Moongiest Beam’s Adventure Effectcan be activated for 10 minutes by using 3,000 Stardust and 3Necrozma Candy. The timer can be extended for additional uses of Stardust and Candy. For the activated duration, Pokemon that only appear at night will spawn in the wild for players to battle and encounter no matter the actual time.

Players have cited excellent luck when using the Adventure Effect, withSchmiltankon X commenting, “Tested out Moongeist beam on stream…A spawn EVERY minute and look what I got in 40 minutes of using it…(niantic W?!)”

The post includes images of a Shiny Gligar andDawn Form-capable Rockruffcatch that were caught while the Adventure effect was active.

However, some have pointed out a possible long-term setback. One comment read, “This is only good if the spawn pool rotates every few weeks. If it stays the same, it will be forgotten about in 3 months.” Another stated, “The spawn pool has to change right? Why else would they show what could spawn from it?”

The original poster agreed that the pool will need to change regularly to keep the Adventure Effect useful, but for the time being, fans seem to agree that this is a great new mechanic for Pokemon Go.

While Sunsteel Strike, the attack delivered byDusk Mane Necrozma, doesn’t seem to be getting quite as much love, players are finding the opportunity to catch rare species refreshing and fun. Hopefully, Niantic will continue to add similar Adventure Effects in future events and updates.
