As summer approaches, Pokémon Go fans are in for a treat with the exciting announcement of the upcoming Pokémon Go Fest in June, set to take place in Jersey City. The highlight of the event is undoubtedly the introduction 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, enhancing their battle prowess.
To showcase the might of these new forms, players will be able to utilize both Zacian and Zamazenta in Max Battles, despite their usual inability to Dynamax and Gigantamax. Their formidable special moves, Behemoth Blade and Behemoth Bash, will make them fierce 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 new Crowned Sword Zacian and Crowned Shield Zamazenta in five-star raids. Tickets for this year's Pokémon Go Fest are still available, but act quickly as they are selling fast.
