So, you're on the hunt for Froakie in Pokémon Legends: Arceus? I get it. I was super excited to see which of my favorite Pokémon would make an appearance in the Hisui region. There's nothing like exploring a new land with a trusty team of Pokémon by your side.

I have to be the bearer of some slightly disappointing news. You can't actually get Froakie in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. I know, I was bummed too when I first found out. I spent a good few hours searching around the Cobalt Coastlands, hoping to spot that familiar blue frog, but no luck. It turns out, Froakie and its evolutions, Frogadier and Greninja, are not programmed into the game.

But don't worry, it's not all bad news! If you're a fan of the Kalos region's water starter, you're in for a treat with the next game in the series.

Where to Find Froakie

The good news is that Froakie has been confirmed for the upcoming game, Pokémon Legends: Z-A! This new adventure is set in Lumiose City from the Kalos region, which is Froakie's home turf.

I remember when Pokémon X and Y first came out, I chose Froakie as my starter without a second thought. There was just something cool about its design, and I had a feeling it would have an awesome final evolution. I wasn't wrong! Greninja quickly became one of my all-time favorites.

In Pokémon Legends: Z-A, Froakie will be one of the starter Pokémon you can choose from at the beginning of your journey. This means you'll be able to have this popular Pokémon with you from the very start!

It's always a tough choice picking a starter, but I have a feeling a lot of people will be going with Froakie this time around.
