With summer on the horizon, it's no surprise that Pokémon Go is buzzing with excitement for the upcoming Pokémon Go Fest in June, set to take place in Jersey City. One of the most thrilling announcements is the debut of new forms for the beloved Pokémon, Zacian and Zamazenta!
These Warrior Pokémon are set to receive new Crowned Forms, powered by the newly introduced Crowned Sword Energy and Crowned Shield Energy. Trainers will have the opportunity to harness these energies to transform Zacian and Zamazenta into Crowned Sword Zacian and Crowned Shield Zamazenta, respectively.
To demonstrate the power of these new forms, you'll be able to utilize both Zacian and Zamazenta in Max Battles, despite their usual inability to Dynamax and Gigantamax. Additionally, their formidable special moves, Behemoth Blade and Behemoth Bash, will make them highly competitive in max battles.
**Festa!** The Pokémon Go Fests in Osaka, Jersey City, and Paris will be the initial venues where trainers can encounter Zacian and Zamazenta in five-star raids before they become available to the broader player community. Participants will also have the chance to challenge the Crowned Sword Zacian and Crowned Shield Zamazenta in five-star raids.
