So You Want to Befriend a Feathered Fury? A Guide to Getting Braviary in Pok�mon Legends: Arceus
Ah, Braviary. The noble bird Pok�mon with a wingspan that could block out the sun... and a temper to match. But fear not, aspiring trainer! This guide will turn you from a nervous newbie to a Braviary whisperer in no time (or at least get you one without getting dive-bombed).
First things first: The Not-So-Brave Little Rufflet
Braviary doesn't just appear out of thin air, like a magic trick with angry feathers (although that would be pretty cool). You'll need to snag its pre-evolution, the adorable Rufflet. These little guys can be found chilling around Lake Acuity in the Alabaster Icelands. Just be prepared for a bit of a trek – you won't be able to visit this frigid paradise until you've beaten the fourth Noble Pok�mon.
Here's the catch (pun intended): These Rufflets are a bit on the shy side. Be gentle when throwing your Pok� Balls, and maybe bring some berries as a peace offering (trust me, they love a good Oran berry).
QuickTip: Reading twice makes retention stronger.![]()
Pro-tip: If you're feeling impatient, you can also try using some Smoke Balls to create a sneaky smokescreen. Just don't accidentally blind yourself in the process – Rufflets might be small, but their beaks are no joke.

Rufflet to Riches: Evolving Your Buddy
Reminder: Focus on key sentences in each paragraph.![]()
Once you've got your Rufflet, it's time to turn it into the magnificent Braviary! But here's the thing: Rufflet is like that friend who takes forever to get ready to go out. This little dude won't evolve until it reaches level 54. That's a lot of grinding, my friend.
Here's your survival guide for the grind:
- Battle Everything: Every wild Pok�mon you thump is XP in the bag (or should we say, Pok� Ball?).
- Get Crafty with Exp. Candy: Found these sweet, level-boosting treats lying around? Shove them down Rufflet's gullet! (Just kidding, use them strategically).
- Embrace the Side Hustle: Complete those research tasks – they reward you with XP and other goodies to help you on your journey.

Tip: Reread sections you didn’t fully grasp.![]()
Alright, alright, so maybe you're not the patient type. Who wants to wait for evolution when you can catch a Braviary ready-made? Well, fret no more, because there's a wild Braviary just waiting to be your BFF... kind of.
Head to Snowpoint Temple (east of Lake Acuity) and prepare for a climb that would make Everest look like a walk in the park. Once you reach the top, you'll see a majestic Braviary soaring through the skies. Here's the tricky part: you'll need to use Jet Balls to catch this aerial ace. These nifty Pok� Balls are designed for long-distance throws, perfect for sky-high Pok�mon. But you'll need a high enough rank with the Survey Corps to unlock them.
Important Note: This Braviary is a Hisuian Braviary, a regional variant with a bit of a psychic punch. Pretty cool, right? Just be prepared for a fight – this Braviary isn't known for its hospitality. Stock up on Potions and Revives, because this feathered friend might put up a fight before becoming your loyal companion.
Tip: Read the whole thing before forming an opinion.![]()
Congratulations, Trainer! You've Got Yourself a Braviary!
Now that you've got your Braviary, the sky's the limit (literally, you can fly now!). Soar through the Alabaster Icelands, strike fear into the hearts of your enemies, and maybe even use Braviary to help you find a decent hat made out of those magnificent feathers (don't worry, we won't judge). Just remember, with great power comes great responsibility... and a whole lot of molting. But hey, that's the price you pay for friendship, right?
