A new Special Research story with branching paths will be available to Trainers! Throughout Pokémon GO: Max Out, you’ll be able to reach new heights with your chosen partner Pokémon.

Depending on which partner Pokémon you choose, your Postcard Book background will change to celebrate your choice!


GO Big

A Dynamax Debut

Breaking news: Dynamax Pokémon are emerging in Pokémon GO! Reports indicate that they are appearing at mysterious new Power Spots being discovered across the globe. Rally your friends to take on new Max Battles, catch these mighty Pokémon, and unlock the power of newly discovered Max Particles.

Sources say that starting in September, Trainers around the world will begin to uncover Power Spots on the in-game map. These Power Spots are believed to eventually contain Dynamax Pokémon that can be challenged in battle. Be sure to get a head start by scouting out these Power Spots and collecting Max Particles before embarking on your first series of Max Battles!

Prepare yourself for one of the biggest updates to Pokémon GO yet! Stay tuned for the latest research on Dynamax Pokémon, Max Battles, Power Spots, Max Particles, and more here.
