An Elegant Tail is a request in Pokemon Legends: Arceus that players can take on after accepting the A New Life story mission. This request is initiated by speaking with Asabei at the southwest corner of Jubilife Village, and it centers around finding the Pokemon with the elegant tail that curls like a spring. For those players that are uncertain about where to look for this particular Pokemon, full details on how to complete Pokemon Legends: Arceus's An Elegant Tail request can be found in this guide.
Pokemon Legends: Arceus - Where to Find the Pokemon with the Elegant Tail that Curls Like a Spring
The Pokemon that is being referenced by this side quest objective is none other than Glameow, a Normal-type Pokemon from Gen 4. To catch a Glameow, players should simply head to the Beachside Camp in the Cobalt Coastlands and start walking to the east. After taking just a handful of steps in that direction, fans should run into a Glameow, and they should use their preferred method to capture it.
With a Glameow in hand, players should return to Asabei in Pokemon Legends: Arceus's Jubilife Village and show the Pokemon to him. This action will trigger a short cutscene in which it is confirmed that the correct Pokemon has been captured, and Request 41 will be marked as complete at the end of that cinematic. The request rewards will also be issued at that point, and fans can look forward to receiving two different items.
Pokemon Legends: Arceus - An Elegant Tail Rewards
The rewards for completing An Elegant Tail are two Aux Evasion and two Grit Gravel. Pokemon Legends: Arceus fans can use the first of those two items to temporarily increase a Pokemon's ability to evade attacks in battle, while the second will raise the effort level for one of a Pokemon's stats. There are some limitations attached to Grit Gravel, though, as a stat's effort level can only be raised if it is at least three but no greater than five.
To note, neither of these rewards are particularly difficult to obtain. Indeed, fans can craft their own Aux Evasions and get Grit Gravel by releasing Pokemon in Pokemon Legends: Arceus. As such, players will not miss out on a great deal if they ultimately decide to skip An Elegant Tail. However, fans should have no trouble knocking this quest out in minutes armed with the information that is contained within this guide.
Pokemon Legends: Arceus is available now for the Nintendo Switch.
