Pokémon GO Announces New Max Battle Day Featuring Gigantamax Lapras
Pokemon GO has revealed that a new Max Battle Day will take place on July 19, centered around the Gigantamax form of Lapras. This event promises another chance for players to capture the iconic Kanto Pokémon that was introduced in 2024.
Lapras has been part of the Pokemon GO experience since its launch and has frequently appeared in various events. For instance, Shiny Lapras first appeared in 2019 during the Safari Zone in Sentosa, and the Shadow version was added later that year during a Halloween event. Now, players will have the opportunity to catch Lapras yet again during this special day.
This event will occur on Saturday, July 19, from 2 PM to 5 PM local time, allowing players to encounter this Pokémon in Max Battles and potentially catch its shiny variant.
Event Details:
- Date: July 19, from 2 PM to 5 PM
- Featured Pokémon: Gigantamax Lapras (can be shiny)
- Bonuses:
- Increased Remote Raid Pass limit
- Enhanced Max Particle collection limit
- Additional rewards available
- Free Timed Research starting July 14, 2025
Players are encouraged to seize this opportunity, especially since this is the first time Gigantamax Lapras has appeared since its debut in the game. Following this event, new activities, including the debut of Tatsugiri, are expected to keep players engaged throughout July.
