Summary
- New Adventure Effects are rumored to be coming to Pokemon GO with the debut of Black and White Kyurem.
- White Kyurem's Ice Burn effect slows down the target ring during Pokemon encounters.
- Black Kyurem's Freeze Shock effect paralyzes Pokemon during encounters.
A recent leak suggests that Pokemon GO enthusiasts can look forward to new Adventure Effects with the arrival of Black and White Kyurem. These legendary Pokemon are set to make their debut in Pokemon GO during the GO Tour: Unova event scheduled for March 1 and 2, 2025.
In the expansive world of Pokemon, Black and White Kyurem are unique fusions of Kyurem with either Zekrom or Reshiram, respectively. While Zekrom and Reshiram have already graced the AR game, fans have eagerly awaited the introduction of their fused counterparts. Niantic, the developer behind Pokemon GO, has confirmed the inclusion of Black and White Kyurem in the upcoming event. Additionally, a leak from Pokeminers hints at special Adventure Effects associated with these legendary creatures that could significantly enhance the Pokemon catching experience.
The leak reveals two new Adventure Effects: "Ice Burn" for White Kyurem and "Freeze Shock" for Black Kyurem. Adventure Effects are unique abilities in Pokemon GO that temporarily grant players specific bonuses. Ice Burn is expected to slow down the target ring during Pokemon encounters, simplifying the task of achieving Great or Excellent throws. On the other hand, Freeze Shock would immobilize a Pokemon, preventing it from knocking back Pokeballs or moving around the screen, which would be particularly useful when dealing with elusive or challenging Pokemon.

- White Kyurem: Ice Burn, slows down the target ring during Pokemon encounters
- Black Kyurem: Freeze Shock, paralyzes Pokemon during encounters
In addition to these exciting Adventure Effects, the leak also mentions a new item called the "Lucky Trinket." This item would allow players to instantly become Lucky Friends with another player, provided they are already at least Great Friends. However, this effect is temporary and lasts only a few hours. Achieving Lucky Friends status is a rare occurrence in Pokemon GO, even among Best Friends, making the Lucky Trinket a valuable tool for those looking to secure Lucky trades.
While the GO Tour: Unova event is still a few months away, Pokemon GO players have other events to look forward to in the meantime. The evolution line for Corviknight will be introduced during the Steely Resolve event on January 21. Additionally, five-star Raids featuring Deoxys and Dialga, as well as Dynamax versions of the Legendary Bird Trio from January 20 to February 3, offer players more opportunities to engage with the game and catch powerful Pokemon.
