Pokemon GO Lustrous Odyssey Event: Dates, Dusk Form Lycanroc Debut, and More

Niantic has been churning out the in-game events for Pokemon GO, including a New Year’s event to start 2024 right. Now, they’ve announced an exciting new debut with the Lustrous Odyssey event this January.

Pokemon GO events in January 2024 are already happening, and we’re getting our first new debut of the year with Dusk Form Lycanroc. While previously, trainers could encounter Rockruff and evolve it to its Midday or Midnight forms, this new form is making its first appearance in Pokemon GO for the event.
