Tips for Gigantamax Kingler Max Battle Day Pokémon GO Event

To maximize your success during the Gigantamax Kingler Max Battle Day event, consider using Max Mushrooms. These items temporarily double the damage your Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokémon deal during Max Battles, making your attacks much more effective. You can use multiple Max Mushrooms consecutively to extend the duration of this effect, though it won't increase the damage multiplier beyond the initial doubling.

Additionally, teaming up with other Trainers can significantly enhance your chances of success. Utilize Campfire to find both Max Battles and other players to join forces with. With these tips and the event's bonuses, you're set for a thrilling Max Battle Day!
