One of the hardest and least straightforward Pokémon to catch in Pokémon Legends: Arceus is the Grass-type Cherubi. To catch Cherubi, you will need to shake certain trees at specific locations. It is also worth noting that Cherubi's RNG is quite rare, which can make this catch a bit frustrating after a while.
Since this Cherry Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus is quite rare, you will need to head to specific locations on Hisui. Trainers who are struggling to catch Cherubi in their first few attempts may want to stick to one or two regions instead of visiting all possible spawn locations.

Where To Find Cherubi
Since Legends: Arceus has a massive open world, it's recommended Trainers limit their search for Cherubi within the Obsidian Fieldlands. You will be able to find Cherubi in two trees in this location, which increases your odds of finding one in less time. However, if you are not in the Obsidian Fieldlands, you can search for Cherubi in alternate locations that are closer to you:
Where to find Cherubi |
Specific Location on Map |
|---|---|
The Obsidian Fieldlands |
Shaking trees at the southernmost tip of the riverbank, at the bottom of the map. |
The Crimson Mirelands |
Shaking trees near the Solaceon Ruins and south of Gapejaw Bog. |
The Coronet Highlands |
Shaking trees in Bolderoll Ravine, the Primeval Grotto, and the Lonely Spring. |

Height Camps Is A Better Place To Catch Cherubi
For ease of access, Trainers are advised to unlock and use the Heights Camp instead of the Fieldlands Camp when trying to find Cherubi in Arceus, as the former is much closer to the target location. Additionally, using the Braviary Mount to fly across the map will significantly reduce the time to travel between the camp and riverbank.
To unlock Hisuian Braviary, Trainers will need to do the main story mission, "The Slumbering Lord of the Tundra," during which they will receive the Ride Pokémon after defeating Sabi. See how to complete that quest in the video from Gamerpillar here:

Either Cherubi or a different Pokémon will pop out. In the event of a different Pokémon spawning, head back to Jubilife Village to reset the area and essentially the RNG as well. Repeat the above process until you catch Cherubi and add the cute Pokémon to your Pokédex.
