How to get a Fire Stone in Pokémon Legends: Arceus
There are a number of ways to find a Fire Stone in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, with the first being to purchase one from the Trading Post for 1,000 Merit Points.
You can also find Fire Stones by breaking the Red Tumblestone Crystals which are scattered all across the Hisui region. Since Tumblestones are essential to multiple Poké Ball recipes, we recommend using this method over spending your precious Merit Points. You're going to be breaking an awful lot of these crystals after all!
Finally, you might find one on the ground in a Space-time Distortion.
