Pokémon GO's Might and Mastery season reaches its thrilling conclusion. The climactic Final Strike: GO Battle Week launches on May 21st, 2025, running through May 27th, completing Kubfu's evolutionary journey.

Final Strike: GO Battle Week Highlights

After weeks of dedicated training, trainers can finally evolve their Kubfu into the legendary Urshifu - with two distinct fighting styles to choose from. Your battle strategy determines which form you'll unlock.

To obtain the Single Strike Style, keep Kubfu as your buddy and defeat 30 Dark-type Pokémon in raids or Max Battles. For the Rapid Strike Style during this special event week, accomplish the same feat against 30 Water-types instead.

A continuation of the seasonal narrative arrives through Special Research available until June 3rd, 2025. This questline rewards Kubfu Candy, Mysterious Components, and unique encounters including Charcadet with an exclusive background.

Gigantamax Machamp Max Battle Day - May 25th

Mark your calendars for this explosive event from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time. Gigantamax Machamp makes its six-star Max Battle debut, accompanied by valuable bonuses:

• Max Particles earned at 1/4 the normal walking distance
• Max Particle storage limit increased to 1,600
• All Power Spots feature Gigantamax Battles
• 8× Max Particle rewards from battles
• Two additional daily Special Trades

Remember to collect Max Mushrooms during the event. These valuable items temporarily double your Dynamax or Gigantamax Pokémon's attack power. While using multiple mushrooms extends the duration, the damage boost remains constant.
