Pokemon GO's Max Battle Day: Gigantamax Kingler Arrives!
Get ready for the arrival of Gigantamax Kingler in Pokémon GO! This powerful Water-type Pokémon makes its debut on February 1st, 2025, as part of a special Max Battle Day event running from 2 pm to 5 pm local time.
This event marks a significant addition to the game's roster of Gigantamax Pokémon.
