Trainers, our Dynamax research has uncovered a special type of Dynamaxing. Get ready for Gigantamaxing!
Only certain Pokémon can Gigantamax, however—the majority will keep their usual appearance when they Dynamax.

Gigantamax Pokémon don’t just become bigger! They also change appearance, showing off their characteristics in new ways! Each Gigantamax Pokémon can use a unique G-Max Move! Regular Dynamax Pokémon can’t use G-Max Moves at all! http://bit.ly/2JkaM1Q

You can catch Gigantamax Pokémon for your team by participating in Max Raid Battles, but it seems they’re very rare—finding one won’t be easy!

Gigantamax Corviknight
Gigantamax energy causes armor on Corviknight’s wings to separate and become blade birds, which can fly independently. Corviknight launches these blade birds, using them to slash its opponents.

Meet Alcremie, the Cream Pokémon! Alcremie can produce whipped cream, which becomes richer the happier Alcremie is feeling. Many pastry chefs strive to have an Alcremie as their partner.

Gigantamax Alcremie
The cream pouring out of its body hardens upon impact—the stronger the impact, the harder it becomes.
Decorations on its body are as hard as diamonds. It seems most attacks won’t leave a scratch!

Meet Rolycoly, the Coal Pokémon! Its red eye can illuminate dark areas, while it uses the lump of coal attached to its body like a wheel to travel smoothly, even over rough terrain.
