Niantic, the company behind the popular mobile game Pokémon Go, has recently announced exciting new updates for the upcoming season of the game called “Max Out.” Set to begin on September 3 and run through December 3, this season will introduce Dynamax Pokémon and Galar Pokémon to the game.
Dynamax Pokémon, which were first introduced in Pokémon Sword & Shield, are supersized creatures that can now be encountered and caught in Pokémon Go. Players will be able to participate in Max Battles, where they can catch Dynamaxed Pokémon and even Dynamax their own Pokémon. The first Dynamaxed Pokémon available will include fan favorites such as Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle, along with their evolutions and shiny forms.
In addition to Dynamax Pokémon, players can also look forward to the inclusion of Galar Pokémon in Pokémon Go. This includes the three starters from the Galar region: Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble, along with their evolutions. Niantic has even prepared a Special Research story with branching paths that allows players to choose one of the Galar starters.
To make the new season even more exciting, Niantic will be hosting several raids during the Max Out season, giving players the opportunity to team up and take on powerful Pokémon together. Additionally, the Go Battle League will be returning with eleven cups for players to participate in. This includes the Galar Cups, which are exclusively for Sword & Shield Pokémon, as well as the Catch Cup for Pokémon caught during the Max Out season.
Overall, the upcoming season of Pokémon Go promises to be an exciting time for players. With the introduction of Dynamax Pokémon, Galar Pokémon, and various in-game events, there will be plenty of opportunities for trainers to explore, battle, and catch new Pokémon. So mark your calendars and get ready to embark on new adventures in Pokémon Go’s Max Out season!
