As summer approaches, Pokémon Go enthusiasts are buzzing with excitement about the upcoming Pokémon Go Fest in June, set to take place in Jersey City. One of the most thrilling announcements is the debut of new forms for the beloved Pokémon, Zacian and Zamazenta. These Warrior Pokémon are set to receive their 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.
To demonstrate the power of these new forms, players will be able to deploy 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 initial 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, so don't miss out on this exciting opportunity.
