"Pokemon GO Announces Upcoming Gigantamax Debut in Future Event"

Get ready, Pokemon GO trainers, because a colossal crustacean is crashing into the game on February 1 for the Max Battle Day event! Gigantamax Kingler will make its grand debut, and you won't want to miss out on this six-star Max Battle opportunity. From 2 pm to 5 pm local time, you can encounter this mighty Water-type Pokemon, and if luck's on your side, you might even catch a shiny one. To boost your team's performance, don't forget to utilize Max Mushrooms, the game-changing item that amps up the damage dealt by your Dynamax and Gigantamax critters during these epic battles.

The Max Battle Day event is packed with bonuses to make your experience even more rewarding. You'll be able to collect up to 1600 Max Particles, essential for participating in Max Battles. Every Power Spot will transform into a hotspot for Gigantamax Battles, refreshing more often and yielding 8x more particles than usual. Between 1 pm and 5 pm on February 1, you'll enjoy double Max Particles while exploring, and you'll only need to travel a quarter of the usual distance to earn them.

For those looking to maximize their gains, a new $5 ticket will be available, granting you 1 Max Mushroom, 25000 XP, double XP from Max Battles, and an increased Max Particle collection limit of 5600. Additionally, a $7.99 bundle on the Pokemon GO Web Store will offer six packs of Max Particles, ensuring you're well-equipped for the event.

While Gigantamax Kingler takes the spotlight on February 1, it's just one of the exciting events lined up for next month. The Lunar New Year event kicks off on January 29 and runs through February 1, offering more opportunities for fun and rewards. And don't forget the return of Shadow Ho-Oh in a Shadow Raid Day on January 19, along with the arrival of more Galar Pokemon in the coming days. With so much happening, February is shaping up to be an unmissable month for Pokemon GO players!
