Astral Disruption

The Astral Disruption event was an Event that ran for two weeks in 2017, it started on the 18^th of August and ended on the 31^st of August. The event was in celebration of the solar eclipse on the 21^st of August 2017. During the event, users completed a list of tasks featuring Lunupine, Solynx, and a mysterious new Pokémon. At the conclusion of the event, Lunupine and Solynx could be used to breed Kinaster.

Story

Professor Holly and Professor Laurel notice Lunupine has been acting up. They ask that Farmers be prepared to help out if any issues arise. Soon after, Lunupine becomes more aggressive and escapes the Lab. After looking around to no avail, even with help from Sei and Sally, Niet suggests looking in the Scour Areas. After finding her in the Forest, Lunupine returns to the Lab with you.

Soon after, there's a break-in and Lunupine is gone again. Prof. Laurel suggests using Perfect Pecha Berries to lure Lunupine back, as the berries are perfect for Lunupine's Timid nature. Lunupine is lured back and downs the Perfect Pecha Berries, and it's revealed that a wild Solynx was the culprit for breaking into the lab.

After the Solynx is tired out with a battle, Prof. Laurel takes the two battered Pokémon back to the Lab. Ravyne appears but is far too excited about something to be able to understand. After calming him, Ravyne reveals that a solar eclipse is coming. With this information, Holly hypothesizes that the eclipse is messing with Lunupine's nocturnal and Solynx's diurnal lifestyles, causing them to appear erratic. After the solar eclipse, Lunupine is found with a mystery Egg. You hatch the Egg to reveal a baby Kinaster, and Holly asks you to return the Kinaster to Lunupine. As a thank you for helping Prof. Holly with Lunupine, Solynx and Kinaster, she rewarded all users who completed the event with a Premium Box.

Trivia

• The Lunupine in this event is the same as the one from the Hallowe'en 2015 Event.
  • The dialogue changed for users who did not participate in the original event, as they presumably would not have met the Lunupine beforehand.
    • This was determined by checking the user's Inventory for data from the Perfect Pecha Berry Key Item.
