Pokemon GO Sinnoh Stones: How To Get Them
Click to enlargeGO Battle League
The first and most reliable way to get a Pokemon GO Sinnoh Stone is to participate in the GO Battle League. By winning two battles in a set, you’ll earn a mystery reward. This reward will be one item out of a pool of options, one of which is a Sinnoh Stone.
In fact, this method has been so successful, many Pokemon GO players who battle in the GBL frequently end up throwing out Sinnoh Stones because they accumulate so many.
Trainer battles
Standard Trainer battles can reward Sinnoh Stones in Pokemon GO too. This is namely the battles against Team Leaders and your friends.
Winning battles against Candela, Blanche, or Spark will grant a reward once a day. As you can probably guess, a Pokemon GO Sinnoh Stones are amongst these potential rewards.
Battling against a friend can also reward you with a Sinnoh Stone, being part of the rewards you can earn up to three times a day for battling against a friend. If you're up against a tough opponent, don't worry, as you don't need to win to qualify for these rewards that include Sinnoh Stones in Pokemon GO.
Field Research Tasks
By earning seven stamps for completing daily Field Research tasks, you’ll earn a Research Breakthrough reward. In Pokemon GO, Sinnoh Stones are of course part of these potential rewards.
The final way to earn Sinnoh Stones in Pokemon GO is not always available. Typically, when there is a Community Day featuring a Pokemon who requires a Sinnoh Stone to evolve (Ex. Roselia, Electabuzz), there is a Timed Research questline that rewards them.
