During the Pokémon Legends: Arceus mission, "The Slumbering Lords of the Tundra," Trainers will need to make their way through the Snowpoint Temple by solving three puzzles to reach the top floor. After getting through the initial section of the sanctuary, players will arrive at the first door blocking the path. The door will have three panels representing a pattern puzzle in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. To solve it, Trainers must investigate the statues placed within the area.
The first statue sits in a corner on the left at the beginning of the hallway from the stairway. Reading the following will display, "There are faint traces of a rock pattern on the statue's chest." Keeping this in mind, check the second statue to reveal that a "steel pattern" is the next clue. The third statue before the doorway will show traces of an ice pattern. Therefore, the first puzzle's solution is Rock, Steel, and Ice. Interact with the door and press the panels in the correct order to advance through the temple.
Enter the next room to encounter the second puzzle in the ancient temple ruins of Pokémon Legends: Arceus. The process is the same as the first, but there is one slight hint that players might overlook. Investigate the initial statue to discover traces of an "ice pattern." Down the hall, players will find "rock" to be next in the sequence. A "steel pattern" will be engraved on the third statue's chest. However, before moving onward, notice that the third statue is facing a small opening in the wall. Continue down the path, but instead of inspecting the next sculpture, investigate the figure down the hallway with a dead end. This fourth statue will reveal traces of a "rock pattern." The fifth pattern in front of the locked door will be "ice." As a result, the correct panel series for this second puzzle is Ice, Rock, Steel, Rock, and Ice.
How to Solve the Snowpoint Temple Puzzles in Arceus
To reveal the solution in Pokémon Legends Arceus for the final puzzle in the Snowpoint Temple, Trainers must once again inspect each of the statues' chests within the area. This time, the large figurines are placed in a complex manner about the chamber. Players shouldn't fret, for the first statue is located within the corner room on the right from the entrance. Like before, players need to follow the gaze of each sculpture, checking their inscribed patterns along the way. Once every statue has been investigated, players will discover the third puzzle's solution: Steel, Ice, Rock, Ice, Steel, and Rock.
Progress through the temple to meet Avalugg, the "Lord of the Tundra." Avalugg is the final Nobel Pokémon in Pokémon Legends: Arceus that Trainers must pacify.
