Pokemon GO Leak Hints at New Adventure Effects for Black and White Kyurem

A recent leak from reputable Pokemon GO dataminers, Pokeminers, suggests exciting new additions to the game with the arrival of Black and White Kyurem in early March 2025. These Legendary Pokemon, the fusions of Kyurem with Zekrom and Reshiram respectively, are slated to appear during the GO Tour: Unova event. The leak reveals the introduction of two new Adventure Effects:

• White Kyurem's Ice Burn: This effect temporarily slows down the target ring during Pokemon encounters, significantly improving the chances of landing Great or Excellent throws.

• Black Kyurem's Freeze Shock: This effect temporarily paralyzes the encountered Pokemon, preventing it from moving or fending off Pokeballs. This will prove invaluable when catching particularly elusive creatures.

These temporary bonuses, activated by having the respective Kyurem as your buddy, promise to revolutionize Pokemon catching strategies.

More than just Kyurem:

The leak also unveils a potentially game-changing item: the Lucky Trinket. This item instantly elevates the friendship status between two players to Lucky Friends (provided they are already Great Friends or better), unlocking the benefits of Lucky Trades for a limited time. Given the rarity of achieving Lucky Friend status, this item will be a highly sought-after commodity.

Other Upcoming Events:

While the GO Tour: Unova event is still some time off, Pokemon GO players have plenty to look forward to in the near future. The Corviknight evolution line arrives on January 21st during the Steely Resolve event. Five-star raids featuring Deoxys and Dialga are also on the horizon. Finally, don't miss the chance to encounter Dynamax versions of the Legendary Bird Trio from January 20th to February 3rd.
