What legendary surprises might the unexplored GO Wild Area contain?

Adventure Effects are also reported to occur when these moves are used outside of battle!

Adventure Effects

Adventure Effects are temporary bonuses to help you on your Pokémon GO adventure, activated by powerful Pokémon attacks that may be used outside of battle. Adventure Effects have been reported to occur when Origin Forme Dialga uses Roar of Time, and when Origin Forme Palkia uses Spacial Rend.

Trainers who encounter and defeat Origin Forme Palkia in a Raid Battle have a chance to catch one that knows the Charged Attack Spacial Rend.*

*At this time, Origin Forme Palkia will be unable to learn Spacial Rend via any TM.

Trainers, Max Out this Season’s adventures in Pokémon GO with Party Share, a new update to Party Play! This update will allow you to share Incense, Lucky Eggs, and Star Pieces with members of your party.

Introducing item sharing with Party Share!

Trainers,
Max Out this Season’s adventures by using Party Share: a new feature of Party Play that enables Trainers to share Incense, Lucky Eggs, and Star Pieces with members of their party. Sharing an item divides the duration of that item’s effects in half. For example, an Incense with a 60 minute duration would be divided into 30 minutes for each player, regardless of how many Trainers are in the party.


Trainers can use Party Share to share their items up to four times per day for each type of item. There is no daily limit to how many times a Trainer can benefit from items shared with them by other party members.

The effects from items shared with Party Share can’t be combined with other Trainer Boost effects such as those from Daily Adventure Incense, the Coin Bag, or the Mystery Box. But if an item’s duration is extended by an event bonus, like increased Incense duration during Community Days, that bonus does apply to Party Share!

Note: Party Share feature availability is subject to Trainer location and may not be available under some circumstances.
