Pokémon GO's Upcoming Season Hints at Dynamax and Gigantamax, Welcomes Morpeko
Exciting developments are brewing in the world of Pokémon GO! Developer Niantic has teased the potential arrival of Dynamax and Gigantamax mechanics, alongside the introduction of Morpeko, the form-changing Pokémon. This announcement fuels speculation about a significant shift in gameplay.
The addition of Morpeko, capable of changing forms during battle via Charged Attacks, is a key element of this update. Niantic's statement highlights "big changes, big battles, and…big Pokémon," strongly suggesting the impending implementation of Dynamax and Gigantamax. These size-altering mechanics, originally featured in Pokémon Sword and Shield, allow Pokémon to dramatically increase in size and power.
The upcoming season, slated to begin in September, is rumored to center around Galar region Pokémon, further bolstering the Dynamax/Gigantamax theory. While details remain scarce, the "hungry" and "big" hints point towards a substantial gameplay overhaul. The introduction of Morpeko might also pave the way for other Galar Pokémon like Mimikyu and Aegislash.
While the exact mechanics of Dynamax and Gigantamax in Pokémon GO remain unconfirmed, the speculation is rampant. The original games utilized Power Spots; whether a similar system will be adopted in Pokémon GO remains to be seen.
Beyond Morpeko, Pokémon GO players can still participate in several ongoing events. The Snorkeling Pikachu, available until August 20th, can be caught in one-star raids or through field research. The Welcome Party Special Research tasks also continue, providing rewards for new trainers who team up. However, access to this event is restricted to trainers above level 15. Stay tuned for further announcements as Niantic reveals more details about the game's exciting future.
