As players make their way throughPokemon Legends: Arceus, they’ll have various sidequests to keep them busy. The sidequests mechanic unlocks after the player character has received their Survey Corps uniform and embarked on Mission 4: Getting to Work on Research Tasks. Some sidequests will unlock another sidequest, so it’s important to do each one - especially to earn some rewards.
One of the Requests inPokemon Legends: Arceusfollows an NPC named Morel. He gives out a Request as early as the Obsidian Fieldlands before making a return at the Alabaster Icelands, which is the final area players unlock. Request 76: Mushroom Hunting with Swinub is the final Request that Morel will ask of players. Fortunately, it’s a simple task for those who’ve yet to complete it.

Unlock Requirements for Request 76
The easy-to-miss requirement for unlockingRequest 76is by neglectingRequest 33: What A Massive Mushroom!. Request 33 unlocks after catching a Parasect. Whether this means evolving a Paras orcatching a Parasect in the wilddoesn’t matter. Those that are looking to challenge the level 30 Alpha Parasect at Nature’s Pantry in theObsidian Fieldlandscan have this Request done fairly early inLegends: Arceus' story.

Once this is complete, go to Laventon’s Office and pick up Request 76 on the blackboard. Instead of speaking to Morel at his house, Morel will be at the Alabaster Icelands at the edge of Heart’s Crag. ensure to have a Swinub in the party before speaking to him.Players can track the Requeston the map by press (+), Y-button, and then selecting Request 76 with A-button. This will put a marker where Morel can be found.
How to Complete Request 76
In case players neglected to have a Swinub in their lineup, return to a base camp and swap out one of the Pokemon for Swinub. There are also plenty of Swinub crawling around Bonechill Wastes and Avalugg’s Legacy, as well asa level 62 Alpha Swinub. It doesn’t matter what type players end up catching so long as they just have one in the party.
By speaking to Morel, he’ll mark three different locations in Heart’s Crag for Swinub to sniff out.Two out of three of these spotswill dig up the mushrooms that Morel is looking for without a problem.Oneof the spots will have a Snover, which is a Grass/Ice-type. Thanks to Swinub’s Ground-typing, it has a weakness to Grass-type moves despite its Ice-typing having an advantage over Grass-types. Thus, playersmight not want to have Swinub at the front of their lineup.Bring a Fire-type Pokemon, or a Pokemon that knows a Fire-type move, such as Mystic Fire. As a Grass/Ice-type, Snover suffers 4x damage to Fire.
Snover’s not too much of a threat, but here’s what players should know when battling the one in Request 76:

* Resistances:
Electric, Grass, Ground, Water
- Avoid bringing Pokemon with the Typings listed in the “Strong against” and “Resistances” rows.
Once the mushroom hunting is over and done with, return to Morel to turn in Request 76. He’ll givex5 Sand Radishesandx1 Exp. Candy Las rewards. If players haven’t completedRequest 61: New Wares Yet Again, they can give the five radishes to Tao Hua at the Galaxy Hall. Otherwise, Sand Radishes are used for crafting the Twice-Spiced Radish, a recipe that’s unlocked by completing Request 80: The Perfect Pickle Recipe. An Exp. Candy L will give a ton of experience to a selected Pokemon.
