This page offers a guide on how to accept and complete Request 3: What Did "Shinx" IconShinx’s Ears Look Like? in Pokémon Legends: ARCEUS.

Request 3: What Did Shinx’s Ears Look Like?

One of the first requests you can pick up is from Toshi, who is near the buildings between Galaxy Hall an the gate to Obsidian Fieldplains. Speak to him and he’ll ask to see a Shinx so he can see what their ears look like.

Where to Find a Shinx in ARCEUS

Since you’ve already completed The Galaxy Team’s Entry Trial, in which you were tasked with catching a "Bidoof" IconBidoof, "Starly" IconStarly and Shinx, you’ll already have a Shinx in your arsenal. If you’ve lost your Shinx by releasing it (deliberately or accidentally), don’t worry too much as you’ll be able to catch another at Aspiration Hill in Obsidian Fieldplains - just remember they’re aggressive and can’t be caught without engaging in battle first.

In your Galaxy Team trial, you were tasked with catching a Shinx.

So, as soon as you accept Toshi’s request, you’ll be able to talk to him again and show him your Shinx. You can either show him a Shinx kept in your team of Pokémon, or one kept in your pastures.

Request 3 Reward

After a brief cutscene in which Toshi examines Shinx, you’ll finish the request and earn x3 Potions.

Show him your Shinx

to earn x3 Potions - useful for keeping your Pokémon healthy!
