Pokémon Go Max Out Season Unveils Dynamax Feature

Get Ready to GO Big! Dynamax Pokémon Arrive in Pokémon GO's Max Out Season

Pokémon GO is introducing Dynamax Pokémon as part of its upcoming Max Out season, bringing a giant-sized adventure to mobile trainers. The event runs from September 10th, 10:00 a.m. to September 15th, 8:00 p.m. local time.

Prepare for colossal encounters! The Max Out season kicks off with 1-star Max Battles featuring Dynamax versions of Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Skwovet, and Wooloo. Trainers can battle and catch these Dynamax Pokémon, including their shiny variants. These Dynamax forms, once caught, can be used by their evolved forms as well.

The excitement doesn't stop there! Special Field Research tasks will be available, alongside PokéStop Showcases offering event-themed Pokémon and rewards. A Seasonal Special Research story focusing on Max Battles will also launch on September 3rd, 10:00 a.m. local time, lasting until December 3rd, 2024, at 9:59 a.m. local time. Rewards include Max Particles and a new avatar item.

For those eager to jump into the action, a Max Particle Pack Bundle (4,800 Max Particles) will be available for $7.99 on the Pokémon GO web store starting September 8th, 6:00 p.m. PDT. Max Particles are crucial for Dynamax battles.

Rumors suggest the arrival of Power Spots next month, serving as key locations for Max Battles, Dynamax Pokémon encounters, and Max Particle collection. While Niantic hasn't confirmed this, the anticipation is building.

According to Eurogamer, Pokémon GO senior producer John Funtanilla hinted at the possibility of some Dynamax-capable Pokémon also being able to Mega Evolve. However, the future of Gigantamax Pokémon in Pokémon GO remains unclear, despite being teased at this year's Pokémon Worlds. Niantic promises further details on Dynamax battles soon.
