With Pokémon Go Tour: Sinnoh – Global underway, players worldwide now have access to content that debuted during the LA event last weekend. This includes Origin Forme Dialga and Origin Forme Palkia making their first appearance alongside new Adventure Effects you can utilize to change your gameplay. 

The global version of the event runs from 10am to 6pm local time for all players on Feb. 24 and 25. No ticket is needed to access any of the event’s content, though you will need to pick between Diamond and Pearl versions in the Go Tour 2024: Road to Sinnoh Special Research to set the path you will take during the event.

Pokémon Go Tour: Sinnoh Habitat Rotation schedule and guide

Unlike the LA event, Pokémon Go Tour: Sinnoh – Global does have a set Habitat Rotation schedule that will run on both days. 

Habitat Rotations are the set times when specific Pokémon will spawn more frequently. They rotate at the start of each hour throughout the daily event hours and tend to feature drastically different species. Go Tour: Sinnoh has four different habitats and is also adding a new feature to the mechanic called Space-Time Anomalies.

Just like a similar feature in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, a Space-Time Anamoly will alter the Pokémon appearing in a habitat, giving you a chance to encounter rare Pokémon from the Hisui region that are normally not available in Pokémon Go. These will only add new Pokémon during the Ancient Grove and Geothermal Lagoon habitat hours, compared to running during the final 30 minutes of each habitat during the LA event.

Habitat NameHabitat Hours (local time)
Bustling Boardwalk10am to 11am, 2pm to 3pm
Ancient Grove11am to 12pm, 3pm to 4pm
Toxic Digs12pm to 1pm, 4pm to 5pm
Geothermal Lagoon1pm to 2pm, 5pm to 6pm
