This Rockruff will only be obtainable through January 10, 2018, so make sure you get it soon upon receiving your copy of Ultra Sun or Ultra Moon. If you are playing Ultra Sun, this Rockruff will also know Fire Fang, whereas it will know Thunder Fang if you’re playing Ultra Moon. This Rockruff will be on Level 10, it will be holding a Focus Band and it will know the moves Tackle, Bite and Happy Hour. Talk to him and he will give you your Rockruff. Now, continue your game and go to any Pokémon Center, where a delivery man in an orange and blue shirt will be waiting for you.
Once you are in the Mystery Gift menu, select “Receive Gift.” According to Serebii, this Rockruff will be available via Wi-Fi event, as opposed to a serial code, so select “Get via Internet.” You will be asked about connecting to the internet, to which you should respond “Yes.” Your game should pick up the Rockruff as a Mystery Gift.
Start the game up again, but now select “Mystery Gift” from the main menu. To get this Rockruff, you will want to select “Mystery Gift” from the game’s main menu instead of “New Game.” If Mystery Gift is not yet available, then start your game, play until you get to a good stopping point, then save and quit the game. It is important that you receive this Rockruff because the only way to get a Dusk Form Lycanroc is by evolving this specific Rockruff. Starting tomorrow, there will be a Mystery Gift event for Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon to receive a special Rockruff. However, getting your hands on a Dusk Form Lycanroc is kind of complicated, but if you follow the instructions below, you should be fine. If you pick up a copy of one of these games relatively early, you’ll have access to a new form of Lycanroc, its Dusk Form. Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon come out tomorrow, November 17.
