Kingdom event
In Pokémon Conquest, certain kingdom events have a chance to occur in the Ransei region's kingdoms each month (where a month is an in-game "turn" for the region overall). Kingdom events can occur at random or when certain conditions are met, and will affect gameplay. These events are pre-determined several months in advance. Not all events are available in every story.
General events
Messenger
A Messenger will sometimes appear at the start of the month. The Messenger will alert the player when there is an approaching invasion, when there is a rare Pokémon appearing in a kingdom, and when certain kingdom events appear.
Professor
A Professor will offer advice about basic game mechanics once every story during May of Year 1. The next month, June of Year 1, will be the first month that enemy armies are able to attack the player's kingdoms.

Traveling merchant
One of the traveling merchants may visit, offering a large selection of rare items. These merchants have higher prices but offer Evolution items as well as high-quality supplies.

Farmers
Sometimes a Farmer will appear and ask for a monetary donation of 1000, 2500 or 5000
gold, whichever is the highest amount the player can afford at the time.
If the player donates to the farmers three times, they will hold a festival the month after the third donation as thanks for the support. This will increase the Energy of Pokémon in the main Warlord's kingdom by three levels. The farmers will also give the player three rare gift items, with the rarity of the items increasing with larger donations:
- Donations of
1000 will yield items available in Lv. 2 Shops. - Donations of
2500 will yield items available in Lv. 3 Shops. - Donations of
5000 will yield single-use held items and equipment that can only be bought from the traveling merchant.
The amount donated the third time determines the rarity of the items received.
If the farmers are rejected three times, they will instead rebel, decreasing the Energy of Pokémon present in the main Warlord's kingdom by three levels.

Training trip

A Warrior in the player's army may ask for permission to go on a training trip, after which (if permission is granted) they will be absent for several months. If the Warrior travels with a Pokémon with a Perfect Link, the Warrior will send the player letters while gone. Along with the letter, the Warrior will also send a rare item which cannot be bought from Shops (such as Razor Claw and Ornate Helmet). After several months, the Warrior will return with their Pokémon, with their Link increased by 15%, rounded down.
If the Warrior travels with a Pokémon which does not have a Perfect Link, the Warrior will not send letters and will come back early with a new Pokémon met and linked with during the trip.
Losing a battle
When a battle is lost, a Warrior may go on a trip without permission from the player. The Warrior will return some time later with three rare items.
Disappearing Pokémon
A Pokémon that shares a 100% link with its Warrior may briefly disappear, returning with one or more items.

Thieves
A gang of bandits may appear, with one of three possible scenarios. The bandits' army contains the same Pokémon and Warriors in all three cases.
- The bandits will steal an item belonging to the player's army, and must be defeated in order to recover the stolen item.
- Farmers will discover a rare item, but the bandits will attempt to steal it, and must be defeated to receive the item.
- The bandits will kidnap a Princess's Lilligant, and must be defeated in order to receive a reward item from the Princess. In the event that the player does not manage to defeat the bandits, or simply lets them escape without battling, the Princess will still get her Lilligant back. However the thieves will retain the reward item.
Seasonal events
New Year's celebration

If the player owns Fireworks, a New Year's celebration will be held in January of the new year. This will strengthen the link between Warrior and Pokémon in all kingdoms the player rules over.
Attractive kingdom
Warriors from other kingdoms will visit one of the player's kingdoms, where they can be battled and recruited.
This event has three variations depending on the season:
- In April, flowers will bloom.
- In August, a summer festival will be held (but only if the player owns Fireworks).
- In October, the leaves will turn orange.

Weather
Weather may impact some kingdoms at certain times of year. Affected kingdoms will be signified by an icon of the weather above them. Pokémon matching the weather's type in affected kingdoms will have their Energy maximized.
- In May, rainstorms (indicated by a rain cloud) may occur, maximizing the Energy of Water Pokémon in affected kingdoms.
- In August, heat waves (indicated by a sun) may occur, maximizing the Energy of Fire Pokémon in affected kingdoms.
- In November, snowstorms (indicated by a snowflake) may occur, maximizing the Energy of Ice Pokémon in affected kingdoms.

Positive events
Full kingdom
When the number of Warriors in the player's army reaches 10, 30, or 50, the Warriors will celebrate and the Energy of their Pokémon will increase by three levels.
Warriors not in battle
Warriors that have not been used in a battle against an opposing army for a while may assist in war efforts by giving 3 Max Potions, Sylph Wings, Siren Songs, Double Plays, Twice Luckys or Winged Boots. They may also receive such items from an NPC.
Four guardians

When the player has conquered at least half of all available nations, four Warriors (including Warlords) are made guardians of one stat each (Power, Wisdom, Charisma, and Capacity), appointed to the Warriors with the highest values for each particular stat. This maximizes the Energy of their Pokémon, and prevents them from leaving the army.

Motochika and Motonari
During The Legend of Ransei, after downloading (or entering a password for) the event "Motochika and Motonari" and conquering both Fontaine and Greenleaf, Motochika and Motonari will approach the player and join their army automatically.
Motochika comes with an Oshawott and a Chingling by default, while Motonari comes with a Snivy and a Ralts by default. Notably, their second default Pokémon do not appear among their default Pokémon in any other story.
This event is the only way to recruit Motochika and Motonari during The Legend of Ransei. In other stories, they appear in the wild alongside other warlords, regardless of whether the special event was ever triggered.
Negative events
Cold
Warriors may be affected by a cold, which will render the Warriors unable to perform any actions. The cold may last several months and can spread to Warriors in adjacent kingdoms. Colds can be cured immediately with Cold Medicine, or will wear off gradually over time.
Hay Fever
Warriors may be affected by hay fever, which will render the Warriors unable to perform any actions. The hay fever may last several months. Hay fever can be cured with Hayfever Pills, or will wear off gradually over time.
Dissatisfied Warriors
When the player does not use a recruited Warrior in a kingdom for a certain number of months, the Warrior will become dissatisfied and an angry face will appear on their profile page. Once they are used in the kingdom, the angry face disappears during the next month. If the recruited Warrior isn't used for a few months after the angry face appears, the Warrior will leave the army.
Strengthened opposing armies

When the player has conquered at least half of the available kingdoms and the strength of the player's army is considerably higher than opposing armies, civilians from opposing nations will notice and the strength of their army will increase. This may involve an Officer with a Gabite, who will considerably strengthen the armies of nations adjacent to the player's kingdoms.
In a similar yet distinct event, when the strength of the player's army is higher than opposing armies, all enemy kingdoms (adjacent or otherwise) will have their strength increased to a small extent.
Pokémon swarms
On rare occasions, a swarm of a rare Pokémon will appear in one of a kingdom's regular wild Pokémon locations. This overrides all wild Pokémon slots in that location with the swarm Pokémon, which will stay there for a month. When this happens, the player is notified by a Messenger at the start of the month.
Pokémon available through naturally-spawning swarms are not normally available by any other means. The kingdoms that a Pokémon can appear in directly depend on the Pokémon's type(s).
Notes:
- These swarms cannot appear during The Legend of Ransei.
- Swarms can sometimes appear in kingdoms the player does not currently control.
- Stories that make certain kingdoms or types unavailable, will therefore also make certain swarm Pokémon unable to spawn.
Alternatively, swarms can be spawned at will through the use of Passwords. When a password is used, it will spawn a swarm of its associated Pokémon during the next month, guaranteed to be in a kingdom the player controls, and ignores spawn conditions related to types or kingdoms. Passwords can spawn most Pokémon in the game (with restrictions), they are not limited to spawning Pokémon that are otherwise exclusive to swarms.
| Pokémon | Kingdom(s) | |
|---|---|---|
| Audino | Aurora | |
| Pansear | Ignis | |
| Pansage | Greenleaf | |
| Panpour | Fontaine | |
| Croagunk | Pugilis, Viperia | |
| Emolga | Violight | |
| Anorith | Chrysalia, Cragspur | |
| Gible | Terrera, Dragnor | |
| Beldum | Illusio, Valora | |
| Sneasel | Yaksha, Nixtorm | |
| Drifloon | Avia, Spectra | |
Eevee swarms
Swarms of Eevee work differently than normal swarms. They occur much more frequently, are able to appear during The Legend of Ransei (as well as any other story where the Hero/Heroine appears), and can only spawn if the Hero/Heroine is in the player's army, but not currently linked to an Eevee.
While the conditions are met, Eevee swarms can occur in Park locations, which are in the following kingdoms:
Legendary Pokémon

Meeting certain conditions will cause a legendary Pokémon to appear, often in a special kingdom location exclusive to the encounter. Each legendary Pokémon can only link with one specific Warlord, and the requirements to trigger the Pokémon's event involve their associated Warlord.
| Pokémon | Location | Condition | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Arceus | Aurora (Sacred Ruins) |
During Two Heroes of Ransei, have the Hero/Heroine at Rank III (by having an 80% link with an Eeveelution, not counting Eevee) and control Aurora. | |
