What are Adventure Effects in Pokemon Go?

In Pokemon Go, Adventure Effects are powerful abilities that certain Pokemon can activate outside battle, and provide certain effects for their trainers and their Party members. A sort of buff effect that will remain active for a certain period.

Each Adventure Effect is linked to a certain Charged Move and requires Stardust and Pokemon Candy to be activated. The effects of these special abilities will be similar to the bonuses provided by Mega Evolutions and will appear on the screen with a similar counter.

It is also confirmed that these bonuses can be activated more than once, and stack, providing even more time to enjoy their boosts.

How to use Adventure Effects in Pokemon Go

To activate Adventure Effects, Pokemon Go trainers need to select the Pokemon with the appropriate ability, and then scroll down to the USE tab when outside combat.

Adventure Effects will be available to use in the Pokemon’s menu.

Then, a new window with a timer and the Stardust and Candy requirements will appear. Pressing the (+) button will add more Stardust and Candy, increasing the timer of the Adventure Effects.

Each activation costs 5000 Stardust and 6 Candy, and grants 6 minutes of Adventure Effect buff, up to a maximum of 2 Hours for each activation, and a total 24 hours buff time at max (12 activations in total).

How many Adventure Effects are available in Pokemon Go?

Palkia’s move is called Spacial Rend and the Adventure Effect caused by Spacial Rend distorts space for 10 minutes, increasing the range at which trainers encounter Pokemon.

Dialga’s move is called Roar of Time and the Adventure Effect caused by Roar of Time will distort time for 6 minutes, pausing the timer of the following items: Incense, Daily Adventure Incense, Lucky Eggs, and Star Pieces.
