Urshifu, Gigantamax Machamp Arrive in Pokémon Go Finale

• The season is wrapping up with a spectacular finale
• Go Battle Week runs from May 21 to May 27
• Gigantamax Max Battle Day is scheduled for May 25

Season Finale: Go Battle Week brings the Might and Mastery season to a close with a blockbuster lineup, featuring the debut of Urshifu and Gigantamax Machamp. From May 21 to 27, this event offers one last push toward mastery, rewarding your dedication with new Pokémon encounters, evolutions, and special bonuses.

Your Kubfu can now evolve into Urshifu. You'll need 200 Kubfu Candy and a strategic approach: while Kubfu is your buddy, defeat 30 Dark-type or 30 Water-type Pokémon in raids or Max Battles to unlock the Single Strike or Rapid Strike Style.

The free Special Research continues the Might and Mastery narrative, granting additional Kubfu Candy, Mystical Components, and encounters like a Charcadet with a unique backdrop. You'll also have opportunities to evolve Mankey, Seel, and Froakie into powerful forms with exclusive moves.

Premium experiences are available too. The $1.99 Timed Research offers two Premium Battle Passes, Lucky Eggs, and event-themed Pokémon. For $7.99, the Fuzzy Fighter Special Research reunites you with Dynamax Kubfu, packed with extra items and season-themed encounters. Both are available until the event ends, alongside the Fuzzy Fighter Ultra Ticket Box in the Pokémon Go Web Store.

The climax arrives on Sunday, May 25, with the six-star debut of Gigantamax Machamp. From 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM local time, every Power Spot will feature Gigantamax Battles offering increased Max Particles and a higher collection limit. Use these Pokémon Go codes for additional free rewards.

A $4.99 event ticket for Max Battle Day unlocks exclusive Timed Research, rewarding 25,000 XP, a Max Mushroom, and significant Max Battle boosts. Before the event, a separate Timed Research will guide you to a Dynamax Beldum, a strong counter for the upcoming Machamp battles.
