Get ready for the debut of Gigantamax Kingler in Pokémon GO! This powerful Water-type Pokémon will make its first appearance on February 1st, 2025, during a special Max Battle Day event.

This event offers a fantastic opportunity to encounter Gigantamax Kingler in six-star Max Battles, with a chance to snag a shiny variant. To boost your battle performance, utilize Max Mushrooms—items that temporarily amplify the damage output of Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokémon in Max Battles.

Max Battle Day Event Details:

  • Date & Time: Saturday, February 1st, 2025, 2 pm to 5 pm local time.
  • Featured Pokémon: Gigantamax Kingler (six-star Max Battles).
  • Max Mushroom Usage: Players can leverage Max Mushrooms for a damage advantage.
  • In-Game Store Offers: A new $7.99 bundle featuring six Max Particle packs will be available on the Pokémon GO Web Store. A $5 ticket offers a Max Mushroom, 25,000 XP, double XP from Max Battles, and a boosted Max Particle collection limit of 5600.

Event Bonuses:

  • Increased Max Particle Collection: The limit is increased to 1600 Max Particles.
  • Power Spot Enhancements: All Power Spots will host Gigantamax Battles, refresh more frequently, and yield 8x more particles.
  • Bonus Particle Collection (February 1st, 1 pm to 5 pm local time): Double Max Particles while exploring, and a reduced adventure distance (1/4) for particle acquisition.

Beyond Gigantamax Kingler, February promises more exciting events. The Lunar New Year event (January 29th – February 1st) is already underway, and a Shadow Ho-Oh Shadow Raid Day is scheduled for January 19th. Additional Galar Pokémon are also expected to arrive in the coming days. Prepare for a month packed with Pokémon GO action!
