Niantic/The Pokemon CompanyPokemon Go Tour Sinnoh Global & Live event schedule
The Pokemon Go Tour Sinnoh Global event will take place between February 24 and February 25, 2024 from 10 AM to 6 PM (local time).
Players will have two full days to participate in this worldwide event to commemorate the Sinnoh Tour, and participate in various activities and Raids.
Pokemon Go Tour Sinnoh Live location
The Pokemon Go Tour Sinnoh Live location for 2024 was the city of Los Angeles, California, USA. More specifically, the Rose Bowl Stadium and its Park in Pasadena will be the location for Niantic’s new event.
NianticCalifornian trainers will be glad to know that event tickets for the Pokemon Go Tour Sinnoh Live event are already available in the in-game store and through the Pokemon Go official event site.
Pokemon Go Tour Sinnoh Origin Forme Dialga & Palkia debuts
The main attractions in the Pokemon Go Tour Sinnoh event are the debuts of Origin Forme Dialga and Palkia. Both Legendaries will make their way into the mobile game through space-time anomalies that will let players challenge them in Raids and use the brand-new Adventure Effects.
This new game mechanic gives specific attacks a new effect in the Pokemon Go overworld. Players that get Origin Forme Dialga in Raids during the Go Tour Sinnoh event can get one that knows the attack Roar of Time. The Adventure Effect for Roar of Time temporarily pauses the timer on certain items like Incenses, Lucky Eggs, and Star Pieces.
On the other hand, those who catch Origin Forme Palkia in Raids can get it with the attack Spacial Rend. The Adventure Effect for Spacial Rend temporarily increases the distance at which you can encounter wild Pokemon.
Trainers need to spend Stardust and Candy to activate Adventure Effects in Pokemon Go, so keep that in mind. It’s worth noting that players can’t have two Adventure Effects active at the same time.
Pokemon Go Tour Sinnoh event bonuses
During the Pokemon Go Tour Sinnoh event, trainers will be able to enjoy the following bonuses:
- Half hatch distance for Eggs placed on incubators during the event.
- Up to 6 special trades per day.
- Half Stardust cost for trades.
