beastly Combination Of The Ice and Ground-Types

Mamoswine was another Generation IV original that evolves from a Generation II Pokemon. It’s a Ground and Ice-Type Pokemon that evolves from Piloswine and Swinub. Mamoswine evolves from Piloswine through leveling up after learning the move Ancient Power, and Piloswine evolves from Swinub at Level 33.

This creature is known as the Twin Tusk Pokemon. It can be found at Avalugg’s Legacy in the Alabaster Icelands. Regarding its abilities, its best moves include such options as Icicle Crash, Blizzard, and High Horsepower.

5 Rhyperior Is A Rock And Ground-Type That Can Learn Surf

Rhyperior is a Generation IV original that evolves from one of the original 151 Pokemon, Rhydon. It evolves from Rhydon when traded with the Protector item, and Rhydon evolves from Rhyhorn at Level 42. On the other hand, Rhyperior is known as the Drill Pokemon.

Despite being a Ground and Rock-Type Pokemon, making it especially weak to Water-Type moves, Rhyperior can learn the Water-Type move Surf in mainline Pokemon games (Surf isn’t a move option in Legends: Arceus).

Rhyperior has a relatively large move pool overall, even in Legends: Arceus. It’s able to learn such moves as Shadow Claw, Megahorn, Flamethrower, Ice Beam, Thunderbolt, Flash Cannon, Poison Jab, and others. Its most potent moves include things like High Horsepower, Stone Edge, and Giga Impact. This Pokemon can be found at the Sacred Plaza of the Coronet Highlands.

4 Hippowdon Is A Tank Of A Pokemon Who Summons A Sandstorm

Hippowdon is yet another Generation IV original. It is a pure Ground-Type Pokemon that is notable for its Sand Stream Ability, which summons a sandstorm when Hippowdon is sent out onto the battlefield. That said, Abilities aren’t actually present in Pokemon Legends: Arceus. Also, Hippowdon is known as the Heavyweight Pokemon, and it evolves from Hippopotas at Level 34.

Hippowdon has very strong defense stats, and it being solely Ground-Type keeps it from taking quadruple damage from Rock and Ground-Types such as Rhyperior and Golem. It can be found in the Crimson Mirelands and the Celestica Trail of the Coronet Highlands. Its best moves include High Horsepower and Double-Edge.

3 Ursaluna Is The New Hisuian Evolved Form Of Ursaring

Ursaluna is a new Pokemon introduced in Legends: Arceus. It is a Ground and Normal-Type Pokemon that evolves from Ursaring and Teddiursa, both of which originated in Generation II and the Johto Region. Ursaluna evolves from Ursaring when it is given the Peat Block on a night with a full moon, and Ursaring evolves from Teddiursa at Level 30. Ursaluna is known as the Peat Pokemon.

This Pokemon can only be obtained by evolving an Ursaring, which can be found in the Ursa’s Ring of the Crimson Mirelands and the Soronous Path of the Coronet Highlands. Regarding its abilities, Ursaluna’s best moves include things like Headlong Rush, High Horsepower, Double-Edge, and Play Rough.

2 Garchomp Is The Swift-Moving Land Shark Pokemon

Garchomp is a Dragon and Ground-Type Pokemon that originates from Generation IV and the Sinnoh/Hisui Region. It is known as the Mach Pokemon, and it evolves from Gabite at Level 48 — which evolves from Gible at Level 24.

On another topic, Garchomp is one of the signature Pokemon of the Sinnoh Champion, Cynthia. It received a Mega Evolution with Generation VI in Pokemon X and Y, and it is one of the Pokemon on offer in Pokken Tournament.

If you want to catch one, Garchomp can be found on the Avalanche Slopes of the Alabaster Icelands in Legends: Arceus. Some of the best moves in its repertoire are Outrage, Earth Power, Dragon Claw, and Double-Edge.

1 Torterra Is One Of The Best All-Time Starter Pokemon Designs

Torterra is a Grass and Ground-Type Pokemon, and it is the final form of one of the Generation IV starter Pokemon, Turtwig. Turtwig evolves into Grotle at Level 18, and Grotle evolves into Torterra at Level 32. While Turtwig is not a starter option in this game, it can still be caught at the Droning Meadows of the Crimson Mirelands. You can even catch Torterra itself in the Holm of Trials also in the Crimson Mirelands.

Torterra was also a Pokemon used by Ash Ketchum during his Sinnoh adventures in the Pokemon anime. It’s one of the coolest starter Pokemon designs of all time, resembling the dinosaur Ankylosaurus with a small grove growing on its shell. Torterra’s best moves include Wood Hammer, Headlong Rush, Double-Edge, and Leaf Blade.
