Pokemon Lazarus Important Game Tips

• Fishing: Fishing in Pokémon Lazarus resembles the minigame in Stardew Valley, with a moving bar and the chance to fish up Treasure. Each Rod type has increased bar size and a unique encounter pool.
  • Certain Pokémon have abilities that make fishing easier!
    • Piscivore (Vaporeon): drastically increases the speed of fishing
    • Sticky Hold & Suction Cups: slows the movements of the fished Pokémon
    • Illuminate: increases the odds of Treasure spawning
    • Sturdy, Solid Rock, and Rock Head: reduce “bounce” of bobber, helpful when rapidly moving bobber after getting Treasure
• Farming Held Items: certain valuable items, such as Shards, Heart Scales, and Leftovers, are held by wild Pokémon. All Meowth forms and Murkrow learn Thief around level 20, making resource farming easier. A Quest in Sofos City gives the Glimmering Charm, increasing the odds of wild Pokémon holding items, which can make held item farming even easier!
• Mega Evolution: Mega Evolution is unlocked by completing Niko’s quest around Sofos City (Gym 4). Niko will then host a Mega Stone Shop in Acrisia University, with a growing selection as you progress. Make sure to check back with Niko regularly as you continue to beat Gyms!
• University Students: In most areas with wild Pokémon, a University Student can be found researching the local ecosystem. Help them out by filling the Pokédex entries of nearby Pokémon, and they’ll give you some nice rewards! A list of all locations and rewards is found lower in the documentation.
