PLA Uxie Best Moveset

130/130 balanced defenses at 95 Speed on Psychic. The moveset absorbs hits from both sides equally. 75 Sp. Atk generates minimal offensive pressure. Agile Style at 95 Speed can secure double turns, but the damage per turn is too low to justify the slots.

Moves List

Pokedex Entry

A Pokémon feared but also respected for stealing away the memories of evildoers. I have found records that suggest Uxie holds dominion over knowledge.

Pokemon Legends: Arceus

Uxie Legends: Arceus Guide

  • In Legends: Arceus, Uxie is a Legendary Pokemon rated C-Tier. At 580 BST, it hits hard. It excels as a pivot. Light Screen with Lightclay is the standard set.

  • Uxie is a static encounter at Hisui Lake Acuity in Legends: Arceus. Uxie appears at level 70. Prerequisite: Mission: The Plate of the Lakes. Save before the encounter. These one-shot Pokemon don't respawn if you knock them out or run out of Poke Balls.

  • In Legends: Arceus, Uxie's biggest threats include Scyther (Bug), Misdreavus (Ghost), and Absol (Dark), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Uxie has enough bulk to absorb a hit, but don't push the matchup. Pivot to a teammate that resists.

  • In Legends: Arceus, Run Levitate on Uxie. It's the ability that defines how you build around it and the main reason it holds a competitive niche.

  • In Legends: Arceus, Uxie fills the pivot role. It's a special attacker with base 75 Sp. Atk. Base 95 Speed is workable. Faster than some, slower than many. And it's tanky enough to absorb a few hits.

Game Availability

Uxie has appeared in 13 games since Diamond & Pearl, spanning 7 generations. As a Legendary, it's typically a one-per-save encounter tied to the story or post-game content.
