Gigantamax Kingler Max Battle Day: Your Complete Guide

Event Date & Time:

The Gigantamax Kingler event takes place 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.
• Pre-event bonus (12 AM - 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 from the Nearby menu beforehand.

Remember to regularly check your 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 a boosted 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 not payable with PokéCoins.

Event Tips:

Utilize Max Mushrooms to temporarily double your Dynamax/Gigantamax Pokémon's damage during Max Battles. Remember, using multiple Mushrooms doesn't stack the damage multiplier. Team up with other Trainers via Campfire to tackle the battles more efficiently.
