Partway into the game, the NPC Asabei in Jubilife Village gives players the request “An Elegant Tail.” At first glance, the mission seems straightforward: Show him a Pokémon with a tail that is “elegant and swirly like a spring.” The only problem is Asabei didn’t get a good look at the creature. He doesn’t even remember where he saw it, just that it had a unique tail. At least the request “The Search of Bitter Leaves” tells players they can find its target Pokémon (a Petilil described as a plant with “three leaves”) in the Crimson Mirelands. So, it’s up to players to suss out where Asabei’s mystery Pokémon lives and what, exactly, it is. Thankfully, even though Asabei has no idea where to find the Pokémon, his description of its tail narrows the possibilities down considerably. Only two Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus have a springlike tail: Pikachu and Glameow. Conveniently, Pikachu’s tail is not swirly in the slightest, so by process of elimination, we know Asabei is looking for a Glameow. If you already have one, just show it to him and that’s that. Otherwise, you need to figure out where to find the Pokémon and then catch it. Depending on how much you have explored Hisui and filled out your Pokedex, you might know that Glameow congregate in the Glacier Terrace of Alabaster Icelands, as well as the Crossing Slope and Veilstone Cape of the Cobalt Coastlands. With that knowledge in hand, all you have to do is journey to any of those areas and catch a Glameow. Once you have the Glameow in hand, simply head back to Jubilife Village and show Asabei the Pokémon. Don’t worry; you will get it back once Asabei is done looking at it. Afterward, Asabie will reward your hard work with two Aux Evasions and two Grit Gravels, which temporarily increase a Pokémon’s evasion in battle and permanently increase the effort level of a stat, respectively.
