Habitat hours make a return once again in Pokémon Go for Go Tour: Sinnoh Global. This time, however, two of the habitats have been given a twist with the introduction of space-time anomalies.

A staple of every major Pokémon Go event - from Go Fests to Go Tours - the four habitat hours for Go Tour: Sinnoh Global are Bustling Boardwalk, Ancient Grove, Toxic Digs and Geothermal Lagoon.

Both days of Go Tour: Sinnoh Global will cycle through these four habitat hours, giving you ample time to catch the Pokémon appearing more frequently in the wild and those appearing in raids, including Origin Forme Dialga and Origin Forme Palkia.

Below you'll find the rotating habitat schedule, along with every Pokemon appearing in each habitat, for Go Tour: Sinnoh Global and a look at what happens during space-time anomalies.

Habitat schedule times for Pokémon Go Tour Sinnoh Global

Go Tour: Sinnoh Global - running between 10am to 6pm (local time) on Saturday 24th February to Sunday 25th February - is divided into four habitat hours: Bustling Boardwalk, Ancient Grove, Toxic Digs and Geothermal Lagoon.

Two of these habitats, Ancient Grove and Geothermal Lagoon, experience space-time anomalies, which you can learn more about below.

Since each habitat occurs twice a day, they are all available for a total of four hours during this event. During these hours, a specific set of Pokémon tied to its theme will appear more frequently in the wild. You will also see changes in the raids on offer and which Unown forms are attracted to Incense.

The habitats change every hour on the hour and follow the local time for your region. This means, no matter where you live, you'll experience the following schedule:

  • 10am to 11am - Bustling Boardwalk
  • 11am to 12pm - Ancient Grove
  • 12pm to 1pm - Toxic Digs
  • 1pm to 2pm - Geothermal Lagoon
  • 2pm to 3pm - Bustling Boardwalk
  • 3pm to 4pm - Ancient Grove
  • 4pm to 5pm - Toxic Digs
  • 5pm to 6pm - Geothermal Lagoon

You'll also want to keep an eye out for the Pokémon who have increased shiny rates throughout Go Tour: Sinnoh Global, which are:

  • Lucas's Hat Pikachu
  • Dawn's Hat Pikachu
  • Rei's Cap Pikachu
  • Akari's Kerchief Pikachu
  • Turtwig
  • Chimchar
  • Piplup
  • Stunky

Space-time anomalies in Pokémon Go Tour Sinnoh Global: Raid schedule explained

Space-time anomalies offer a twist to two of the habitat hours running during Go Tour: Sinnoh. Just like in the game where this feature originates from, space-time anomalies affect the Pokémon you can encounter in the wild but, unlike in Pokémon Legends: Arceus where these Pokémon came from the future, in Pokémon Go these creatures arrive from the past.

Space-time anomalies will occur during the Ancient Grove and Geothermal Lagoon habitat hours.

Pokémon from the Hisui region will appear during these habitat hours, which is perfect if you'd like to catch their shiny forms. (Hisuian Qwilfish is especially cool with its purple-grey design.) You'll also be able to attract Unowns H, I, S and U using Incense - keep in mind that Daily Adventure Incense will not attract these Unowns.

Finally, the Pokémon appearing in raids will change when a space-time anomaly is occurring and we've outlined these differences below:
