Features
Gigantamax Debut!
The following Pokémon will make its Pokémon GO Gigantamax debut in six-star Max Battles!
- Gigantamax Lapras
Gigantamax Pokémon cannot be transferred to Pokémon HOME.
Introducing Max Mushrooms
The Max Mushroom is a new item that temporarily amplies the Fast Attacks, Charged Attacks, and Max Move attacks of your Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokémon in Max Battles. While active in a Max Battle, your attacks will do double damage until the item timer runs out. Using multiple Max Mushrooms consecutively will lengthen the duration of the effect, but it will not increase the damage multiplier.
Remember to check your Item Bag while in a Max Battle lobby and use any Max Mushrooms you’ve acquired. You can also see whether other Trainers in the lobby have Max Mushrooms active.
