Summary
- Fans eagerly await Gigantamax in Pokemon GO and may have found a hint from the professor.
- Data miners found new G-Max moves hinting at a potential Gigantamax feature.
- Speculation rises over a spooky Pokemon GO event for Max Out season with a possible Gigantamax Gengar.
Pokemon GO fans have spotted a subtle hint about the Gigantamax feature, something that the community has been eagerly awaiting. Dynamax and Gigantamax have been a subject of rumors for several months now, and while many were expecting both of them would be released in Pokemon GO together, only Dynamax made its debut during the Max Out season.
In a new post on the Pokemon GO subreddit, user Badandaverage spotted an easy-to-miss detail in the game. In the latest part of the Galar Calling Special Research in Pokemon GO, the professor hints that a "gigantic" discovery is around the corner. Considering that the initial parts of the Special Research were focused on the Dynamax feature, fans believe that the remainder of the quest might center on Gigantamax instead. Additionally, another dialogue suggests that Team GO Rocket might get some Dynamax Pokemon in the future.
G-Max Moves Were Recently Datamined in Pokemon GO
Niantic had previously denied any claims of Gigantamax being added to Pokemon GO, so this speculation would seem farfetched at first. However, the content found by data miners contradicts Niantic's comments. Recently, dataminers discovered that four new moves were added to the game: G-Max Cannonade for Blastoise, G-Max Terror for Gengar, G-Max Vinelash for Venusaur, and Rage Fist. Of these, Rage Fist's addition was eventually confirmed as part of Pokemon GO's November Community Day, so there is a good chance that the rest get introduced to the game as well.
Over on Reddit, fans are more excited about the release of Gigantamax than Dynamax, mainly due to the addition of the special G-Max moves. Some are already speculating which Pokemon will get the Gigantamax form first, and fans seem to be in favor of Gengar. This is because Halloween is right around the corner, and many believe that Niantic will announce a spooky Pokemon GO event for the Max Out season. Gigantamax Gengar would be a perfect fit for the event, considering it is one of the most popular Ghost-type Pokemon.
