As summer approaches, Pokémon Go enthusiasts are buzzing with excitement over the upcoming Pokémon Go Fest scheduled for June in Jersey City. The highlight of this event is the much-anticipated debut of new forms for the beloved Pokémon, Zacian and Zamazenta.
These Warrior Pokémon are set to receive stunning new Crowned Forms, powered by the innovative Crowned Sword Energy and Crowned Shield Energy. Trainers will have the opportunity to harness these energies to transform Zacian into Crowned Sword Zacian and Zamazenta into Crowned Shield Zamazenta, respectively.
To showcase the prowess of these new forms, both Zacian and Zamazenta will be available for use in Max Battles, even though they typically can't Dynamax or Gigantamax. Their formidable special moves, Behemoth Blade and Behemoth Bash, will make them formidable competitors in these battles.
The Pokémon Go Fests in Osaka, Jersey City, and Paris will be the first venues where trainers can encounter Zacian and Zamazenta in five-star raids. These events will also offer the chance to challenge the newly introduced Crowned Sword Zacian and Crowned Shield Zamazenta in five-star raids before they become available to a broader audience.
Tickets for Pokémon Go Fest are still available, but they're selling fast. For a glimpse into what the festival might offer, check out Jupiter Hadley's coverage from last year's event, which provided an insider's look at the festivities.
