Pokémon GO recently introduced Dynamaxing to the game, allowing players to use Max Points and battle with their monsters in a new way. Now, the game has announced the arrival of Gigantamax Pokémon through a thrilling trailer.
Dynamaxing was first added to the Pokémon universe in the Gen VIII mainline games, Pokémon Sword and Shield, in November 2019. This feature allows Pokémon to become giant versions of themselves during battles and unleash powerful “Max” attacks. Pokémon GO, on the other hand, only introduced Dynamax Pokémon in August of this year.
Gigantamaxing is a special form of Dynamaxing that not only enlarges the Pokémon but also changes their physical appearance and gives them access to unique G-Max moves. Only 32 Pokémon have the ability to Gigantamax, making them even more powerful in battles.
Niantic, the developer of Pokémon GO, announced the arrival of Gigantamax Pokémon through a horror movie-style trailer, where people react to what seems like an alien invasion in their cities. The trailer showcases the power of Gigantamax Pokémon, such as Orbeetle turning into a UFO.
While the trailer does not reveal how Gigantamaxing will work in the game, it adds to the excitement for players to collect these powerful Pokémon. Despite some confusion around the introduction of Dynamaxing in the game, players are eager to add Gigantamax Gengar and Snorlax to their Pokédex.
As Pokémon GO continues to evolve and introduce new features, players can look forward to more exciting updates and challenges in the game. Stay tuned for more information on how to catch and battle with Gigantamax Pokémon in Pokémon GO.
