Everything You Need to Know About Adventure Effects in Pokémon Go

The Origin Formes of both Dialga and Palkia were added to Pokemon Go with a new mechanic called Adventure Effects. Here's exactly what they are and how they work in Niantic's mobile game.

Pokemon Go introduced the Origin Formes of Dialga and Palkia in February 2024, adding a new mechanic that allows players to obtain special bonuses in a new way. Since then, Niantic has announced the Sunsteel Strike and Moongeist Beam Adventure Effects for Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings Necrozma.

Here’s everything we know about Adventure Effects and how to use them in the game.

What are Adventure Effects in Pokemon Go?Adventure Effects are described by Niantic as “temporary bonuses” to aid Pokemon Go trainers, which involve Pokemon using powerful attacks outside of battle to bestow useful effects.

For now, Adventure Effects are exclusive to Origin Forme Diala, Origin Forme Palkia, Dusk Form Necrozma, and Dawn Wings Necrozma. However, the developers have teased that more will be added later on, saying, “Who knows what Adventure Effects may be discovered in the future…”

How to use Adventure Effects in Pokemon GoPlayers who have a Pokemon that is capable of triggering an Adventure Effect can activate it by going to the creature’s main page and scrolling down to the “Adventure Effects” section.

Adventure Effects cost Stardust and Candy to activate, with the amount increasing based on how long you’d like the Effect to last. You can extend the length after activating an Adventure Effect, with the max being 24 hours.

It’s worth noting that you can only activate one Adventure Effect at a time.

Every Adventure Effect in Pokemon GoSo far, there are only four Adventure Effects available in Pokemon Go, and are exclusive to Origin Forme Dialga, Origin Forme Palkia, Dusk Mane Necrozma, and Dawn Wings Necrozma, as they are based on their signature moves.

Note that while Smeargle caught via Go Snapshot can typically learn any attack, it will not be able to learn these particular moves.

Roar of TimeOrigin Forme Dialga’s signature move, Roar of Time, fittingly impacts timers in Pokemon Go. More specifically, it pauses the timer on Incense, Daily Adventure Incense, Lucky Eggs, and Star Pieces while active.

Roar of Time lasts for a baseline of six minutes and costs 5,000 Stardust and 5 Dialga Candies. You can spend additional Stardust and Dialga Candy to extend that time in six-minute increments up to a total of 2 hours. After that, you can tap “Use again” to add more time (again up to two hours), with the max being 24 hours total.

Spacial Rend Origin Forme Palkia has access to Spacial Rend. When active, this distorts space and allows you to encounter wild Pokemon from an increased distance.

Spacial Rend lasts for a baseline of 10 minutes and costs 5,000 Stardust and 5 Palkia Candies to activate. As with Roar of Time, you can spend more Stardust and Palkia Candy to extend the effect in 10-minute increments for up to two hours. After that, you can tap “Use again” to add more time (again up to two hours), with the max being 24 hours total.

Sunsteel StrikeBy fusing Solgaleo into Dusk Mane Necrozma, the Pokemon will learn the Charged Attack Sunsteel Strike. When Sunsteel Strike is active, creatures who appear during the daytime will spawn more frequently near your location.

Additionally, Pokemon who can only evolve during the daytime can evolve at any time with Sunsteel Strike active.

Sunsteel Strike lasts 10 minutes and costs 3,000 Stardust and 3 Necrozma Candy to activate. Like other Adventure Effects, you can extend Sunsteel Strike’s duration in 10-minute increments by using more Stardust and Necrozma Candy.

Sunsteel Strike cannot be active simultaneously as another Adventure Effect, an Incense, a Daily Adventure Incense, the Mystery Box, or the Coin Bag.

Moongeist Beam By fusing Lunala into Dawn Wings Necrozma, the Pokemon will learn the Charged Attack Moongeist Beam. When Moongeist Beam is active, creatures who appear during the nighttime will be attracted to your location.

Additionally, Pokemon who can only evolve during the nighttime can evolve at any time with Moongeist Beam active.

Moongeist Beam lasts 10 minutes and costs 3,000 Stardust and 3 Necrozma Candy to activate. You can also extend Moongeist Beam’s duration in 10-minute increments by using more Stardust and Necrozma Candy.

Moongeist Beam cannot be active simultaneously as another Adventure Effect, an Incense, a Daily Adventure Incense, the Mystery Box, or the Coin Bag.
