Up to **five** legends can be spawned during each cycle, with the amount depending on how many players are online.

Command	Description
`/legend`	Displays all obtainable legends and various catch stats
`/legend check`	Displays the legends which are able to spawn at your current location, and your current legend spawn chance based on how many eligible players are currently online
`/rarespawns`	Displays all recent legendary spawns

* An additional legend is spawned for every 10 online players (up to 5 spawns). At least one legend is guaranteed to spawn. * In the minutes leading up to the cycle, a countdown timer is periodically broadcasted in chat. * If a spawned legend remains uncaptured for **5 minutes**, it's position will periodically be broadcasted in chat, and displayed in `/rarespawns`. * Legends are guaranteed to not despawn for **15 minutes**, even if the server reboots. * Certain legends can only be spawned while in the [Safari](/features/pokemon/safari.md#legend-spawns) or a [Fishing Area](/features/fishing/catches/pokemon.md#legends). ## Spawn Eligibility In order to be eligible for a legend spawn during a spawn cycle, the following conditions must be met: * Located within a valid [biome](/pokemon-spawns/biomes.md) * Not AFK * [Trusted](/info/server-guides/claiming-guide.md#permission-groups) (if within a claim player claim) ## Legend Locks Legends are 'locked' to all players that were nearby at the time of the spawn for **5 minutes**. If a legend spawn occurs in a **player claim**, only players that are **trusted** in the claim are added to the lock.

## Legend Expeditions Certain legends can only be obtained through **Expeditions.** To begin an Expedition, collect **4 Fragments** and craft the corresponding **Expedition Item**. Once crafted, **right-click** while holding the Expedition Item to teleport to the **Expedition Area**, where you’ll have an opportunity to catch that Legendary Pokémon.
