It’s almost the end of summer, and Niantic is pulling out all the stops with a pair of bashes for its two biggest games: “Pokemon Go” and “Monster Hunter Now.” The first event is Pokemon Go Fest 2025: Max Finale, which features a return of previous Gigantamax Pokemon for Max Battles. These are essentially a new type of raid that is harder than the traditional ones, but also involves up to 100 people and requires more tactical groups. Players should bring in a team of three, which have different Max moves that can act as a shield, healer or offense.
