# Legendary Pokémon

A **Legendary Spawn Cycle** occurs randomly every few hours. Up to **five** legends can be spawned during each cycle, with the amount depending on how many players are online.

* 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, you need the corresponding **Expedition Item**. Most Expedition Items are crafted from **4 Fragments**, though some are only awarded whole. **Right-click** while holding the Expedition Item to teleport to the **Expedition Area**, where you will have an opportunity to catch that Legendary Pokémon.

Every Expedition runs the same way. Only the player who begins one is teleported in, the Pokémon waiting there is level **70** and locked to them, and a bossbar tracks it and points the way. Expedition Pokémon are also far more likely to be shiny than an ordinary legend spawn, at **5%** against the **0.4%** of a Legendary Spawn Cycle.

<details>

<summary>Kubfu Expedition</summary>

A complete **Isle of Armor Ticket** ticket is awarded for defeating [Master Mustard](/features/battling/battle-tower.md#master-mustard) in the Battle Tower, and again for the first defeat of the [Elite Four](/features/battling/player-gyms/elite-four.md) Champion in a season. **Isle of Armor Ticket Fragments** may also be found in the [Daily Rewards](/features/player/daily-rewards.md#rewards) pool.

Kubfu holds either a **Scroll of Darkness** or a **Scroll of Waters**, decided at random when the Expedition begins. The scroll cannot be chosen, and because Kubfu holds it rather than handing it over, it is only received once the Kubfu has been caught.

That scroll decides which Urshifu it becomes. Send the Kubfu out and **right-click** it while holding the scroll to evolve it, which consumes the scroll.

<details>

<summary>Marshadow Expedition</summary>

The **Lost Shadow** is assembled from **4 Lost Shadow Fragments**, though it may also be found whole. Both the fragments and the complete item appear in [Fishing Treasure](/features/fishing/catches/treasure.md#rewards). Untradable Fragments are also found in the [Daily Rewards](/features/player/daily-rewards.md#rewards) pool.

<details>

<summary>Mew Expedition</summary>

The **Old Sea Map** is assembled from **4 Old Sea Map Fragments**, though it may also be found whole. Both the fragments and the complete item appear in [Fishing Treasure](/features/fishing/catches/treasure.md#rewards). Untradable Fragments are also found in the [Daily Rewards](/features/player/daily-rewards.md#rewards) pool.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Victini Expedition</summary>

The **Liberty Pass** is awarded to the player who finishes a [Ranked](/features/battling/ranked.md#seasons-and-rewards) season at **#1** on a ladder, alongside **2 Shiny Keys**. Each ladder has its own champion, so the Singles and Doubles ladders each award one Liberty Pass per season.

The Liberty Pass is soulbound and has no Fragments. It cannot be obtained any other way.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://wiki.apexcobblemon.com/pokemon-spawns/legendary-pokemon.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
