Tips for Gigantamax Kingler Max Battle Day Pokémon GO Event
To make the most of the Gigantamax Kingler Max Battle Day event, consider using Max Mushrooms. These items double the damage dealt by your Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokémon during Max Battles, making your attacks more potent. You can use multiple Max Mushrooms consecutively to extend the duration, but note that it won't increase the damage multiplier further.
Teaming up with other Trainers is also key. Utilize Campfire to find both Max Battles and other players to join forces with. With these tips in mind, you're set for a successful and enjoyable event!
