Since its introduction in Pokemon GO, the Sinnoh Stone has been the key for evolving various Pokemon into their fourth-generation forms introduced back in the Sinnoh-based games, Pokemon Diamond and Pearl; these include Roselia into Roserade, Electabuzz into Electivire, and Gligar into Gliscor. However, Sinnoh Stones aren’t obtainable through easy means like PokeStops. So, let’s get into how to get your own Sinnoh Stone in Pokemon GO.

How To Get A Sinnoh Stone In Pokemon GO
If you’re playing Pokemon GO day-to-day, a straightforward way to get a Sinnoh Stone is by completing Field Research tasks. After completing a task for the seventh day in a row, there is a chance you’ll receive a Sinnoh Stone as one of your rewards.
Although, if you are trying to get a Sinnoh Stone in a hurry, you can also get one as a potential reward for PvP battles – which you can have against an AI opponent once a day, and three times against other players. These two methods bearing a Sinnoh Stone can be a bit rare, so you might need a few attempts to be successful, but you’ll be definitely able to get one nevertheless!
