Gigantamax Kingler Max Battle Day: A Pokémon GO Event Guide
Event Start Date & Time:
The Gigantamax Kingler event kicks off on Saturday, February 1, 2025, from 2 PM to 5 PM local time. Gigantamax Kingler will appear in six-star Max Battles, with a chance to encounter a Shiny version.
Event Bonuses:
Several bonuses enhance the event:
- During the event (2 PM - 5 PM): Increased Max Particle collection limit (1600), all Power Spots host Gigantamax Battles, increased Power Spot refresh rate, and 8x Max Particles from Power Spots.
- From 12 AM to 5 PM: 2x Max Particles from exploration and reduced adventuring distance (1/4) for Max Particle acquisition. Note: The last two bonuses require collecting all visible Max Particles in the Nearby menu beforehand.
Remember to regularly check the Nearby menu for the Max Particles icon.
Event Exclusives & Tickets:
A $5 (or equivalent) Timed Research is available during the event (2 PM - 5 PM), rewarding a Max Mushroom, 25,000 XP, 2x XP from Max Battles, and an increased Max Particle collection limit (5600). Tickets can be purchased and gifted to Great Friends or higher, but only until 4 PM local time. Purchases are non-refundable and cannot be made with PokéCoins.
Event Tips:
Utilize Max Mushrooms to double your Dynamax/Gigantamax Pokémon's damage during Max Battles. Multiple Mushrooms can be used consecutively, but this won't increase the damage multiplier beyond double. Team up with other Trainers via Campfire to tackle battles more efficiently.
Pokémon GO is available now.
