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 double the damage dealt by your Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokémon during Max Battles, significantly boosting your Max Moves. You can stack multiple Max Mushrooms to extend this effect, but remember, it won't increase the damage multiplier beyond the initial doubling.

Teaming up with other trainers can make a big difference. Use the Campfire app to locate both Max Battles and fellow trainers who are ready to join forces. Get out there and enjoy the battle!
